    摘要: A wind turbine is disclosed having a generator and rectifier and structured to provide direct current power that in one form is medium voltage direct current (MVDC). The wind turbine includes a crowbar circuit arranged to protect from a condition such as an overvoltage. The crowbar can be activated based on a voltage measurement or rate of change of voltage. A resistor can be coupled to the crowbar to absorb excess power provided by the generator during the overvoltage condition. Individual wind turbines in a wind farm can each have individual crow bars that can be activated based on local measurement of a voltage condition. In some forms the crowbar can be coupled with a transformer, for example coupled with a tertiary winding of a three winding transformer.

    摘要: Technologies for detecting a fault location in a DC electrical distribution system include a bus protection unit that monitors a DC electrical bus. The bus protection unit includes at least one sensor to produce sensor data indicative of one or more characteristics of the DC electrical bus monitored by the bus protection unit. The bus protection unit monitors the sensor data, determines whether a fault has occurred based on the sensor data, and determines whether the fault occurred within a bus zone defined by the DC electrical bus in response to determining that the fault has occurred. Further, the bus detection unit trips isolation devices within the bus zone in response to a determination that the fault occurred within the bus zone or a communication from another bus protection unit indicating the fault has occurred within the bus zone. The bus protection unit transmits a bus fault indication signal to another bus protection unit in response to a determination that the fault has occurred.

    摘要: A power distribution system for off-shore natural resource platforms includes an off-shore medium voltage direct current (MVDC) power bus. The MVDC power bus includes multiple power bus segments, each of which may be connected to one or more other power bus segments via a corresponding circuit breaker. Each power bus segment may also be electrically coupled to an off-shore renewable energy source, such as a wind farm, and/or an off-shore drilling platform. The off-shore drilling platforms may include local power distribution systems electrically connected to a corresponding power bus segment via a circuit breaker to receive power from the MVDC power bus and supply power to local equipment of the off-shore drilling platform.
