Abstract  DC-side faults are the key issue of HVDC transmission based on modular multilevel converters(MMC), and in particular HVDC transmission is popularized for overhead line applications. In this paper, the characteristics of DC short-circuit faults are studied for a flexible DC power system. The half-bridge MMC fault equivalent circuit is established and the corresponding over-current analytical equation is deduced. The working mode of the hybrid DC circuit breaker breaking fault current is studied. A hybrid DC circuit breaker is used to propose a line reclosing strategy. On the PSCAD/EMTDC platform, a DC grid system simulation model was built to verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme. The results show that after the hybrid circuit breaker recloses, within 0.1s, the power of each converter station recovers and maintains stable operation. The DC grid can cross the short-circuit fault quickly and steadily.
