Study on Application Method of Superconducting Fault Current Limiter for Protection Coordination of Protective Devices in a Power Distribution System.

In this paper, the application method of superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) for the protection coordination of the protective devices in a power distribution system was analyzed. The SFCL has been announced as better solution among many methods to limit a fault current effectively, which has continuously increased due to more complex network of a power system. However, the application of the SFCL in a power system affects the operation of the protection devices and the protection coordination, which requires the study on the protection coordination of the protective devices considering the application of the SFCL in a power distribution system.
