Review of different fault detection methods and their impact on pre-emptive VSC-HVDC dc protection performance

Multi-terminal voltage-sourced converters (VSC) high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission system is expected to play a vital role in future power systems. Compared with ac power transmission, dc transmission is more vulnerable to faults due to low dc-side impedances and sensitive power electronics in the converters. Dc protection issues must be tackled before any multi-terminal VSC-HVDC grid...
