Energetics recently coauthored and published this leading report to outline the testing needs for fault current limiters (FCL), devices that act as a surge protector for the electric grid.
The Oak Ridge National Laboratory required assistance in conducting research and development of next-generation electricity delivery equipment including fault current limiters.
The report identified the specific testing requirements for various FCL designs, assessed the capabilities of domestic and international electric testing facilities, and performed an analysis to determine where existing testing capabilities and facilities fall short of meeting the testing requirements.
This report has made significant contributions to the energy field by serving as the first report to analyze the testing requirements of fault current limiters versus the testing facility capabilities.
