Definitions

  • a current warhead arises in the thyristor 17-capacitor 21-self 23 circuit and divides in the diode 13 (HC circuit) and in the HD-3-8 circuit where it will be removed from the main current to quickly bring it- this to zero. It is quite obvious that the increase in the current warhead is of an order of magnitude at least greater than that of the maximum fault current in order to rapidly effect the cancellation of the current in the main contact 8.
