Introduction HVDC Advantages Disadvantages: cost, harmonics, reactive power, point to point access, overload
Monopolar link
Only one energized conductor normally of negative polarity Ground or sea water used as return path
Bipolar link
Two conductors with polarities (+ve and -ve) represented as Neutral points (junction between convertors) are grounded If there is fault on one conductor other conductor can be used with half of the rating
Homopolar link
Two or more conductor with same polarity (generally -ve) Operates ground as return If there is fault on one conductor other conductor can be used with half of the rating
Convertors Convertor transformer Smoothing reactor AC (Harmonic) filter Overhead lines Reactive power source
Earth electrode
