Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention generally relates to the field of power systems such as power distribution or transmission systems, for example high voltage direct current (HVDC) power transmission systems. In particular, the present invention relates to a switch assembly for use in an electrical circuit between a first electrical conductor and a second electrical conductor, the electrical circuit being configured to carry electrical current between the first electrical conductor and the second electrical conductor. Background technique
[0002] Power systems such as power distribution or transmission systems are used to supply, transmit and use electricity. High voltage direct current (HVDC) power transmission is becoming increasingly important due to the increased demands on power transmission and distribution systems for power supply or delivery and interconnection. A power system, such as a power distribution or transmission system, typically includes a pro...
