Fault Analysis of Circuit Breaker in a Converter Station Based on Switching Coil Currents
Switching coil is the key component of operating mechanism of a high voltage circuit breaker
and its coil current reflects the motion characteristic of the circuit breaker. In this paper
the structure of the switching coil is introduced
and a method for judging circuit breaker fault is proposed by detecting coil current. A mechanical fault of a 550 kV circuit breaker in a converter station is analyzed with the method
and the cause of the fault is determined accurately. The result shows that the switching coil current can be used to find some hidden mechanical troubles in high voltage circuit breakers
so as to heighten state detection level of high voltage circuit breakers and enhance the security and stability of power system.
