| Abstract |
This paper proposes a coordinative protection study results of 22.9kV HTS(High-Temperature Superconducting) cable implemented distribution system. HTS cable can provide about 5 times larger transfer capacability compare to conventional XLPE cable, however, it has different heat characteristic so called quench. This paper presents the simulation results on Ichun substation HTS cable which connects main transformer and 22.9kV bus. Various expected fault cases are considered and discussed to examine whether conventional protection scheme is effective to protect both of existing facilities and HTS cable. With the results of simulation, conventional protection scheme can be used if instantaneous element and time inverse elements could be adjusted with proper time coordination. Internal temperatures of HTS cable conductor in safe region with proper protection without quench. This results are to be demonstrated by the field test and will be implemented in Ichon substation HTS cable protection and control system. |
