The evacuation of bulk electrical power over long distances can be done mainly by high voltage alternating current (HVAC) ...

Abstract: With widespread proliferation of power electronic devices, harmonic pollution has become increasingly severe in power distribution network. Owing to its simple structure and high ...

Protecting an electronic circuit from damage due to excessive current or heat is the primary function of many circuit protection technologies. In the past, this protection took the form of a fuse or ...

Abstract: Traditional instantaneous overcurrent protection schemes encounter significant challenges in power lines, particularly when line impedances are low, resulting in minimal differences in fault ...

Safety and protection in power systems are essential to ensure the protection of both electronic components and users. Safety is extremely important in power electronics. Systems must be designed to ...

In this EC&M Tech Talk Randy Barnett discusses in five different sections the concepts and rules of overcurrent protection. Overcurrent protective devices include the fuses and circuit breakers ...

Inrush current represents one of the most common yet overlooked challenges in power electronics design. These sudden current surges can exceed normal operating levels by 10 to 100 times, lasting only ...
