Abstract

See full text

A solid-state zero current switching circuit breaker is configured to interrupt current flow between a voltage input and a load. The solid-state zero current switching circuit breaker includes at least one resonant capacitor cell having an input configured to receive a source voltage and an output configured to deliver drive current to the load. The resonant capacitor cell is configured to selectively limit the drive current to the output based on a variable voltage. The solid-state zero current switching circuit breaker further includes at least one voltage clamping switch configured to detect a short-circuit fault or an overload condition. The voltage clamping switch adjusts the variable voltage in response to detecting the short-circuit fault condition or the overload condition such that the resonant capacitor cell limits the drive current.
