    This document discusses automatic circuit reclosers, including their characteristics, types, principles of operation, and applications. Automatic circuit reclosers are intelligent protective devices that can interrupt fault current and automatically attempt to re-energize power lines after faults, such as short circuits, to restore power. They are used to protect electrical networks and increase reliability by isolating temporary faults while maintaining service. Common types include single-phase and three-phase reclosers, and they can be applied in both radial feeder and substation configurations.

    • Application
    WHAT IS AUTOMATIC CIRCUIT RECLOSER (ACR)
    • The ACR (Automatic Circuit Recloser) system is used to automatically switch on the device after a
    specified time, only if it was open during protection operation during temporary or non-permanent
    network disturbances. ACR system is used in HV (High Voltage) and MV (Medium Voltage) networks with
    ring systems, in which there are no problems of system stability.

    • Automatic Circuit Recloser (ACR) is an intellectual protective device capable of interrupting fault
    current and which purpose is to increase distribution system reliability. Their function is to
    automatically disconnect a section of feeder in the event of fault, such as a short circuit. After a
    certain period of time, the recloser makes a specified number of attempts to re-energize the line
    to restore power supply to consumers.

    • Thanks to the function ACR in circuits with protection with grading of time, it is possible to quickly switch
    off first by implementing instantaneous protection. A quick shutdown reduces the arc duration to a
    minimum, which reduces the risk of line damage. Protection with a short time delay protects the system
    against damage fuses and eliminates the pre-arc appearing on the switch.

    TYPES OF RECLOSERS
    •
    • Are used to protect single-phase lines such as branches or
    taps of a three-phase feeder. They can also be used on
    three-phase circuits where the load is predominantly single-
    phase. When a permanent phase-to-ground fault occurs,
    one phase can be locked-out while service is maintained to
    the remaining two-thirds of the system.
    • Due to the lighter weight of the single-phase recloser
    compared to larger three-phase reclosers, single-phase
    reclosers are typically mounted directly to the pole or
    substation steel structure individually by the built-in mounting
    hanger bracket which eliminates the need for an additional
    mounting frame.
    • Single-phase reclosers can be controlled with a hydraulic
    control (integrated within the recloser tank), or an electronic
    control (housed in a separate enclosure) based upon the
    recloser design.

    WORKING PRINCIPALS OF AUTOMATIC CIRCUIT RECLOSER

    • Recloser is continuously reading real-time data about the power


    line using current transformers and voltage sensors. In the event of
    a fault, when the voltage, current, or frequency values exceed the
    settings of the microprocessor relay protection device, the recloser
    control sends an impulse to the drive of the switching module
    located on a pole.
    MAIN FUNCTIONS OF RECLOSERS
    • Recloser can be used both to perform simple protective functions and complex algorithms for
    automation of distribution networks. Modern reclosers perform the following functions:
    • Automatic disconnection of damaged line sections;
    • Auto-reclosing;
    • Automatic restore of power supply from the network of alternative power source
    • local and remote network reconfiguration;
    • Self-diagnostics;
    • Measurement of network mode parameters;
    • Keeping the logs of operational and emergency events in the line;
    APPLICATION OF RECLOSERS
    •
    FEEDER APPLICATION: RADIAL LINE RECLOSER

    • When a recloser is installed on a radial feeder it automatically


    clears transient faults and isolates permanent faults. More than one
    recloser can be installed on a feeder to isolate faults selectively and
    ensure fewer customers are affected.
