Fault Current and Voltage Estimation for Pole-to-Pole Faults in Modular Multilevel Converter Based DC Grids Considering AC Active Power

DC short-circuit faults are one of the challenges for modular multilevel converter (MMC) based DC grid. It is vital for proper design of protection system to estimate the fault currents and voltages. The existing calculation methods based on RLC equivalent model of MMC have enough accuracy in estima...
