Abstract

In this work the user wind turbine com-ponent is created using FORTRAN and implemented in PSCAD. The fault current limiter (FCL) is associated with braking resistor to reduce fault current and DC link voltage. The comparative simulation is done with and without the protection devices under the three phase and the single phase faults. The converter remains connected and continue to con-trol the wind turbine. Finally, it is proved that the use of fault current limiter with the active crowbar can protect the wind turbine during fault or low voltage, thus ensuring it uninterruptible operation.
