Abstract: To-day the significant part of equipment for FACTS and power motor drives are based on series connected turn-off power semiconductor devices (IGCT or IGBT). The similar and the difference between high voltage turn-off valve (HVTV) based on IGCTs or IGBTs are considered, such as air or liquid cooling option, snubber configuration, acceptable length of semiconductor stack and specific features of drivers for HVTV.
