Abstract

A new type of fault current limiter (FCL) utilizing series LC resonance circuit composed of a superconducting coil and a capacitor is proposed. The superconducting coil is wound by Bi-2223/Ag HTS tape conductor. The new FCL can suppress the rapid increase of a fault current by its energy storing capacity. Both theoretical analysis and experiments are carried out. The experimental result shows the current limiting ability of this FCL. The obtained experimental result agrees well with the theoretical one
