In this paper, we investigated the variations of initial fault current limiting instant according to fault angles in the flux-lock type SFCL. The flux-lock type SFCL consists of the coil 1 and the coil 2 that are wound in parallel each other through an iron core. The operation of the flux-lock type SFCL can be divided into the subtractive polarity winding and the additive polarity winding operations according to the winding directions between the coil 1 and coil 2. The subtractive polarity winding operation could be analyzed with three modes. On the other hand, the additive polarity winding operation could be analyzed with five modes. The variations of initial fault current limiting instant in two winding directions were dependent on the fault angles. It was confirmed from experiment that the fault current limiting instant was getting faster and the magnitude of fault current at the initial fault time was getting higher for higher fault angle.

The only method used in the power stations in order to deliver generated electric power is 6 kV XLPE (or CV) single core cables. Among many kinds of accidents happening in the power stations, the outbreak of fire due to the deterioration of live cables causes enormous socioeconomic losses. From the installation of the cables, the management and diagnose should be thoroughly made. Even though it differs depending on the installations and usage conditions, the cross-sectional area of cables is in shortage. The excessive allowable temperature caused from the current causes the deterioration of cables. In order to prevent an unexpected breakdown of live cables, we have invented a device to monitor and diagnose the status of cables. We have installed our device in the Korea Western Power Co., Ltd.. In this paper, we present our research results in situ that we have obtained by measuring the temperature of sheath, changing with the surrounding circumstances, especially ambient temperatures. We also show our study results of characteristics for temperature of sheath surface and load current at the ambient temperatures of $40^{\circ}C-10^{\circ}C$.

Accident likelihood is growing due to a correlation for gas and electricity installed in the area of dense energy consumption like traditional market and underground shopping center. In order to prevent and respond accident risks related to gas and electricity in this area, it should be monitored and predicted for factors of gas leak or electricity by developing safety management system. This study is about accident prediction model development considering fire risk factor related to gas accident. The temperature variation characteristic near a gas burner was analyzed. Also, accident prediction algorithm and related module were developed to prevent fire in the area of dense energy consumption.

논문은 전류원 HVDC로 연계되어 있는 제주-해남 계통을 전압원 HVDC로 연계하였을 경우에 대한 특성 분석에 대해서 기술하고 있다. 기존의 제주-해남 HVDC시스템은 교류계통 전압의 외란에 의해서 전류실패가 발생할 수 있으므로 연계되는 교류계통 모선에 무효전력보상설비들이 설치되어 있다. 따라서 기존의 전류원 HVDC 시스템은 대용량의 전력을 전송할 수 있다는 장점이 있는 반면 추가로 무효전력 보상설비들이 설치가 되어야 한다는 단점이 있기 때문에 최근에 선진국에서는 전압원 HVDC 시스템에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 전압원 HVDC 시스템은 계통사고 또는 교류전압강하로 인한 전류실패가 발생하지 않고, 무효전력을 HVDC 시스템의 용량내에서 유효전력과 독립적으로 제어될 수 있기 때문에 추가로 무효전력 보강설비가 필요하지 않다는 장점이 있다. 본 논문에서 늘 제주-해남 계통을 전압원 HVDC로 연계하는 모델을 PSCAD/EMTDC를 이용해서 개발하였다. 개발된 시뮬레이션 모델은 전압원 HVDC를 이용해서 제주-해남 계통을 연계하였을 경우에 대한 동특성을 분석하는데 유용하리라 사료된다.

본 논문에서는 배전계통 주변압기 중성선에 초전도 한류기를 적용할 경우 고장전류 제한 및 회복특성에 대해 분석하였다. 배전계통에 초전도한류기 적용위치에 따라 초전도한류기의 부담이 다르게 되며, 이에 따라 고장전류 제한효과를 포함한 건전선로에 미치는 영향에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 배전계통내에 초전도한류기의 다양한 적용위치중에서 주변압기 중성선에 초전도한류기를 적용할 경우 보다 빈번하게 발생하는 비대칭사고에 대해 효과적으로 고장전류를 제한할 수 있음을 모의실험을 통해 분석하였다. 이와 더불어 고장제거시 초전도한류기의 회복특성에서도 선로 각 상에 초전도한류기를 적용할 경우보다 중성선에 적용할 경우에 회복시간이 크게 감소되는 것을 모의실험을 통해 비교할 수 있었다.

