Catastrophic Failure Modes of Solid-State Transformers: Capacitor Rupture, SiC Single-Event Burnout, and the Fire-Safety Question
ยท Power Electronics
4 sources Three SST-specific catastrophic failure modes: DC-link capacitor rupture, SiC single-event burnout, MFT thermal runaway. MPPF capacitor failure can produce localized fire or explosive event from internal gas pressure
