Abstract

Resistive type superconducting fault current limiter (R-SFCL) is one of the most promising candidates to suppress fault currents in power grids. However, the violently boiled cryogen liquids, commonly liquid nitrogen, occurred due to fault currents, poses a crucial cryogenic insulation challenge for R-SFCL. Here we report the design and development of a Cryogenic Insulation Supporter Module (CISM) for a 220 kV R-SFCL. First, we present the design and test of the prototype Cryogenic Insulations Supporter (CIS). The developed CIS passed the high voltage tests under operating conditions. Following on this, we then present the design of CISM, which consists of 14 CISs, with the length and outer diameter of 12 m and 2.5 m, respectively.
