The present invention relates to a high-voltage direct current (DC) circuit breaker for cutting off a fault current from flowing through a line during a malfunction in a high-voltage DC line. A DC circuit breaker according to the present invention comprises: a mechanical switch disposed on a DC line; an L/C circuit connected in parallel with the mechanical switch (110), and comprising a capacitor and a reactor connected in series to each other to generate LC resonance; a first semiconductor switch, connected in parallel to the L/C circuit, for switching the unidirectional flow of the current; and a second semiconductor switch, connected in parallel to the first semiconductor switch, for switching the uni- and reverse-directional flow of current. |
