  • Abstract:
  • Over the last 60 years High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) power transmission has gained serious popularity; suggesting a valid alternative to the currently, almost exclusively used, AC power transmission. The technological innovations of the last 20 years on the electrical converters made HVDC an even more promising solution on energy distribution and transmission. A lot of work has been done on the area but only two three terminal systems have been realized. For the acceptance and reliability of these networks, the availability of HVDC circuit breakers (CBs) will be critical, making them one of the key enabling technologies.
