In recent years, equipment and network standards have been increasing in both number and complexity. Two standards that will soon be introduced to KOREA are the HV standards for assessing distorting and fluctuating loads, IEC 61000-3-6. Utility engineers, being under increasing time constraints, are turning more and more to software to quickly solve problems. This paper describes the methodology used to implement the above standards in Microsoft Excel in order to assist utility engineers to readily apply these standards in practical situations.

A method is proposed in this paper to determine the harmonic contributions of a customer at the point of common coupling. The method can quantify customer and utility responsibilities for limit violations caused by either harmonic source changes or harmonic impedance changes. It can be implemented in current power quality monitors and digital revenue meters. The method is comparison of measurement phase angles between harmonic voltage and current. The proposed method has been applied to the test system. The study results have indicated the accuracy of harmonic injection and emission for customer and utility.

가용송전용량(ATC) 계산의 기준이 되는 총송전용량(TTC)은 일반적으로 열, 전압, 안정도 한계치에 의해 결정된다. 국내 계통의 송전선로 길이를 고려할 때 이 세 가지 한계치 중 열 정격은 TTC 결정에 가장 큰 비중을 차지하는 요소이다. 따라서 본 논문은 열 정격에 기상상태의 변화를 고려한 송전용량(DLR)의 개념을 도입하고 TTC를 결정하는 새로운 접근법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 기존 방법과 비교하여, 주변의 물리적 환경 변화에 따른 정확한 계산 결과를 도출함으로써 실시간 사용 가능한 용량의 평가가 가능토록 한다. 사례연구에서는 KEPCO의 PSS/E 데이터를 이용하여 기존의 방법과 제안하는 방법을 비교함으로써 제안하는 방법의 유용성을 보였다. DLR을 적용한 ATC평가의 방법은 전기적 안전 범위 내에서 ATC의 평가 결과를 증가시킴으로써, 선로 운영자에게 경제성 측면의 유용한 정보가 될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper proposes a new algorithm for the optimal placement of a step voltage regulator(SVR) in distribution system with Distributed Generators(DG) using a Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO). The objective function of this algorithm is to find optimal placement for minimum loss while maintaining each node voltage fluctuations within upper and lower limits. In the objective function of proposed algorithm, the deviations to reference voltage and the distribution loss are considered. To verify effectiveness of the proposed method, simulation is implemented using MATLAB.

The parameters of electromechanical modes offer considerable insight into the dynamic stability properties of a power system. This paper presents a results of a LFO(low-frequency oscillation) based on the time-synchronized signals measured by synchrophasor in the rolling blackout. Spectral analysis was performed, and critical parameters were estimated using the data acquired from synchrophasors installed in the KEPCO system. As significant modes, a 0.68 Hz oscillation mode that occurred prior to the forced load shedding in the rolling blackout was estimated. Such an oscillation mode can cause an uncontrollable blackout. Therefore, the system should be operated so that significant oscillation modes are not activated. This results can serve as a reference in the future for reliable system operation in the event of a similar blackout.

This paper presents the minimization of the fuel cost by optimal allocation of P-Q generation in a three-bus sample system. Derivation of the system loss sensitivities by optimization technique is introduced. The loss sensitivities are substituted into the optimality conditions and the optimal P-Q allocation is computed to obtain the minimal fuel cost.

Measurement of ground resistance is the basic and important procedure to evaluate the proriety of grounding systems performance. In the field, however, it is not an easy task to measure ground resistance accurately, because locating a right position of zero potential for accurate GPR(Ground Potential Rise) measurement is very difficult, especially in case of a grounding electrode with large dimension. In this paper, the estimation method of ground resistance by analysing earth surface potential distribution around the grounding electrodes has been described.

Since power system is switching to smart grid, on-line monitoring technology has become necessary for underground distribution power cable. Therefore, the application of DTS(Distributed Temperature Sensing) technology using OFCPC(Optical Fiber Composite Power Cable) capable of monitoring underground distribution power cables has been developed. These can bring about reductions in faults and increases in operating capacity of underground distribution system. To date, the test-bed of optical fiber composite power cable on-line monitoring system has been constructed. Then, matters to be improved have been drawn through verification experiments. This paper presents the improvement and experiment results of the optical fiber composite power cable on-line monitoring system to apply to underground distribution lines in the field.

Because of the high increasing rate of load demand, these days the necessity of deciding what optimum reserve level is appropriate to most stably supply electricity is being emphasized. This research studies the downward tendency of reverve ratio by analyzing the trend of change of the network scale, reserve, and reserve ratio while optimum reserve has been increased as the network system scale grow up. This means, at this moment 6,000MW is optimum level for short term prospect of power supply and demand. And also, it has been analyzed that, as the annual peak load exceeded 50,000MW, confirming the amount of optimum reserve level is more stable than keeping 10 to 12% reserve ratio.

Recently, the concern of PV systems has increased because of an environmental problem and limitation of fossil fuel. In this paper, we assume and simulate the cases that the voltage of distribution system exceed the bound of voltage regulation because of the connected PV system. Also, we compare the typical method, LDC(Line Drop Compensator), with the suggested method and verify propriety of suggested method.
