Abstract

Fault current limiters for electric power systems have been researched. We have studied a inductive type superconducting fault current limiter. The limiter has superconducting cylinder as active element. We developed a high Jc Bi-2223 thick film on a MgO cylinder. Jc was over 5800 A/cm² at 77 K. We made a inductive type superconducting fault current limiter with the Bi-2223 thick film cylinder and investigated limiting performances.
