Simulation of the Switching Arc for a Motor Protective Circuit Breaker
The electric current is omnipresent and indispensable in our life. But there are always threatening dangers connected with it. One of them is the electric short circuit and we have to protect people and facilities from its effects. This protection is often provided by power circuit breakers or motor protective circuit breakers. These devices are able to detect the short circuit, limit the curre...
متن کاملFlexible Pulsed Dc- Source for Investigations of Hvdc Circuit Breaker Arc Resistance
The paper discusses the design of a flexible pulsed current source needed for experimental research of switching arcs in HVDC circuit breakers with passive resonance circuits. The source drives a current pulse from a pre-charged capacitor and forms it using an IGBT switch operated at 10kHz. The current source will be used to measure stationary and transient UIcharacteristics of switching arcs i...
متن کاملStudy of the Effect of Gassing Material on Arc Behavior in Low Voltage Circuit Breaker
A two-dimensional compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) computational model has been developed to study the effect of gassing material on air arc behavior in low voltage circuit breaker. The properties of arc plasma and the electric, magnetic and radiative phenomena have been taken into account in the model. Based on the model, steady state solutions have been performed to study the effect of ...
متن کاملOvervoltage Transient Analysis of Vacuum Circuit Breaker Switched Arc Furnace Installation
Frequent Switching of arc furnace in steel company causes a great effect on the insulation of arc furnace transformer winding which in turn may causes a shutdown of production for long periods of time. Therefore, it is necessary to study and analyze the causes of these outages and design an adequate protective device. In this paper the transient overvoltage resulted from vacuum circuit breaker ...
متن کاملQuantifying Photovoltaic Fire Danger Reduction with Arc-fault Circuit Interrupters
Unmitigated arc-faults present fire dangers, shock hazards, and cause system downtime in photovoltaic (PV) systems. The 2011 National Electrical Code® added section 690.11 to require a listed arc-fault protection device on new PV systems. Underwriters Laboratories created the outline of investigation for PV DC arc-fault circuit protection, UL 1699B, for certifying arc-fault circuit interrupters...
