DC circuit breakers are a key enabling technology for reliable multi-terminal DC (MTDC) grids. By providing selective fault isolation, they help ensure that HVDC networks remain stable, available and resilient, even when disturbances occur.

In this video, Anders Gullerfelt, Global Product Specialist HVDC at Hitachi Energy, explains the challenges of fault management in DC grids, why fast fault interruption is critical and how DC AxoniQ™ Protect enables reliable MTDC operation by detecting and clearing faults within milliseconds.

As HVDC networks become larger and more interconnected, advanced protection solutions such as DC AxoniQ™ Protect are emerging as critical building blocks for resilient, flexible and scalable DC grids.
