With the development of a distributed generation, direct current (DC) load and energy-storage equipment, voltage-source-converter-based medium-voltage DC systems (VSC-MVDC) have attracted more attention due to its low power consumption, high reliability, independent control so on. However, VSC-MVDC has problem fault isolation, which requires fast-acting circuit-breakers isolate faulty lines ens...

A new method that researching fault diagnosis of high-voltage (HV) circuit breaker (CB) is proposed. The method combines Wavelet Packet (WP) with Radical Basis Function (RBF) Neural Network (NN). Firstly, by applying the theory of WP decomposition and reconstruction, the mechanical vibration signal of CB was decomposed into different frequency bands, and the coefficients are reconstructed in th...

A breaker restrike is an abnormal arcing phenomenon, leading to a possible breaker failure. Eventually, this failure leads to interruption of the transmission and distribution of the electricity supply system until the breaker is replaced. Before 2008, there was little evidence in the literature of monitoring techniques based on restrike measurement and interpretation produced during switching ...

The purpose of this paper is to acquire the remote electrical parameters like Voltage, Current, and Frequency from Smart grid and send these real time values over GSM network using GSM Modem/phone along with temperature at power station. This project is also designed to protect the electrical circuitry by operating an Electromagnetic Relay. The Relay can be used to operate a Circuit Breaker to ...

SF6, which is currently widely used in gas-insulated power transmission equipment, a greenhouse gas with very strong effect. Therefore, developing environmentally friendly insulation equipment to gradually reduce the use of SF6 has become hot research topic. As most potential alternative gas, C4F7N great significance study electrical characteristics medium-voltage switching field promote green ...

a new output structure for class e power amplifier (pa) is proposed in this paper. a series lc resonator circuit, tuned near the second harmonic of the operating frequency is added to the output circuit. this resonator causes low impedance at the second harmonic. the output circuit is designed to shape the switch voltage of the class e amplifier and lower the voltage stress of the transistor. t...

This paper presents the flow field analysis in the Puffer-tyep (P-T) circuit breakers. There are many problems in analyzing the flow field in circuit breakers such as shock wave, complex geometry, moving boundary and so on. For the cold gas analysis, the flow field computation for the high voltage gas blast circuit breaker with the moving boundary by meshfree (FGCBM) method[1,2] is employed to ...

Abstract The circuit breaker is a device that cuts off and connects the load in power system, fault circuit, prevents accident from expanding, ensures safe operation. Detecting failures necessary to ensure systems’ safety. Before identification, must be identified positioned first. In this paper, identification technology based on SSD adopted, used identify mark voltage name quickly.

The automated circuit breaker diagnostic system described in this paper is an extension of the widely used portable circuit breaker testing device concept. These traditional testing devices can be connected to the circuit breaker’s control circuit to record analog and digital signals. The operator opens and closes the circuit breaker each time the test is performed and makes the recordings. The...
