Abstract :
The management and control of shipboard medium voltage AC (MVAC) and medium voltage DC (MVDC) power system architectures under fault conditions present a number of challenges. The use and resulting interaction of multiple power electronic components in mesh-like power distribution architectures possibly result in the effects of faults being detectable throughout the system, for example, line-to-hull faults on DC systems with high resistive grounding.
