Abstract:
There are complex physical phenomena for the interpretation of a molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) in a distribution system. Most of the studies of MCCB interruption phenomena were conducted with numerical analysis and experiments. This traditional approach may help improve the performance of the MCCB itself, but it is difficult to find connectivity with other systems. In this paper, the circuit model is proposed and the interruption phenomenon of MCCB is analyzed. The interruption of the MCCB is divided into three sections to deal with physical phenomena occurring in each area. A simplified model is proposed considering the characteristics of each section. Based on this model, the circuit model is proposed. To implement the features of each section, the calculation of physical phenomena is carried out, and this is expressed in the circuit model with resistance and zener diode. Comparing the results of the simulation with the experimental results is as follows. For 7-plates (basic state), the error rate is −5.6% in section II and 16.8% in section III. For 1-plate, the error rate is 36.5% in section II and −17.0% in section III. This case shows much difference from the simplified model in this paper, resulting in the largest error rate. The 7-plates and 5-plates cases, which are available in the general MCCB owing to the shortest distance from the arc, represent a relatively small error rate. Using the proposed circuit model, it is expected that the entire system, including the interruption phenomenon, can be interpreted as a single circuit model.

Abstract:
Simulation methods are routinely applied in the design and development process of power distribution devices. Arcing phenomena that occur during switching operations or fault events are modeled to optimize device performance and gain deeper insights into the behavior that testing cannot easily provide. In this contribution, some applications are presented in detail. The first example describes the distribution of debris that is generated inside a molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) during short-circuit interruption. A model is used to analyze the debris transport and to derive a solution to address issues caused by the debris. Second application example is a cooling device for hot plasma gases vented by circuit breakers. A model driven design process helps to define the device dimensions to achieve a safe temperature level of the exhaust gases. The third example deals with short-circuit behavior of a hollow core high voltage surge arrester, comparing model and experimental results.

Abstract:
In this research we present multi-body dynamics analysis can be applied in product development using a case study of a Molded Case Circuit Breaker (MCCB) with a spring-actuated linkage, which can save time and cost considerably. In particular, we demonstrate how to evaluate and improve durability of the MCCB based on multi-body dynamics and finite element simulation given SM45C steel used for the MCCB links. Toward this goal, a 3D MCCB dynamic model is first developed and dynamic forces are analyzed by using the multi-body dynamics software, ADAMS. Finite element simulation is then performed to examine maximum principal stresses considering deflections and dynamic loads. Further, mechanical properties of SM45C steel are measured experimentally from tensile and fatigue tests. As a result, we verify that stress loads acting on the latch pin of the spring-actuated linkage are critically higher, which ultimately leads to a low-cycle fatigue fracture of the pin. Based on our analytically estimated maximum principal stresses in the MCCB and experimentally measured mechanical properties of SM45C steel, we evaluate design durability and improve our design. As a result, using a 4 mm diameter pin and modifying SM45C with heat treating that includes quenching and tempering, we successfully achieve a MCCB product development, which provides sufficient strengths to prevent yielding and fatigue failures from repeated dynamic loads.

Abstract:
This study is conducted to determine the critical temperature under normal current flow by estimating normal heat generation; the saturation temperature of the connecting part of a circuit breaker is simultaneously measured by sub-dividing the rated current of molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) into 10 steps. Further, a risk analysis was conducted via an investigation of thermal characteristics. To this end, five types of MCCBs were selected while building a temperature test box; further, the heat generation temperature of the three phases on the line and load sides was measured using the sub-divided load current to represent the electrical heat variation and a high-current-generating tester real-time. The results the test, demonstrate that the temperature of the connecting part of the MCCB stably increased; in addition, the standard of the heat generation could be established and the load amount could be predicted by measuring the temperature variation. Meanwhile, the heat generation temperature was different for different types of wirings such as power lines and Busbar. Further among the R, S, and T phases of the MCCB, S phase temperature was slightly higher than those of the others. This study can serve as a theoretical reference for future applied research on the dangers of fire due to the heat generation of the connecting part of the MCCB, wherein the risks of abnormal heat generation need to be analyzed. The results obtained can be applied not only to prevent the carbonization accidents of MCCBs installed inside distribution panels being used at industrial sites, but also to manage the risks of the distribution circuit breaker and prevent the electrical fire.

