Arc-quenching magnetically controlled reactors (AQMCRs) with automatic ground fault capacitive current compensation for 6 to 35 kV networks: A new generation of single-phase, magnetic-bias-controlled arc-quenching reactors with an automatic control system ensures continuous fine resonance tuning to network capacitance and permits almost non-inertial limitation of ground fault current with small values of residual current. In construction, mass, and dimension, they are like standard analogous electromechanical devices. Recommended for advanced use in electric networks of 6 to 35 kV of any type, but especially in branched municipal networks, new construction, and for replacement of obsolete equipment.
