Success Factors for DC-Line Fault Recovery with VSC – Lessons learned from HVDC “Classic”

Conclusions for a fast and safe Fault Recovery Solution:1. Transient DC Voltage Polarity Reversal for fast DC Current Reduction, safe

Extinction and safe De-Ionization of the Arc2. Ramped Recovery with fully controllable DC Voltage allows up to 3 Restart

Attempts and it enables variable Timing & Restart at reduced DC Line Voltage

3. Power Transfer can already begin during Restart Ramping

4. DC Restart is faster than AC Auto-Reclosure *
