In this paper, transient stability improvement using bridge type fault current limiter (FCL) is presented in single machine infinite bus (SMIB) system with a double circuit transmission line. Three single-phase sets of the proposed FCL are installed at the beginning of feeder. The proposed FCL inserts an inductance and a resistance in the fault current pass. The insertion inductance and resista...

Superconductor fault current limiter (SFCL) is an effective device to suppress high fault currents. This paper presents a comparative study of resistive and inductive fault current limiters from transient stability point of view.  Appropriate location and type of the limiters in a HV substation is selected by a qualitative approach based on the equal area criterion. Study system is simulated by...
