This paper presents the operation principle and design rule of the Rogowski coil which can measure the transient current and describes the calibration and application experimental results for performance evaluation. It is obtained that the response curves of the Robowski coil with the turns of 300 and the passive integrator to sinusoidal input give a good linearity up to the frequency of 500 [kHz] and the current measurement system gaving the Rogowski coil is the frequency bandwidth of 40 [Hz]~700 [kHz]. As an application experiment for the fabricated modeling power transmission line, the impulse current, which limitates the direct lightning return stroke to overhead ground wire, is measured by the Rogowski coil and its fast Fourier transformation is carried out. The equivalent circuit of the Rogowski coil considering the stray capacitances is proposed, and the theoretical analysis is in good agreement with the measurement results. Also, it is found that for high frequency domain the stray capacitance such as a distributed capacitance to the shield and the capacitance between windings of coil should be considered in designing the Rogowski coils since the resonance originates from the stray capacitance and the self-inductance of the Rogowski coil.

Rogowski coil is made having no ferromagnetic material in a core. So the coil cannot be driven into saturation. This result in that Rogowski coils may be calibrated at relatively low currents. and used with confidence at very high currents. However the lowest level of current that can be measured is limited by the sensitivity of the voltage measuring instrument and system noise. Therefore. geometrical effects were investigated in order to measure high sensitivity of low level current and the significant source of error was examined as well. In the results, the source of error was associated with coil designs. i.e. shape and uniformity of coil and a geometrical location of current source inside and outside of the Rogowski coil.

Conventionally, air-cored Rogowski coil was designed for use as high alternating and transient current sensor without saturation caused by ferromagnetic material in its core. This paper investigated that Rogowski coil can be applied to low current measurement in 60Hz power line. Measured parameters R, L of coil were compared with theoretically calculated values. Output voltages crossed by Rogowski coil have shown some linearity according to input current(tens to thousands of amperes) passing through it. And also shielding effect for external noises was investigated for three cases.

The largest problem in applying the elecbical partial discharge measurement method the transformer that has been operated until now is the removal of external corona noise In this thesis, a methcd was studied. to rneasme only fue partial discharge sIgnal due to the defoct in transfonrer except the external corona noise. To find out the types of partial discharge and corona noise within a transfomr, a partial discharge was made in use of a needle-plane electrodes within a model transfonner and, at the same time, an external corona noise was generated in use of a rod-sphere electrcdes in the air around the transformer. Both of a partial clischarge signal caused from an intemat defect within a transformer and an external noise were found at the rogowski coil which was located at transformer earth wire. When the external corona noise, which was separately measured in use of an antenna sensor out of transfonner, was removed from the signal measured on rogowski coil, the signal caused by partial discharge within a transformer would effectively be acquired.quired.

회전기기의 운전 상태에서 on-line 부분 방전시험은 고정자 권선의 절연상태를 검사, 평가 할 수 있는 중요한 수단으로서 이러한 부분방전시험을 통하여 회전기기 시스템의 사고예방을 위한 진단을 할 수 있다. 기존의 비접촉식 센서인 SSC는 부분방전 측정을 위하여 권선의 웨지 아래에 설치하는 방식으로 개발되어 [1], 설치가 불편하고 Global VPI 방식으로 제작된 소형 회전기에는 설치할 수 없는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 소형 회전기에 사용가능한 저, 고주파용 부분방전 센서를 제안하였다. 웨지 위에 설치 가능한 SSC 형태의 마이크로스트립 센서 및 전송선로 이론을 이용한 2선 평행 전송선로 센서는 값이 싸고 소형 회전기에 설치할 수 있을 정도의 크기를 지니며, 기본적으로 센서의 구조가 고주파 웨이브가이드로서 고주파용 센서로 적합하다. 또한 저주파 신호를 검출하기 위한 센서로 로고우스키 코일 형태의 U 타입 센서는 와전류를 검출하는 센서로서 슬롯 외부에 설치 되어야 한다. 이러한 U 타입 센서와 마이크로스트립 센서 또는 2선 평행 전송선로를 동시에 설치할 경우 저, 고주파를 효과적으로 검출할 수 있다.

This paper presents the identification of void diameters for a cast-resin transformer using an artificial neural network (ANN) model. A PD signal was measured by the Rogowski coil sensor which has the planar and thin structures fabricated on a printed circuit board (PCB), and the PD electrode system was fabricated to simulate a PD defect by a void. In addition, void samples with different diameters were fabricated by injecting air in a cylindrical aluminum frame using a syringe during the epoxy curing process. To identify the diameter of void defects, PD characteristics such as the discharge magnitude, pulse count, and phase angle were extracted and back propagation algorithm (BPA) was designed using virtual instrument (VI) based on the Labview program. From the experimental results, the BPA algorithm proposed in this paper has over 90% accurate rate to identify the diameter of void defects and is expected to use reference data of maintenance and replacement of insulation for cast-resin transformers in the on-site PD measurement.

Recently, ubiquitous sensor network(USN) techniques have been applied to electric power facility management. This paper dealt with the designed and fabricated ubiquitous sensors which monitor transformers and lightning arresters installed in overhead distribution systems. The sensors consist of a 8-[bit] microprocessor unit, a wireless communication nodule specified in IEEE 802.15.4, and associated electronics. A Rogowski coil was fabricated to measure load of transformer and surge current without saturation having good linearity up to 1000[A]. A zero-phase current transformer with a high relative permeability of $10^5$ at 180[Hz] was used to detect small leakage current of $50[{\mu}A]{\sim}1[mA]$ flowing lightning arrester, and the frequency bandwidth of the module is ranges from 12[Hz] to 1.24[kHz] at -3[dB].
