Abstract

Abstract Two electric power systems are interconnected through primary windings of series transformers connected in parallel with each other. A shunt transformer is across the connecting series transformers and includes three windings of which two are connected across the secondary winding of each of the series transformers with a capacitor disposed between the secondary windings of both transformers. A thyristor is connected across the tertiary winding of the shunt transformer. The thyristor is in a closed condition to perform the normal interconnected system operation and assumes an opened condition upon the occurrence of a short circuit on either power system.
