TESTING OF NEW SIMPLE-STRUCTURED AC SOLID-STATE CIRCUIT BREAKER

It is time for us to move past traditional electromechanical circuit breakers. Traditional EM models have been a part of our routine since they were first invented and provide invaluable service as a back up measure for an ever changing world, but there is simply no replacement for newer high tech options available today. From new ways of electricity transmission and distribution, such as DC microgrids, to advances in electronics materials such as semi-conductors, today’s advancements in the world of electrical engineering demand that we reexamine how we handle power use – especially when it comes to its most basic element: interruptions. Currently, this process involves using some kind of auxiliary mechanical device while waiting for the breaker to close; however, with newer proposed AC SSCB you will be able to perform quick operations without any need whatsoever for additional machinery. In this paper, the performance features of the proposed ac SSCB are first demonstrated by design and simulated results of Single-Phase SSCB then Three-Phase model and outcomes are carried out. To make things easier, a flowchart for the design of the circuitry is also provided.
