In this study, a ubiquitous sensor for condition monitoring of insulators and lightning arresters installed in power distribution lines and electric traction vehicles is presented. The sensor consists of two parts; a leakage current measurement and a lightning surge detection. Measured data are transmitted to a supervisory computer through ZigBee protocol based on IEEE 802.15.4. To detect leakage current, a window type Mn-ZCT is used and a low-noise amplifier with a gain of 60dB is designed, and this can measure leakage current in ranges of $100{\mu}A{\sim}5mA$. A sample-hold (S/H) and a Rogowski coil are injected to analyze the magnitude of surge current in ranges from 100A to 10kA with $8/20{\mu}s$-waveform.

Overhead transmission lines are mainly crossing mountainous area. They are easily affected in weathers like typhoon, strong wind, lightning, heavy rain, or heavy snow. Sometimes these weathers cause transmission line faults. A lightning flashover is most often fault. Nowadays lightning density in KOREA is growing high and lightning flashovers occur more often. A lightning flashover on transmission line is mostly cleared by momentary operation of a circuit breaker, so power failure happens rarely. However, when both circuits trip simultaneously due to the lightning flashovers on double circuit transmission line, short time power failure and voltage drop happen. KEPCO has used transmission line arresters to avoid double circuit simultaneous trip out since 2003. And transmission line arresters cannot be installed with KEPCO's present metal fittings, so various fittings have been used for each transmission line arrester manufacturer. This paper introduces development and standardization of arc-horn and metal fittings for transmission line arrester which can be used for both existing lines and new lines in KEPCO.

The main objective of this paper is to module design and pressure relief test a new type of polymer gapless surge arrester for power distribution line. Metal oxide surge arrester for most electric power system applications, power distribution line and electric train are now being used extensively to protect overvoltage due to lightning. 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. When breakdown of gapless elements in a surge arrester occurs due to flashover, fault short current flows through the arrester and internal pressure of the arrester rises. The pressure rise can usually be limited by fitting a pressure relief diaphragm and transferring the arc from the inside to the outside of the housing. However, there is possibility of porcelain fragmentation caused by the thermal shock, pressure rise, etc. Non-fragmenting of the housing is the most desired way to prevent damage to other equipment. The pressure change which is occurred by flashover become discharge energy. This discharge energy raises to damage arrester housing and arrester housing is dispersed as small fragment. Therefore, the pressure relief design is requested to obstruct housing dispersion.

The effects of surge arresters for protection of transmission systems against direct lightning strokes have already been investigated using the digital simulation program EMTP. Distribution lines are spanned on a much large area as compared to transmission lines, and therefore, are more often susceptible to lightning strokes. This paper analyzes the overvoltages on underground cable system against direct lightning strokes to the overhead ground wire using the digital simulation. The effects of lightning protection methods, such as lowering the grounding resistance and installing the surge arrester, for preventing overvoltages on underground cable system caused by direct lightning strokes to the overhead ground wire is investigated. Several schemes have been proposed to protect underground cables. This paper summarizes the main results of a study aimed at analysis of lightning overvoltages in variety underground feeders protected by metal-oxide arresters. This study will provide insulation coordination methods for reasonable system design in 22.9kV underground cable system.

Arresters are deteriorated by overvoltages or impulse currents, and the resistive leakage current of arresters increases as the deterioration of the arrester progresses, showing an increase in the 3$^{rd}$ harmonic component of the leakage current. In this reason, arrester diagnostic techniques based on the 3$^{rd}$ harmonic leakage current as a reference parameter of deterioration are widely used. The technique, however, includes an error due to the harmonics of power system voltage. Therefore, the influence of the harmonics on arrester diagnostics should be considered. In this paper, we designed a PSpice ZnO arrester model to simulate the influence of the voltage harmonics described above. A pure sinusoidal voltage and its the 3r harmonic voltage were applied to the model, and the leakage current components were analyzed. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the peak value of resistive leakage current depends not only on the phase of the 3$^{rd}$ harmonic voltage but also on the magnitude of it. Consequently, the errors caused 1)y the harmonic voltage could be minimized by correcting the magnitude of leakage current upon analyzing the harmonics.cs.

This paper deals with a development of the high precise measuring device of resistive leakage current for the deterioration and diagnosis of ZnO arresters. The resistive leakage current increasing with time leads to a thermally unstable state that may even experience a disaster. So, the resistive leakage current can be used as an indicator to discriminate whether the ZnO arrester blocks is in good state or in bad. The resistive leakage current measuring system with an analysis program operated with micro-processor using the time delay addition method was designed and fabricated. The proposed measuring systems for the resistive leakage current can effectively be used to develop the techniques of forecasting the deterioration of ZnO arresters in electric power systems.⨀ᔌ?؀㔳㤮㈻Ԁ䭃䑎䷗ᜒं6〰Ԁ䭃䑎䴀

This paper describes the evaluation of long duration current impulse withstand characteristics of ZnO blocks for high voltage surge arresters. Four ZnO varistors were manufactured with the general ceramic production method and three abroad varistors were also prepared to be compared. All varistors exhibited high density, which was in the range of $5.42{\sim}5.49g/cm^3$. In the electrical properties, the reference voltage of all samples was in the range of 5.11~5.72kV and the residual voltage was in the range of 8.314~9.305kV. In the long duration current impulse withstand test, sample 2 and 3 failed at the 2nd and 4th shot of series impulse currents, respectively, but the rest survived 18 shots during the test. Before and after this test, the variation ratio of the residual voltage of samples survived were below 1.7%, which were in the acceptance range of 5%.

최근 대기환경규제의 강화로 화학공장에서 발생하는 폐가스를 소각 처리하는 경우가 증대되고 있다. 이러한 소각설비는 저장탱크 상부와 배관을 통해 연결되어 화염을 통하여 폐가스를 연소 소각시키기 때문에, 배관을 따라 화염이 역화될 경우에는 치명적인 사고로 연결될 수 있다. 본 연구는 아크릴산 제조공정의 소각시스템에서 발생한 중대산업사고에 대해 폭발의 3요소와 화염의 전파 원인을 분석하여 사고 예방대책 및 안전성 향상 방안을 다음과 같이 제시하였다. 첫째, 소각시스템의 송풍기를 재 가동하기 전에는 공기 또는 불활성 가스로 충분히 희석하여 폭발을 예방하여야 한다. 둘째, 폭굉으로 전이된 화염이 저장탱크로 전파되지 않도록 소각설비의 전단 및 저장탱크 상부에 폭굉용 화염방지기를 설치하는 것이 필요하다. 섯째, 폭연용 화염방지기를 그대로 사용할 경우에는 그 전단에 파열판을 설치하거나 저장탱크 상부와 소각설비의 배관을 후드식으로 연결하여 폭굉으로 전이된 화염을 저장탱크 밖으로 분출시켜야 한다. 마지막으로, 소각설비에 연결된 송풍기의 제어반(MCC)에 순간정전 보상장치인 시간지연계전기(TDR: time delay relay)등을 설치하여 순간정전 후에도 자동으로 재가동될 수 있도록 조치해야 한다.

It has been reported that more than 50% of breakdown in transmission line for 154kV and above is due to lightning stroke. The flashover failure due to lightning stroke causes outage, voltage drop and instantaneous outage, Therefore line arrestors have been used in transmission line for protection from lightning stroke. In this paper, we describes electrical characteristics and performance test of line arrestor for transmission line.
