Abstract

It discloses a ring-connected bridge-type multi-port hybrid DC circuit breaker. When the number of ports is n, n is an integer greater than or equal to 2, the ring-connected bridge-type multi-port hybrid DC circuit breaker includes: an upper DC bus bar, a lower DC bus bar, n thyristor arms, n diode arms, a main breaker branch, and n bypass branches; each thyristor arm connects in series with a diode arm, forming a series circuit; a bypass branch is connected between every two adjacent series circuits, a port is provided at the connection point of the thyristor arm and the diode arm in each series circuit, and the port is used to connect the protected components or the DC lines.
