DC faults are critical events in a flexible high-voltage dc (HVDC) grid. Thus, ensuring that the power system returns to normal operation rapidly and reliably after fault isolation is very important. This requires a HVDC breaker. In overhead line systems under temporary faults, reclosing is often required. However, once the dc circuit breaker (DCCB) is reclosed directly, the large second overcurrent may occur which could damage the power electronic devices. To avoid this problem, a current-commutation DC circuit breaker with adaptive reclosing capability is proposed. Compared with the traditional auto-reclosing strategy, the second damage under permanent fault condition can be avoided by the proposed DCCB, which can identify the fault property. Compared with the hybrid DCCB, the power electronic breaking branch composed of lots of IGBTs is replaced by the current-commutation branch, which is employed to interrupt bi-directional dc fault current. Moreover, bypassing branch is configured to reduce the energy dissipation of arrester and shorten the fault isolation time effectively. Finally, simulation cases in PSCAD /EMTDC verify the effectiveness and superiorities of the proposed DCCB.
