Abstract
A high-voltage DC circuit breaker for breaking a current that flows in a DC line, including: a main switch, installed on the DC line, for breaking a current of the DC line by opening when a fault occurs on one side or a remaining side of the DC line; a nonlinear resistor connected in parallel with the main switch; an LC circuit that is connected in parallel with the main switch and includes a capacitor and a reactor, which are connected in series in order to generate LC resonance; a first bidirectional switching element, connected to the LC circuit in series, for switching a bidirectional current flow; and a second bidirectional switching element, connected in parallel with the LC circuit, for switching a current flow to induce LC resonance in both directions.
