Mohsen Niasati, Mohammad Pazoki, Mehdi Gholamzadeh . TRV Evaluation in Advanced Series Compensated System. International Journal of Computer Applications. 34, 7 ( November 2011), 1-6. DOI=10.5120/4108-5905
The amplitude and rate of rise of transient recovery voltage (TRV and RRRV) are two parameters which affect the circuit breaker's capability to interrupt a fault current. It is important to evaluate the impact of series compensation on operation of circuit breaker (CB) and TRV when clearing a fault. This paper intends to analyze the TRV and RRRV across a CB of the line in presence of Thyristor-Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC), as one of the series compensation devices. This paper investigates the effect of several factors and different conditions on the TRV. Fault type, fault ignition time, fault location, and fault duration are the most important factors. Moreover, in this study the new aspects of the TRV analysis by considering the impact of various system configurations and the TCSC device are presented.
