MOTIVATION Increase the power transfer capability of long AC transmission lines
Investigate converter transformer saturation in hybrid AC/DC:
Coupled transmission lines induce zero sequence current
Zero sequence flow into DC side as a fundamental frequency current (i60)
LCC converts i60 to be DC current components on the AC side
Conclusion• Zero-sequence current induced by non-transposed coupled transmission lines has been investigated
• I60 induced by non-transposed transmission lines will cause noticeable impact on converter transformer
• Proposed CCC HVDC and band-stop LC filter methods are verified by simulation

• CCC HVDC • Band-stop LC Filter
• 322 km non-transposed lines: I60 is around 2% for the original case and 0% for CCC HVDC and Band-stop LC filter cases
• CCC HVDC • Band-stop LC Filter
• Noticeable impact on converter transformer: I60 > 1%
• Blocking methods: CCC HVDC and LC filter
• I60 circulating loopI60 Induced by Non-transposed Lines
• Zig-zag transformer • Tower Structure
• DC current component on AC by I60

• Non-transposed transmission lines
cause unbalanced line to ground and
line to line capacitances
• Unbalanced currents with I60 are
induced with balanced voltage
applying on unbalanced capacitances
• I60 increases with the line length
