This paper presents a novel solution using the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) to protect a power electronic device and extend the usage to a micro grid. This SFCL is actually a self-triggering, recoverable, and passive current limiter, which does not involve any additional circuit hardware and software.
To further speed up the actual current-limiting operation, more superconducting materials should be used for winding the actual SFCL prototype. This is because the current-limiting resistance is linearly related to the total superconducting tape usage.
One important thing should be noted that the SFCL can quickly recover to superconducting state when the transport current is below the critical current, but should also be on the premise that the SFCL's temperature is also below the critical temperature.
In theory, the ideal superconductor exhibits zero resistance below a certain operating temperature, called the critical temperature Tc. Although a superconductor can transport current without resistance, its current-carrying ability is limited, .
