Recently, a large ship slowly docked at the Qianjiang Wharf in Nan'ao, Shantou. The staff lifted and "unloaded" the equipment weighing 35 tons and resembling a "giant capsule" to the Nan’ao Jinniu Converter Station. This marks the entry of the world's first 160kV superconducting DC limiter into the installation and application phase.
This "giant capsule" is the fruit of the national key R&D plan led by Guangdong Power Grid Co., Ltd. of China Southern Power Grid—the world's first 160kV superconducting DC limiter. The Company started the "Key Technology Research on Superconducting DC Limiter" project in 2017, and has completed a series of studies on basic theories and key technologies, including basic theoretical research, high-temperature superconducting material research, superconducting DC limiter design and manufacturing, and other topics. The project is scheduled to be completed for installation and acceptance in June, and system joint commissioning in July. The trial operation of grid connection for the new members of the world power system will soon be realized.

世界首台160kV超导直流限流器进驻汕头南澳
近日，一艘大型船舶缓缓停靠在汕头南澳前江码头，工作人员将重达35吨、形似“巨型胶囊”的设备吊装“卸货”，运往南澳金牛换流站。这标志着世界首台160kV超导直流限流器将进入安装应用阶段。
这个“巨型胶囊”是由南方电网广东电网公司牵头研发的国家重点研发计划成果——世界首台160kV超导直流限流器。该司2017年开始启动“超导直流限流器的关键技术研究”项目，目前已完成基础理论研究、高温超导材料研究、超导直流限流器设计和制造等一系列基础理论和关键技术研究。工程计划于6月完成安装验收，7月份完成系统联调，世界电力系统的新成员将很快实现挂网试运行。
