Non-superconducting fault current limiter

Many types of superconducting fault current limiters (FCLs) are proposed but considering their high technology and considerable cost it is not possible using these devices commercially, yet. This paper deals with presentation the designing formulas and characteristics for near zero resistance copper DC reactor type FCL. The device is series with distribution line and it uses a single copper coil with a diode bridge without any other control circuits. The simplicity to be built and its low cost are the main advantageous of analyzed system. The results show that the power loss is a very small percentage of protected load power. The analytical and simulation results are presented and the overall operation is compared with superconductor FCLs.
