Ultra Wide Band Radio (UWB) is also known as the impulse radio (IR). It will become one of the most competitive technologies, especially in the high speed data transmission, high precision positioning, tracking and other fields; it has broad application prospects in the future. The main function of the highvoltage circuit breaker in the power grid is breaking, closing and carrying run normal cu...

Circuit Breaker is one of the most critical elements of power industry. Controlled Switching of grid voltage and grid current is the best solution to prevent the high inrush current and over voltages. This paper describes the Controlled Switching of Circuit Breaker by using multiprocessor based architecture. With this architecture early detection of most of major fault is feasible; it is also p...

-This paper examines the impact of the network modification produced by the replacement of an existing conventional generator with a high voltage directly connected generator on the adequacy of existing circuit breakers distributed throughout a high voltage transmission network. The significance of generator design changes is assessed by comparing the critical fault types producing maximal circ...

This paper is a sequel to a study by the authors of electric power systems comprising the generator circuit-breakers (GCBs) at power plant generator terminals. A sustainable assessment of the current interruption requirements of a GCB addresses the main stresses on the generator circuit breaker, revealing that the GCB current interruption requirements are significantly higher than for the distr...

High-voltage circuit breakers are among the most important equipments for ensuring the efficient and safe operation of an electric power system. On occasion, circuit breaker operators may wish to check whether equipment is performing satisfactorily and whether controlled switching systems are producing reliable and repeatable stress control. Monitoring of voltage and current waveforms during sw...

Redesign of traditional relays with microcontroller-based relays can be used to achieve a higher level of reliability. In this study, the results of redesign and prototyping of a synchrocheck relay using an 8952 microcontroller with improved reliability is discussed. These relays are usually used for paralleling two load-generation islands, or for closing an open loop in an electric power syste...
