The primary role of ZnO arresters is to protect transmission and distribution equipments against lightning surges. The extremely nonlinear V-I characteristics of the ZnO arrester obviates the need for isolation gaps and consequently it is continuously connected to line voltage. For this reason, ZnO arresters are degraded with increasing with time in actual power systems. In this work, the characteristics of the luminous events between the ZnO block and electrodes were investigated. As a result, the luminous events were effected by the impulse and the near polarity of the luminous event was intense near the grounded electrode. Also the luminous event may cause the degradation of ZnO arrester block.

Lightning has been identified as one of the leading causes of outages on transmission and distribution systems. As sensitive loads and reliance on electric power increase year by year, it is getting more focus on stable and high quality of power supply. To protect the transmission and distribution line from lightning, the transmission lightning arrester can be the effective facility on the power system. This paper discusses Gapped type Arresters application results by analysing effects of lightning arresters on transmission and distribution line.

Since 1970s, varistors using metal-oxide resistors have been applied to Gapless surge arresters for power system. In the paper, the structure of metal-oxide surge arresters without gaps for 362kV GIS which is developed the first in korea has been introduced. And the main evaluation items for the metal-oxide resistors which are reference voltage test, residual voltage test, long duration current impulse withstand test and operating duty test is tested and evaluated.

The paper describes the development of arrester for 154kV class power station and substation. The arrester employs silicone insulating materials for Its housing, instead of the conventional porcelain housing. The sealing integrity is related to safe operation of surge arrester, the prime failure reason of porcelain housed arresters is moisture ingress. In this paper, the sealing integrity of polymeric surge arresters for ultra high voltage is investigated with moisture ingress test. The diagnostic techniques are discusses, including watt loss, partial discharge, AC leakage current, 1mA DC voltage and residual voltage.

It has been appeared and widely used today SF6 Gas Insulated Substation(Hereafter called GIS) for the power supply to the densely populated area due to the superior insulation withstand ability of SF6 Gas. And to maximize the compact effect of this substation, it is normal practice to connect underground cables. If it is possible to elieminate the redundant lightning arresters using the physical characterestics of travelling waves in underground cables, economical advantages can be obtained together with easy maintenances. It is presented in this paper the possiblity of eliminating the transformer protection lightning arresters under some conditions for the 154kV GIS's (BIL:750kV) which Korea Electric Co. plans to construct using the general purpose digital computer program.

This study reports on the pressure relief design and braided composite of surge arrester. Surge arresters with porcelain housing must not have explosive breakage of the housing to minimize damage to other equipment when subjected to internal high short circuit current. As a solution, this study describes pressure relief design performance of arresters with braided composite module. In general, braided composite has Potential for improved impact and delamination resistance. Manufacturing processes of the braided composite could also be automated and could potentially lead to lower costs. Therefore, in consideration of characteristics of pressure relief for polymer arrester, the fabric pattern of braided composite was decided. And Polymer arrester module was manufactured with braid. The mechanisms of pressure occurrence and relief were investigated basically by analyzing arc energy and the correlation between thermal shock and indoor pressure in pressure relief test.

In this study, dynamic characteristics of water hammer pressure in water supply piping system with water hammer arrester has been investigated experimentally to characterize the transient pressure of water hammer in high rise building. Experiments were conducted to verify the absorption effects by water hammer arresters with 3 different gas volumes of water hammer pressure generated by sudden valve closure. As the results, it has been found that zoning and sizing of pipe diameter for suitable flow velocity and water hammer arresters with effective pressure absorption capacity have to be installed to protect water hammer problems in building water supply piping system.

This paper describes the AC accelerated ageing characteristics of zinc oxide varistors for the station class lightning surge arresters. ZnO varistors whose rated voltage were 3.27kV, 4.00kV, and 6.00kV were manufactured with general ceramic production methods. The power loss of sample A varistors rapidly increased and eventually showing the thermal run-away, but sample B and sample C varistors exhibited negative creep phenomena in power losses during the test.

The simulation study of lightning faults reducing effects by the installation of surge arresters on the 154 kV transmission line is stated here. For the purpose of detailed simulation of arcing horn, a flashover model with dynamic characteristics of arcing horn gap was represented as a non-linear inductance which is controlled by EMTP/TACS(Electromagnetic Transient Program/fransient Analysis of Control Systems) switches. The back flashover inducing current was increased from 50 kA to 88 kA by the installation of surge arresters on the transmission line which has one ground wire and 20 ohms of tower footing resistances. The great advantage of surge arrester installation on one circuit of the double circuit transmission line is to prevent the simultaneous back flashover up to 190 kA.
