Scientific paper

Feasibility is determined for using current limiting devices (CLD) in switching heavy DC currents (1,200 and 600 amperes) at utilization voltages used in the mining industry (300 and 600 volts, nominal). Use of a CLD in this application is based on its orders of magnitude change in resistance when it changes state (from liquid mercury to vapor) after being subjected to short time, high density current. Switching times on the order of 3 to 4 milliseconds have been obtained.
