Circuit Breaker Modeling
• Mechanical delay time (from command to contact separation): min 10...20 ms “opening time” = contact separation
current interruption: default at zero crossing
• Arcing time: 1...5 cycles depending on CB type and current wave form
include arcing time in “opening time”
• Arc modeling Arc voltage – current relationship highly complex
(parameters: CB design, thermodynamics) generic models mostly insufficient – special modeling necessary
zero arcing voltage for high voltage systems
constant value (10...100 V) for low voltage systems

Overvoltage Protection
• Spark Gaps
Metallic electrodes providing a gas insulated gap to flash
over
Very robust, but large variance in protection level
• Magnetically blown Surge Arresters
Same basic principle as spark gaps, adopt SiC varistors
but can handle much higher energy dissipation
• Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV)
Ceramic composites based on zinc, bismuth, and cobalt
Highly non-linear current-voltage characteristic
Very precise and stable protection level
Limited overload capability

Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC)
• A capacitive reactance compensator which consists of a
series capacitor bank shunted by a thyristor-controlled
reactor in order to provide a smoothly variable series
capacitive reactance.
• Can be one large unit or several small ones. Limits fault
current when reactor is fully on.

STATCOM and SSSC
• A static synchronous generator
operated without an external
electric energy source
• Can be shunt or series connected
• As a shunt compensator, can inject
reactive power
• As a series compensator , its
voltage is in quadrature with, and
controllable independently of, the
line current for the purpose of
increasing or decreasing the overall
reactive voltage drop across the
line and thereby controlling the
transmitted electric power.

Unified Power Flow Controller
• The UPFC, by means of angularly unconstrained series
voltage injection, is able to control, concurrently or
selectively, the transmission line voltage, impedance,
and angle or, alternatively, the real and reactive power
flow in the line.
• The UPFC may also provide independently controllable
shunt reactive compensation.

Fault Current Limiting Circuit Breaker
rectifier DC CB
inductor
Fast acting circuit breaker can function as a fault current limiter
During normal operation, the circuit breaker shorts the high-
impedance inductor, exhibits low impedance. During fault
condition, the circuit breaker is open, the fault current flow
through the high impedance inductor, thus limit the fault current to

Without FCL, the prospective fault current could reach 10x rated
current (red dash line).
Traditional FCL acts at current zero-crossing point, it can’t suppress
the first peak (blue dot line).
Fast acting FCL limits the fault current in all range (pink solid).

Summary of Actuation Technologies
• Traditional non power electronics based actuators
have limited actuation capability. The system is
generally not very flexible
• PE based actuators (FACTS, HVDC) can be very
effective for
Power flow control
Voltage and var control
System stability
Protection
Interface of source and load
• Issues: cost, reliability
• Solutions: new PE technology, modular approach,
hybrid approach, different architecture

Actuation Thrust Objectives and Challenges
• Objectives
Develop actuation methodology and system architecture that will
enable wide-area control in a transmission grid with high
penetration of renewable energy sources
• Challenges
1) Lack of cost effective wide-area system-level actuators
2) Lack of global actuation functions for the existing actuators or
lack of knowledge how to use these actuators for global
functions
3) System architecture not best suited for wide-area coordinated
actuation and control for network with high penetration of
renewable energy sources
4) Lack of design and control methodologies for systems with
power electronics converters interfacing a high percentage of
sources and loads

Conclusions
• Actuation thrust provides essential technology
for wide-area coordinated control, and directly
supports the CURENT systems.
• Thrust research plan has been established with
focus on multifunctional actuators and flexible
architecture.
