Title: Wind power plant enhancement with a fault-current limiter
Description: This paper investigates the capability of a saturable core fault-current limiter to limit the short circuit current of different types of wind turbine generators. Different faults are simulated to investigate the effectiveness of the FCL to limit the SCC and to reduce transient torque during faults. Several cases will be considered to demonstrate the benefits of using FCLs in unique situations.
