Abstract

This study presents the failure rate and repair rate of Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL) and adjacent distribution equipments. When the fault current penetrated SFCL, the supply of electric power to the customers can be partly continued. It is expected that SFCL makes to improve the reliability index of customers. Contrary to the expectations, the series connection between SFCL and distribution system could deteriorate the reliability index. To evaluate the reliability index in the distribution system including SFCL, the failure rate and repair rate of SFCL are required as well as that of distribution equipments. Also, the insertion of SFCL makes to change the failure rate and repair rate of adjacent equipments. This study proposes a method to calculate the failure rate and repair rate of a component combining SFCL and adjacent equipments.
