Review of HVDC Circuit Breakers Topologies
(2017-05)
Voltage Source Converter-High Voltage Direct Current (VSC-HVDC) is the most efficient and reliable method for electrical power transmission over long distances. The greatest challenge with VSC-HVDC system is that short-circuit ...
Development of a Wavelet-ANFIS based fault location system for underground power cables
(2017)
In the past decade, electricity demand has increased rapidly in metropolitan areas. All over the world, large scale underground power cable installations networks are replacing overhead transmission lines due to environmental ...
Voltage profile improvement using switched capacitors: case of single wire earth return distribution network
(2017)
Most rural areas in Africa are characterized by scattered villages with a very low demand in electricity. Due to improper planning and lack of knowledge on low cost technologies, the cost of extending the grid to supply ...
Novel Modeling of a Fast DC Breaker for a VSC-HVDC Transmission System Protection
(2017-11)
The inability to quickly isolate the faulty sections of the direct current (DC) network damages the converters and the transmission system. Further delay in fault interruption can be escalated to the generation system thus ...
