For systems with relatively low voltage and special application occasions, such as all-electric aircraft, circuit breakers need to have higher reliability and smaller volume, which can be used to study the material problems of circuit breakers in-depth, such as the development of silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductor materials in recent years.
Compared with the traditional circuit breaker, ABB's solid-state circuit breaker replaces the traditional moving parts of the electronic mechanical circuit breaker with power electronic equipment and advanced software algorithms, which can control the power and break the current at a faster speed.
The ABB circuit breaker scheme is developed by ABB's R & D center in Bergamo, Italy. The circuit breaker adopts the patented IGCT semiconductor technology scheme, combining the new embedded predictive power management software, protection algorithm, and higher-level connection. 4.3. Research status of hybrid circuit breakers
In order to promote the mechanical circuit breaker for commercial use, the Toshiba Company of Japan has developed a 250kV/1.2kA mechanical circuit breaker, which has relatively good breaking capacity and reliability .
When designing a distribution network circuit breaker, the coordination, topology, and stability of the circuit breaker should be considered comprehensively. In the design and selection of the solid-state circuit breaker, it can be analyzed and designed in combination with the main on-off branch or breaking branch.
The development of flexible AC transmission and multi-terminal DC grid is in an urgent demand for DC circuit breaker (DCCB) technology with faster switching speed, strong breaking capacity, higher reliability, and a better economy. In this paper, mechanical DCCBs, solid-state DCCBs, and hybrid DCCBs are discussed and summarized.
