Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to medium voltage alternating current (MV AC) distribution networks. Isolating a fault in a feeder line of an MV AC distribution network may cause a healthy portion of a feeder line to be disconnected from all power sources. Network control systems may be able to reconnect the healthy portion to another feeder line using controllable switches such as tie switching devices coupled to the end of each feeder line. Existing MV AC distribution networks suffer from a number of shortcomings and disadvantages. There remain unmet needs including increasing reconfigurability following feeder line fault response, preventing subsequent overloads after network reconfigurations, and reducing network downtime for healthy feeder line portions. For instance, conventional distribution networks do not receive power from multiple connected feeder lines after a fault response, risking an overload in a single newly connected feeder line and reducing power transfer ability. In view of these and other shortcomings in the art, there is a significant need for the unique apparatuses, methods, systems and techniques disclosed herein.

Abstract: A method for restoration of a fault isolation in a medium voltage, MV, network having a plurality of feeders and a plurality of normally open, NO, switches (NO1, NO2, NO3, NO4)possibly in parallel with MV direct current, DC, links (MVDC1, MVDC2, MVDC3, MVDC4)is presented. The method is performed in a control device (1) of the MV network. The method comprises closing (S120) at least two NO switches in parallel with MVDC links of the plurality of NO switches, being connected to a fault isolated feeder of the plurality of feeders of the MV network, and opening (S150) the closed at least two NO switches in parallel with MVDC links except one.A control device, a computer program and a computer program product for restoration of a fault isolation in a MV network are also presented.

Abstract: A short-circuiting device (14) comprises a triggering circuit (16), an actuating element (30), a stationary electrode (20) and a moveable electrode (22), where the actuating element (30) is moveable between a first retracted position and a first extended position and joined to the moveable electrode (22) for being moved between a corresponding second retracted position, where there is gap of a first distance between the moveable and stationary electrodes (22, 20), and a second extended position, where the gap has a second lower distance, the triggering circuit (16) being configured to trigger a current to start to flow between the electrodes (20, 22) after the actuating element (30) has been actuated to move from the first retracted position and before reaching the first extended position and the current continues to flow in the gap after a first zero crossing and at least until a second zero-crossing.
