Abstract

This paper analyzed the application of Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) on 22.9 [㎸] bus tie in a power distribution system. Commonly, the parallel operations of power main transformers offer a lot of merits. However, when a fault occurs in the parallel operation of power main transformer, the fault currents might exceed the interruption capacity of existing protective devices. To resolve this problem, thus, the SFCL has been studied as the fascinating device. In case that, Particularly, the SFCL could be installed to parallel operation of various power main transformers in power distribution system of the Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) on 22.9 [㎸] bus tie, the effect of the resistance of SFCL could reduce the increased fault currents and meet the interruption capacity of existing protective devices by them. Therefore, we analyzed the effect of application and proposed the proper impedance of the R-type SFCL on 22.9 [㎸] bus tie in a power distribution system using PSCAD/EMTDC.