Abstract:
In this study, we developed a wireless heat variation detection system that can measure the temperature difference between the molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) and magnetic contactor (MC) of the motor control center (MCC), collect data, and monitor the heat variation of the MCC connection. Thus far, we have developed a temperature controller and applied a multi-communication technique based on Bluetooth Low Energy between the repeater and temperature controller between the MCCB and MC. Furthermore, we designed the measured temperature data to be transmitted to the cloud server via a gateway. To verify the functionality and performance of the developed wireless heat variation detection system, we initially installed 1 gateway for communication with the MCC server, 4 sets of 4 types of temperature controllers in Repeater 1, 12 sets of 4 types of temperature controllers in Repeater 2, and 6 sets of 4 types of temperature controllers in Repeater 3. Then, we conducted an experiment to periodically monitor the temperature at 12 locations of the MCCB and MC terminal connections in real-time. This developed device can be applied not only to the MCC but also to the power distribution system using the MCCB and MC. This will contribute to the prevention and management of electrical fire accidents caused by heat variation that can occur because of poor contact, overcurrent, and abnormal current.

Abstract:
HVDC grids demand the fast and reliable operation of the protection system. The failure of any protection element should initialize a backup protection almost immediately in order to assure the system’s stability. This paper proposes a novel backup strategy that covers the failure of the primary protection including the malfunctioning of the HVDC circuit breaker. Only local voltage measurements are employed in the proposed backup protection and the voltage derivative is calculated at both sides of the limiting inductor. Consequently, the speed and reliability of the protection system are enhanced, since no communication channel is needed. This paper contains a thorough specification of the proposed protection strategy. This strategy is validated in a four-terminal HVDC grid with various fault case scenarios, including high-resistance fault cases. The operation of the backup protection is reliable and remarkably fast.

DC faults cause severe disruption in not only the DC system but also the AC system because the fault current is very large and rapidly increases. The DC circuit breaker used to separate the DC faults from the power system is still being researched, but it is very expensive due to the use of multiple power semiconductors to interrupt a large fault current in a short time. However, if the quench characteristic of a superconductor is used, the amplitude of fault current can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to effectively interrupt a large fault current even if a relatively cheap mechanically passive DC circuit breaker is used. In the current study, a superconducting hybrid DC circuit breaker is proposed, and the limiting characteristics of each element are analyzed. By using two superconducting elements, the quench occurs sequentially twice according to the magnitude of the fault current, and the current-limiting reactor and resistance are used. If a current-limiting reactor is used in the DC system, the fault current rises slowly at the beginning of the fault, and the use of resistance can reduce the magnitude of the fault current. The inductance of the current-limiting reactor and resistance parameter settings of the hybrid DC circuit breaker was analyzed by the step-changing case method, and the interrupting characteristic of the DC circuit breaker was improved.

Abstract:
This paper describes and demonstrates the principle and efficacy of a novel direct current fault interruption scheme using a reactor in series with a controlled rectifier and a conventional AC circuit breaker. The presence of the series reactor limits the capacitive discharge current from the DC filter capacitor at the output terminals of the phase-controlled rectifier. In addition, the series reactor along with the filter capacitor forms an underdamped series RLC circuit which forces the fault current to oscillate about zero. This synthetic alternating current can then be interrupted using a conventional AC circuit breaker. The selection criteria for the series reactor and overcurrent protection are presented as well. Using the proposed scheme for an example case, a DC fault current magnitude is reduced from 56 kA to 14 kA, while the interruption time is reduced from 44 ms to 25 ms.
