HVDC disconnector switches:HVDC disconnecting switches (DS) are used to disconnect various circuits in HVDC transmission networks. For example, the HVDC DS is applied to switching duties such as line or cable-charging current switching, no-load line, or cable transfer switching, in addition to disconnecting equipment including a converter bank (thyristor valve), a filter bank, and a grounding line. HVDC DS is also applied to DC switchgear to terminate the residual or leakage current through an in
