Abstract
Today, there is a significant increase in electricity consumption with population growth, expansion of residential areas and industrial areas, and the development of technology. Parallel to this, with the increase in production capacity, high current levels caused by faults in the system for various reasons create dangerous situations for the system and the elements in the system. Limitation of fault currents provides protection of the system and system elements from the compelling thermal, dynamic and electromagnetic effects of these currents. In this study, the structure and working principle of Resistive Superconducting Fault Current Limiters (R-SFCL), which is one of the modern fault current limiting methods, are investigated. In addition, the real data obtained by performing the R-SFCL design in the laboratory environment and performing the faults in the created experimental system, and the simulation results performed with MATLAB/Simulink are compared.
