ABSTRACT:
A power switching apparatus includes a positive-sequence fundamental signal magnitude detector. The positive-sequence fundamental signal magnitude detector derives a positive-sequence fundamental signal from a three-phase voltage signal carried by a power line; it also generates a switch firing command when the positive-sequence fundamental signal exceeds a predetermined threshold value indicative of a fault condition on the power line. The power switching apparatus also includes a solid state switch connected to the power line and the positive-sequence fundamental signal magnitude detector. The solid state switch bloch power on the power line in response to the switch firing command.
