Abstract
A superconducting fault current limiter (FCL) is one of the most attractive solutions to an increase of short-circuit current in electric power networks. The authors have studied resistive type FCLs using YBCO thin film superconductor with the patterning of superconducting and metal layers to increase the capacity of their current and voltage. A new design concept of fault current limiting element has been proposed, which has a meander-shaped gold layer on a wide I-shaped YBCO thin film. Experimental study and comparison between experimental and numerical analysis results verify the validity of the new FCL design concept.
