Abstract
A DC power distribution system includes: a transformer; a rectification device; a DC bus through which DC power flows; a plurality of DC branch lines branching off from the DC bus; an AC interrupting portion connected to an input side of the transformer; a first DC interrupting portion connected between the rectification device and the DC bus; and a plurality of second DC interrupting portions respectively provided to the plurality of DC branch lines. An interrupting-operation time for each second DC interrupting portion is set to be shorter than interrupting-operation times for the AC interrupting portion and the first DC interrupting portion. An inductance value of a short-circuit impedance of the transformer is set to a value at which short-circuit current can be limited to take a value not larger than a maximum current value permitted for the rectification device.
