A fault current limiter designed for connection into a medium voltage, high voltage, or extra-high voltage substation or other high voltage source such as a generator station, the limiter including: a ferromagnetic circuit formed from a ferromagnetic material and including at least a first limb, a second limb and a third limb; a first input phase coil wound around the first limb, a second output phase coil wound around the third limb; a saturation mechanism surrounding a limb for magnetically saturating the ferromagnetic material; a containment vessel providing a substantially uniform, low electrical conductivity medium surrounding the ferromagnetic circuit, the phase coils and the saturation mechanism.
