摘要： A semiconductor switching string includes a plurality of series-connected semiconductor switching assemblies, each having a main semiconductor switching element that includes first and second connection terminals. The main semiconductor switching element also has an auxiliary semiconductor switching element electrically connected between the first and second connection terminals. Each semiconductor switching assembly also includes a control unit configured to switch on a respective auxiliary semiconductor switching element to selectively create an alternative current path between the first and second connection terminals whereby current is diverted to flow through the alternative current path to reduce the voltage across the corresponding main semiconductor switching element. The or each control unit is further configured to switch on the auxiliary semiconductor switching element when the voltage across the corresponding main semiconductor switching element differs from a voltage reference derived from the voltage across all of the main semiconductor switching elements.

摘要： In the field of voltage source converters for high voltage direct current (HVDC) power transmission there is provided a protection arrangement for a switching device. The protection arrangement comprises a thyristor that has main current-carrying terminals which in use are connected in reverse parallel with a switching device to be protected, whereby during normal operation of the switching device a reverse voltage is applied to the thyristor. The protection arrangement also includes a trigger circuit that is operatively connected with a gate control terminal of the thyristor. The trigger circuit is configured to apply a voltage to the gate control terminal of the thyristor when the reverse voltage applied to the thyristor reaches a safety threshold voltage whereby the thyristor fails and presents an irreversible short-circuit across the main current-carrying terminals of the switching device.

摘要： A semiconductor switching string including a series-connected switching assemblies. Each assembly has a main switching element including first and second connection terminals which current flows between when the main switching element is on. The main element has an auxiliary element between the connection terminals. The string includes a local control unit connected with each auxiliary element which are programmed to switch an auxiliary element to create an alternative current path between the connection terminals that diverts current through to reduce the voltage across the corresponding main switching element. The local unit is programmed to control switching an auxiliary element to a fully-on mode in which the auxiliary element is at maximum rated base current, a pulsed mode which turns the auxiliary element on and off and/or an active mode operating the auxiliary element with a continuously variable base current. The string includes a higher level control unit programmed to implement the modes.
