Abstract
The present disclosure is related to a fault current limiter comprising, a current limiting unit configured to limit a fault current according to a reactance value by increasing the reactance value if the fault current is generated, and a driving unit configured to increases an inductance of the current limiting unit by generating a repulsive force by means of the fault current when the fault current is received and the driving unit is connected to the front end of the current limiting unit.
