Overvoltage 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 کاملThe Dilemma of Surge Protection vs. Overvoltage Scenarios: Implications for Low-Voltage Surge-Protec - 8th International Conference On Harmonics And Quality of Power Proceedings
The application of surge-protective devices in lowvoltage systems faces the dilemma of providing effective limiting against surges while not attempting to limit the temporary overvoltages that do occur in a power system The paper illustrates this dilemma with specific scenarios and presents recommendations for reconciling these two conditions through adequate design and more explicit standards.
