A new type of fiber-reinforced polymeric materials for the main body and the arc chamber of the low-voltage circuit breakers was developed. The tensile and the flectional strength of the three kinds of thermoplastic resins for the cover of MCCBs(Molded case circuit breakers) increase much higher than those made of BMC that has been used. In a high current-breaking test, an experimental MCCB with the new insulating material showed no-cracks on the bodies.

교류 철도차량에 사용되는 주회로차단기 (Main Circuit Breaker)는 전차선 전원을 차량 내 투입 또는 차단하는 기능을 한다. 일반적으로 주회로차단기는 판토그라프와 주변압기 사이에 위치하며, 주회로차단기의 동작시점에 따라 차량에 투입되는 전원의 위상이 변화하게 된다. 투입전원의 위상에 따라 차량 내 돌입전류, 서지전압 등의 형태로 차량 전기장치 내 의도하지 않은 과도현상이 야기될 수 있으므로, 주회로차단기의 동작은 전차선 전원의 위상각에 따라 능동적으로 제어되어야 한다. 하지만 주회로차단기는 동작신호 인가 이후, 실제 개폐 동작 시까지 일정하지 않은 동작지연시간이 존재한다. 따라서 동작 지연시간을 예측하고, 이를 고려하여 주회로차단기를 개폐시점을 제어하는 지능형 제어기가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 주회로차단기의 투입전원 위상 제어를 위하여 동작 메카니즘 및 동작 지연요소를 분석하였다. 그리고 차단기 및 구성품 별 반복동작시험을 통하여 동작 지연시간을 분석하고, 이를 예측하기 위한 이동평균 (Moving Average) 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 또한 지능형 제어기 개발 및 제작을 통하여 제안된 알고리즘을 구현하였으며, 주회로차단기와의 연동시험을 통하여 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하였다.

Nowadays, one of the serious problems in KEPCO system is the larger fault current than the SCC(Short Circuit Capacity) of circuit breaker. There are many alternatives to reduce the increased fault current such as isolations of bus ties, enhancement of SCC of circuit breaker, applications of HVDC-BTB(Back to Back) and FCL(fault current limiter). However, these alternatives have some drawbacks in viewpoints of system stability and cost. As the superconductivity technology has been developed, the HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductor-Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. Under this background, this paper presents the EMTDC model for resistive type HTS-FCL considering the nonlinear characteristic of final resistance value when quenching Phenomena occur.

As the superconductivity technology has been developed, the resistance type HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductor Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the most attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. To evaluate the accurate transient performance of resistance type HTS-FCL, it is needed that the dynamic simulation model considering transient characteristics during quenching and recovery state. Under this background, this paper presents the EMTDC model for resistance type HTS-FCL considering the nonlinear characteristic of final resistance value when quenching and recovery phenomena by fault current injection and clearing occurs.

사회발전과 더불어 가전기기의 발전은 누전으로 인한 감전, 화재 등 여러 가지 누전전류의 위험성에 노출되어 있다. 가정 내 배전함에 누전차단기가 설치되어 있지만, 기존의 누전차단기는 배전함에 설치되어 누전시 전원을 차단해주는 기능만을 갖는다. 또한 집안 벽마다 설치된 콘센트에 연결된 가전기기들을 개별적으로 점검하는 일은 쉬운 일이 아니다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 누전차단기회로의 성능 및 회로를 분석하고, ZigBee기반의 센서를 이용하여 가정 내 가전기기들의 누전상태를 모니터링 할 수 있는 방법에 대해 제시하였다. 성능분석 결과, 제안된 ELB 누전전류 제어시스템은 가전기기에 내장된 누전차단기 회로를 응용했기 때문에 각각의 가전기기들의 누전상태를 확인할 수 있어 기존 시스템 보다 누전을 쉽고 편리하게 모니터링 할 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.

The conventional Residual Current Protective Devices(RCD, or earth leakage circuit breaker, ELB) operates depending on the total leakage current which is the vector-sum of resistive and capacitive components of a leakage current. However, the electric disaster such as electric shock or fire is mainly caused by the resistive component. Therefore, in this view point, the RCD is more realistic when it operates by the resistive component of the leakage current. In this paper, a new algorithm for measuring the resistive leakage current from the total leakage current is suggested, and is realized to an actual circuit. According to the suggested algorithm, the resistive component of the leakage current can be found by integrating the total leakage current over only a half cycle of the line voltage, and it is realized by using analog switches and resettable integrators. It is confirmed through experiments that the suggested algorithm detects, within maximum average error of 6.74%, the resistive leakage current from the total leakage current, and the RCD employing the suggested algorithm brakes the circuit within the regular interrupt time(30msec).

In this study, we build system and techniques of evaluating the interruption performance of the GCB with experimental method. We constructed a simplified synthetic test circuit of which ability is up to 245kV, 50kA BTF test. And We composed a model test circuit breaker with puffer assisted self blasting type GCB. With this circuit breaker, we carried out the experiment of no load and SLF90. During the tests, we measured the several factors such as stroke, pressure, arc temperature, the voltage and current near the current zero and dI/dt, dV/dt. Arc conductivity before 200ns before current zero which is one of the indexes of the thermal recovery of a GCB was measured. With these kinds of measurement, we could estimate the performance of a GCB fundamentally. Futhermore these results were used to adjust the arc modeling with CFD(computational fluid dynamics) and we could increase the plausibility of the analytical method.

As the load density of KEOCO system is higher, the fault current can be much higher than SCC(Short Circuit Capacity) of circuit breaker. Fault current exceeding the rating of circuit breaker is a very serious problem in high density load area, which can threaten the stability of whole power system. Even though there are several alternatives to reduce fault current, as the superconductivity technology has been developed, the HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductivity Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. This study presents the application of 154kV HTS-FCL in Korean power system.
