Abstract
With the increase of direct current (dc) based power generating stations and loads, multi-terminal medium voltage dc (MT-MVdc) systems are gaining popularity. The dc sources and loads are interfaced with the MT-MVdc systems using series and parallel connected dual-active-bridge (SP-DAB). In this paper, the dc fault ride through procedure of SP-DAB meant for MT-MVdc application is analyzed. The need for dc breaker (DCB) under the requirements of MT-MVdc is established through EMT simulation studies. It is shown that an additional dc filter capacitor is essential at the output terminals of the SP-DAB to ride through the dc faults.
