Fault Detection and Location of IGBT Short-Circuit Failure in Modular Multilevel Converters

Fault Detection and Location of IGBT Short-Circuit Failure in Modular Multilevel Converters

A single fault detection and location for Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) is of great significance, as numbers of sub-modules (SMs) in MMC are connected in series. In this paper, a novel fault detection and location method is proposed for MMC in terms of the Insulated Gate Bipolar Translator (IGB...
