Abstract
The resistive-type superconducting fault current limiter (R-SFCL) is simple in configuration, near zero impedance at normal state, and can be quickly triggered by the fault current. So, it is a possible solution to suppress the fault current in the power grid. In this paper, the design and development of a 220-kV R-SFCL were reported. The core component of it is a module constructed by 128 bifilar coils. The bifilar coils are connected in series and parallel to form the module according to the application requirements. The bifilar coils are made of 12-mm-wide steel-stabilized 2G tapes, while 16 bifilar coils are connected in parallel to form a sub-module and 8 sub-modules are connected in series to form the module. For this fault current limiter, 10.75-km 2G tapes are used in total, and the resistance of the R-SFCL module is 4.5 Ω at 300 K. Besides, the half-size sub-module and the cryogenic insulation support (CIS) are developed and tested.
