Meshed dc distribution grids have advantages over radial connected ones. Challenges arise when this is done on the same voltage level and the full potential power might not be usable in certain configurations. This paper shows how the power flow in meshed dc grids can be increased by limiting the currents at congested lines. This can be done in a decentralized way with only local current measurements. Several realization possibilities for current limiting devices are introduced and discussed. Dynamic simulations are performed.
