This study provides review and improvement plans for the possible problems caused when the CV cable is used as a positive feeder line which supplies power from the DC HSCB (high-speed circuit breaker) to the catenariesin Seoul Metro which is using direct-current feeder method. In detail, this study contributes to stabilizing the power line by triggering a protective device by instantly detecting potential rise which happens when grounding fault occurs in non-grounding type CV cable shield.

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 $40^{\circ}C-10^{\circ}C$.

Cyclic aging for 14 days is performed to remove a large amount of the volatiles found in freshly manufactured cable. In this paper, we examined lightning impulse characteristics of 22.9 kV CV power cable before and after cyclic aging for 14days. As the result, the breakdown voltage after aging under normal temperature was lower than that before aging, and the breakdown voltage after aging under hot temperature was lower than that before aging. We found that the dispersion of lightning impulse breakdown voltage before 14 cyclic aging test were reduced rather than those after 14 cyclic aging test.

In this paper, we studied on life-decision of underground cable of live-line state. Data of CV 6.6kV and 22kV cable's life is got data measured insulation resistance by D.C. overlapped current. We confirmed that D.C resistance reduced by time. Aging of cable could be occurred by electrical, thermal, mechanical stress and complex aging confirmed that proceeded by Weibull plot. In the result, life of 6.6kV cable remained 21 years till light caution and 35 years till heavy caution, so aging of 6.6kV XLPE cable was not occurred. Life of 22kV cable remained 10 years till light caution and 22 years till heavy caution. We confirmed that the designed life of 22kV cable is similar to the measured life.

The demand for electric power is increasing every year in Korea. All the systems adopted at power stations in order to generate and transmit electric power should operate in perfect condition or reliability. The device for transmitting the generated high-voltage electric power is 6 kV CV single core cables. The manufacturing companies of the cables makes an official announcement that the operating lifetime of their cables is about 30years. But from the moment of operation the deterioration precesses of worsening the characteristics of cables starts. Since the reliability for the status of installed cables in deterioration has not been diagnosed, the cables can be broken at any unexpected moments. In order to prevent the abrupt cable accident by systematically monitoring the cable status, we have invented the first device in Korea. We have installed our device at Korea Western Power Co. Ltd. in order to diagnose the live cables. In this paper, we present our research results of measured temperatures of inner conductor and surface and the compared results of those data with other cable company. We also show that our results agree with those made by other company.

High voltage CV cables have been widely installed underground due to their convenience and urban aesthetics. However, cable accidents have occurred frequently owing to poor construction and natural degradations. This paper proposes the method to measure the multi parameter measurement for optimum diagnostics of high voltage cable connection parts and verifies its technical usefulness. This measurement is intended to diagnose degradations of cable connection parts by using simultaneous vibration and thermography as well as partial discharge(PD). The experiment in a shielded laboratory was carried out to verify the usefulness of the multi parameter measurement. The experiment defined the degradation of the cable connection part as 12 types, and produced each degradation sample. As a result of experiment, it was possible to check the correlation of vibration signals with regard to progress in some defects. In the case of thermography, the coherence with regard to the progress of some defects was found. We figure that the proposed method would be useful also in the noise environment.

At present the XLPE insulated power Cables have installed until 154KV level in KOREA. Therefore, our company has developed 275KV XLPE cable as a means 345KV level-up of CV cable as well as exploitation of overseas markets. In this paper, the outline of design standards, manufacturing processes and test performance of 275KV CV cable are described.

In this paper, we studied the diagnostic method of insulation deterioration for 22.9kV CNCV cable using D.C potential decay component. At first, arbitrary D.C high voltage is appeied the CNCV cable for two minutes and switched off in vacuum. And then D.C potential decay components is measured for ten minutes. It is detecting source for cable insulation deterioration that its gradient is. Provisionally, we decided the criterion voltage and select the high voltage meter and S.W.

Recently, use of High Voltage cables with extruded insualtion is increasing. Generally this polymeric insuation contains residual stresses. The effect of internal residual stresses is the so-called shrink-back of the insulation. If not controlled, these stresses may lead to problems during installation and service of the cables. Therefore in this paper, the definition and cause of shrinkage are described and furthermore the influence due to shrink-back at cable joint-box.

The usual way used by electric power stations to deliver high levels of generated power is via 6.6kV XLPE (or CV) cables. Depending on the manufacturing technique, installation environment, and usage conditions, the deterioration processes of the power cables start from the instant of operation. Cable junctions may break down in three years from the start of operation due to the manufacturing or construction defects. Otherwise they should be in good working order for 20-30 years. When the cable system (the cable itself and cable junctions combined) deteriorates, fire accidents happen due to the dielectric breakdowns. We have invented a device to monitor the deteriorating status of cables at Korean Western Power Co. Ltd. located in Taean, Chungcheongnam-do province. In this paper, we introduce the device hardware. Using the device, we have measured the insulation resistance and humidity in the sheath of the cables. We present, in analysed results, the effect of humidity on insulation resistance in cable sheaths.