The BEF on the radial distribution line refers to a class of ground faults in which the load-side power line only is grounded, with the distribution line broken into two parts, the source-side and the load-side. Because its mechanism is remarkably different from that of other earth faults, the fault current is very low, and then difficult to detect the BEF. Thus, it is necessary to analyze its properties and to find an appropriate method that can economically protect the BEF of nonautomation area in the substation. As a result of analyzing the BEF data obtained by the RTDS, EMTP simulation, and the field test data of ETSA, we believe that it is the dominant factor in distinguishing the BEF from normal conditions by a criterion value that is appropriately handled from the zero-sequence current. Thus, with this criterion value, a BEF detecting algorithm is constructed which measures the variations of the zero-sequence current and processes then properly so as to make the fault decision. To prove the accuracy of this algorithm, it is compared with the field test data of ETSA under various conditions. The results show that the proposed algorithm is accurate.

It is always desirable that the continuation of power flow through the lines should not be interrupted for a long time. The optimized guideline of reclosers on distribution lines is known to improve the reliability of power systems, the protection functions on distribution systems heavily rely on the number and placement of such reclosers. This study reviewed the effect of using protection settings methodology with the number of reclosing operations to reduce the damage sustained during faults on distribution networks. The aim of the study is to determine the number of reclosing operations and fault current conditions based on simulation data of PSCAD/EMTDC for standard distribution networks. It is found that the determination of the number of operations on reclosers, which are the protection function of feeders, helped to optimize the operation and reliability of distribution networks.

Recently, with the growth of software for electromagnetic-thermal analysis, it has been studied that the precise analysis and investigation for cause of the electrical fire using computer simulation is on the basis of theroy for electromagnetic-thermal analysis. But it is very lacking for the precise analysis and investigation of cause for the electrical fire. In this paper, we have simulated the temperature distribution of wire to current and the force between the two conductors according to the current and the distance of the vinyl flat-type electrical wire(600 V, VFF, $2C{\times}$1.25mm^2) using the finite element method(Flux2D) in a overcurrent. And we will present the cause analysis method of electrical fire by experiment for distance between the two conductors according to current and time using large current supply device(Model: EHT_EFAD, Korea) in a overcurrent.

If leakage current is neglected, it can become a cause for disasters such as electric shock and fire, therefore a continuous monitoring is necessary. However in most cases, because management of substations is performed by unmanned systems, or walk-around inspections, continuous monitor is difficult. So when an accident occurs and the cause is not immediately resolved causing the emergency generator's OCGR getting activated by the leakage current that in turn cut off the ACB, the emergency generator may stop working. To prevent such a problem, a real-time integrated monitoring system for monitoring the leakage current returning to the grounding wire of neutral point of the low voltage side of transformer is proposed. Therefore in this paper, the effects of flow of leakage current, which is caused by insulation degradation phenomena or insulation destroy phenomena, were identified by simulation. And through cases studies; the excellence of integrated monitoring system was verified.

This paper deals with the power supply facility providing wireless power transmission for a type of electric vehicles called the on-line electric vehicle(OLEV) and proposes optimal protection coordination methods which analyze the faultsin the 60Hz and 20kHz bands using PSCAD/EMTDC, which is the typical commercial software for the distribution system. The simulation results show that the proposed methods can reduce the fault current by introducing an NGR (Neutral Ground Resistor) in the 60Hz band and prevent the malfunctioning of the protection device by installing a CT in the neutral wire in the 20kHz band when a ground fault occurs.
