For this International Project, both the Italian National Agency for New Technology, Energy and Sustainable Economic Development (ENEA) and the French Alternative Energies and Comissariat à l’Energie Atomique et aux Energies alternatives (CEA) have to provide overall twelve AC/DC pulse poloidal superconducting magnet power supplies (almost all rated for ±20 kA and ±1 kV). Each of them is equipped with a crowbar protection system. The crowbar system’s first function is to carry the current that is flowing through the superconducting coils and protects the AC/DC power converter from over-voltages, internal/external severe faults and in case of earthquakes. The current capability type test of crowbar system required a maximum peak current of ±26 kA and a maximum specific energy I2t = 4,6 GA2s for TF SCMPS. Finally the crowbar system and DC bus-bars were subjected to seismic tests in laboratory., 29th Symposium on Fusion Technology (SOFT2016)}, title = {Design and Testing of Crowbar Protection System for the JT- 60SA Superconducting Magnet Power Supplies}, year = {2016} }
