MAGNETOTHERMAL CURRENT LIMITING DEVICE

A current limiting device including a transformer including an element made from a magnetothermal material, a primary conductor, and a secondary winding. Heat is generated by the current flowing through the primary conductor and when the current exceeds a certain threshold it modifies the coupling c...

Zusammenfassung:A current limiting device including a transformer including an element made from a magnetothermal material, a primary conductor, and a secondary winding. Heat is generated by the current flowing through the primary conductor and when the current exceeds a certain threshold it modifies the coupling coefficient of the transformer, which makes it possible to limit the current in the primary conductor.
