Abstract:

High voltage direct current (HVDC) systems are efcient solutions for the integration of large-scale renewable energy sources with the main power grids. The rapid development of the HVDC grid has resulted in a growing interest in DC circuit breakers (DCCBs). A fast and reliable circuit breaker is a necessary requirement in the development of large scale HVDC grids. This paper provides a comprehensive review and survey of the HVDC CBs and discusses potential research directions. Operational principles and the main features of various DCCBs are described and their merits and shortcomings are also highlighted.

Key words: DC circuit breakers (DCCBs), High voltage direct current (HVDC) system, Multi-terminal HVDC (MT-HVDC), Fault current isolation, Renewable energies, Voltage clamping
