  • Abstract
    GE Global Research center has developed a system topology that has been validated experimentally by constructing hardware prototypes, to combine the HVDC breaker and transformer functions in a single system. This is implemented with a resonant converter at high frequency to minimize physical footprint, and to maximize efficiency.
