Abstract (EN): Emerging new voltage source converter based HVDC applications demand fast short-circuit fault current interruption. Fast dc circuit breakers are identified as the feasible solution to handle the dc fault current. Switching overvoltage across the dc circuit breakers is destructive for the interrupter device and also for the other components of the system. A new topology of fast solid-state circuit breaker for HVDC applications is proposed in this paper. Instead of conventional approaches, a pre-charged capacitor is used for soft switching. Different modes of operation of proposed circuit breaker are analysed and also design process of circuit parameters are described. Finally, simulation results are presented.
