It is great significance for development of MTDC (Multi-terminal HVDC) to build DC transmission and distribution grids. However, the relatively low impedance in DC grids makes the fault penetration much faster and deeper .Consequently, fast and reliable DC circuit breaker is needed to isolate faults. Breaking time and other parameters are important for a breaker to achieve its goals. This paper presents a DC circuit breaker with a current-limiting inductance and gets the rising and falling characteristics of fault current. Based on the characteristics, a design method of breaking time sequence will be given, as well as the calculation of current-limiting inductance and the selection principles of arresters. A 10kV DC distribution grid is modeled and simulated by PSCAD/EMTDC to verify that the method can meet the requirements of breaking fault current quickly and reliably.

In this paper, direct current (DC) fault current limiting and interrupting operation of hybrid DC circuit breaker (DCCB) using double quench, which consists of DCCB, a series resonance circuit, power electronic switch, surge arrestor, two separated current limiting reactor/resistor, and two superconducting elements, were suggested. The suggested hybrid DCCB can perform the interrupting operation after twice or once DC fault current limiting operation according to DC fault current amplitude. To verify the effective operation of the suggested hybrid DCCB, the modeling for the components of DCCB, the surge arrestor, and the SCE was carried out and its DC operational characteristics were analyzed. Through the analysis of the modeling results for the suggested hybrid DCCB, the advantages of hybrid DCCB were discussed.
