Abstract :
Fault current limiters are an attractive option for high fault current duty shipboard power systems. FCL´s have the potential to improve safety and reliability, and limit the size and rating of protective equipment, and limit the extent of voltage sags and interruptions. This paper explores the system performance of a novel superconducting fault current limiter.
