DIN IEC/TR 62543 ; VDE 0553-543:2012-06
High-voltage direct current (HVDC) power transmission using voltage sourced converters (VSC) (IEC/TR 62543:2011)

Technical Report

Overview

This Technical Report deals with voltage-sourced converters used for transmission of power by high voltage direct current. It describes converters that are not only voltage-sourced but also self-commutated, using semiconductor devices which can both be turned on and turned off by control action. The scope includes 2-level and 3-level converters with pulse-width modulation (PWM), along with multi-level converters, but excludes 2-level and 3-level converters operated without PWM, in square-wave output mode. The various types of circuit that can be used for "VSC transmission" are described in this report, along with their principal operational characteristics and typical applications. The overall aim is to provide a guide for purchasers to assist with the task of specifying a VSC transmission scheme. Line-commutated and current-sourced converters are specifically excluded from this report. The responsible committee is K 331 "Leistungselektronik" ("Power electronics") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
