Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of primary technology for electrical switchgear, in particular the limitation of fault currents in high, medium or low voltage switchgear. It is based on a method and a device for current limiting and of a switchgear with such a device according to the preamble of the independent claims.
  • DE 40 12 385 A1 discloses a current-controlled shutdown device whose operating principle is based on the pinch effect with liquid metal. Between two solid metal electrodes, a single, narrow, filled with liquid metal channel is arranged. In the event of overcurrent, the liquid conductor is contracted due to the electromagnetic force due to the pinch effect, so that the current itself strangulates and separates the liquid conductor. The displaced liquid metal is collected in a reservoir and flows back after the overcurrent event. The contact separation takes place without an arc.
  • the device is only suitable for relatively small currents, low voltages and slow turn-off times and does not provide a permanent turn-off state.
  • a high current electrical switch with liquid metal discloses a high current electrical switch with liquid metal.
  • a liquid metal mixture is used for wetting solid metal electrodes and for reducing the contact resistance.
  • the liquid metal by mechanical displacement, z. B. by moving contacts or pneumatically driven plunger, driven against gravity in the contact gap.
  • the liquid metal can be additionally stabilized in the contact gap and held.
  • External magnetic fields and magnetic leakage fluxes, eg. B. by the power supplies can cause flow instabilities in the liquid metal and are shielded and optionally approved when switching off to assist in extinguishing the arc in the liquid metal.
  • the disadvantage is that a gradual current limitation is not possible and cause arcs between the solid electrodes oxidation in the liquid metal.
  • the design of the high-current switch includes seals for liquid metal, inert gas or vacuum and is correspondingly expensive.
  • a self-recovering current limiting device with liquid metal Between two fixed metal electrodes, a pressure-resistant insulating housing is arranged, is arranged in the liquid metal in the compressor rooms and in intermediate connecting the compressor compartments connecting channels, so that a current path is given for nominal currents between the fixed electrodes.
  • the connection channels are strongly heated during short-circuit currents and secrete a gas.
  • the liquid metal evaporates into the compressor chambers, so that a current-limiting arc is ignited in the now liquid-metal-depleted connection channels. After the overcurrent has subsided, the liquid metal can condense again and the current path is ready for operation again.
  • the connecting channels are widened conically upwards, so that the liquid level of the liquid metal varies and the rated current carrying capacity can be changed over a wide range.
  • a meandering current path is formed by an offset arrangement of the connecting channels, so that a series of current-limiting arcs is ignited in the event of overflow-induced evaporation of the liquid metal.
  • Such pinch effect current limiters require a very stable in terms of pressure and temperature construction, which is structurally complex. Due to the current limitation by means of an arc, large wear occurs inside the current limiter and burnt-off residues can contaminate the liquid metal. As a result of the recondensation of the liquid metal, a conductive state returns immediately after a short circuit, with the result that no switch-off state is present.
  • GB 1 206 786 discloses a liquid metal based electrical high current switch.
  • the liquid metal forms in a first position a first current path for the operating current and is guided during current switching along a resistive element and brought into a second position in which it is in series with the resistive element and reduces the current to a small fraction.
  • the high-current switch is designed to generate high-intensity current pulses in the mega- ampere and sub-millisecond range for plasma generation.
  • a movable electrode is realized in the form of a slide which can be moved on rails, which can be electromagnetically deflected by short-circuit currents. In the deflected state, the carriage contacts a rail area which has a current-limiting electrical resistance for the current path.
  • a liquid metal column which is easily movable in a channel can also serve as a movable electrode.
  • the current limiter in turn, has no turn-off state, but is arranged in series with a power switch to initially limit the current and then turn it off completely.
  • the object of the present invention is to specify a method, a device and an electrical switchgear with such a device for improved and simplified current limitation and power cutoff. This object is achieved according to the invention by the features of the independent claims.
  • the invention resides in a current limiting method comprising a current limiting device comprising fixed electrodes and at least one movable electrode, wherein in a first operating state between the stationary electrodes an operating current is passed on a first current path through the current limiting device and the first current path is at least partially passed through the located in a first position movable electrode, wherein in a second operating state, the at least one movable electrode is automatically moved by an electromagnetic interaction with the overcurrent to be limited along a direction of movement in at least a second position, the movable electrode at a Transition is guided from the first position to the second position along a resistive element and in the at least one second position in series with the resistive element and thereby a current limiting second current path is formed by the current limiting device having a predetermined electrical resistance, further wherein in a third operating state, the movable electrode is in series with an insulator and thereby an insulation gap for power shutdown is formed by the device.
  • the overcurrent itself triggers the current limit.
  • B. the Lorenz force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field in question, but also a capacitive, inductive, electrostatic or otherwise electromagnetic influence of the overcurrent on the movable conductor portion or the movable electrode are conceivable. Since no insulator, but an electrical resistance is contacted by the movable electrode in current limiting case, no arc is ignited. Therefore, the current limiting method can be used even at very high voltage levels. In addition, hardly occurs wear due to erosion or corrosion of the movable electrode. The current limitation is reversible and is therefore easy to maintain and inexpensive.
  • the third operating state is triggered by a shutdown command, by which an external magnetic field is switched between an operation of the device as a current limiter and as a power switch.
  • the movable electrode in the third operating state, is moved along an opposite direction of movement into at least a third position and is in the at least one third position in series with the insulator.
  • the movable electrode is automatically guided by the electromagnetic interaction with the overcurrent to be limited along the resistance element to an extremal second position, wherein the extremal second position is in a region where the resistance element merges into an insulator, so that the or a further isolation path for power cut is formed.
  • the resistance element is selected to provide a smooth turn-off characteristic with a non-linearly increasing electrical resistance for the second current path along the direction of movement of the movable electrode; and / or the resistive element is ohmic and the electrical resistance increases continuously with the second position. In this way, a gentle current limiting characteristic for a progressive current limitation is realized.
  • the embodiment according to claim 6 has the advantage that the magnetic field acts directly on the current-carrying movable electrode and sets them in motion by the Lorenz force.
  • the Lorenz force is proportional to the product of magnetic field strength and current.
  • the magnetic field can be generated externally, in particular constant or switchable, or internally, in particular by the current to be limited.
