Abstract
Abstract The rapid suppression of fault current flowing through overhead transmission lines and safe restart of the system are critical problems to be solved urgently to improve the stability of the DC grid. A novel adaptive restart strategy combined with fault current suppression is proposed, which suitable for full-bridge modular multilevel converter high voltage direct current system. The resistance-capacitance energy transfer branch is used to achieve a large reduction and rapid attenuation of the fault current amplitude at restart time. The transient fault and permanent fault can be discriminated in a short interval after restarting based on the frequency domain amplitude characteristics. The proposed scheme has both restart-current protection and fault property identification functions, overcoming the high cost and low component reusability of traditional single-function fault current limiting schemes. The simulation results show that the scheme has a significant fault current suppression effect and accurately discriminates the fault property to realize rapid recovery.
