Effect of circuit breaker reclosure time on the performance of a power system / Tuan Affindi Tuan Abdullah

The magnitude and duration of restrikes upon the recloser of the terminals of a circuit breaker is important as failure to close at the right time may lead to detrimental effect to the power system in which the circuit breaker reside. For the purpose of demonstrating the operation of the circuit bre...
