Simulation of Fault Current Restraining Effect when Line to Line Short Circuit in Distribution Systems[J]. High voltageapparatus, 2000, (2): 7-11. DOI: 10.13296/j.1001-1609.hva.2000.02.002.
the effect of introduction of fault current limiter (FCL) is investigated when it is used in a distribution systems. A line-to-line short circuit fault is assumed to happen at the source side terminal or load side of one of the feeder lines. For three locations of FCL
the current limiting performance and the instantaneous voltage drop at a load bus are calculated by electric magnetic transients program (EMTP). The results show that FCL which is located at exit of bus can get a great effect on both the limitation of fault current and suppression of bus voltage drops.
