A New Method of Detecting and Interrupting High Impedance Faults by Specifying the Z-Source Breaker in DC Power Networks

High impedance faults (HIFs) that cause a relatively smaller current magnitude compared to the traditional low impedance faults are not easily detectable but can cause an extreme threat to electric apparatus and system operation. This paper introduces a new method of detecting and interrupting HIFs...
