description The use of standard HVac disconnectors for bus-transfer switching in future HVdc gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) has been demonstrated successfully in past research through simulation and testing. Prolonged arcing times through reignitions caused by high frequency harmonics as well as the proposed extension of GIS disconnector switching cases, however, create an HVdc-specific demand for more advanced disconnector concepts capable of withstanding higher switching stresses and increased recovery voltages. A spring-loaded disconnector designed for use in HVac mixed technology switchgear was found to shorten the time to first current zero through an accelerated increase of the arcing voltage compared to standard disconnectors. Despite its increased switching performance, the reignition characteristics of this fast-acting disconnector were found to largely follow the previously established extinction criterion, which enables further simulation of similar technologies for HVdc applications. To additionally combat the issue of contamination of HVdc GIS by electrode erosion products, a prototype disconnector was improved using permanent magnets to evoke arc rotation. Erosion tests in air have shown an effective reduction of electrode erosion for long arcing times at currents typical for disconnector switching, whereas bus-transfer tests revealed promising enhancements of the reignition behavior.
