Improving interruption performance of mechanical circuit breakers by controlling pre-current-zero wave shape

Improving interruption performance of mechanical circuit breakers by controlling pre-current-zero wave shape

Mechanical circuit breakers (MCBs) are the limiting component for current injection HVDC circuit breakers. Improving their interruption performance reduces requirements for capacitance and inductance needed in the injection circuit and thus space use and costs. Higher performance can be achieved by...
