The addition of disconnect switches to a distribution feeder or the replacement of the manual switches with the automatic switches do, in general, increase reliability by decreasing the duration of the outage of many to the customers on the feeder and reducing the outage section. However, the improvement of reliability in power distribution system causes an increase of the investment cost, for example, replacement costs, labor costs, and so on. For this reason - the balance between investment and reliability improvement - many studies about the appropriate level of investment have been conducted. In this paper, we suggest the algorithm for determining the reasonable switch automation rate in the power distribution system. We evaluate the customer interruption cost and reliability for several cases - these cases relate with the switch automation rate - in the domestic metropolitan power distribution system, estimate the effectiveness of changing the manual switch to automatic switch quantitatively. These results can help the determining on the disconnect switch's automation rate.

In this paper every constituent general design are preceded and interface between each component are examined. And also DCSWGR operation logic with logical diagram including interlock signal are introduced.

Micro-grid is connected to the main power grid through a static switch. One of the critical issues in micro-grids is protection which must disconnect the micro-grid from the network in short-circuit contingencies. Protective methods of micro-grid mainly follow the model of distribution system protection. This protection scheme suffers from improper operation due to the presence of single-phase loads, imbalance of three-phase loads and occurrence of power swings in micro-grid. In this paper, a new method which prevents from improper performance of static micro-grid protection is proposed. This method works based on artificial neural network (ANN) and able to differentiate short circuit from power swings by measuring impedance and the rate of impedance variations in PCC bus. This new technique provides a protective system with higher reliability.

Power system is analyzed by three methods of load flow, fault calculation, and voltage stability. Among there, load flow is calculated to flow of power in power in system at steady state. But, load flow is difficult to analyze to flow of power in substation, because power flow frequently alter by various equipments such as circuit bleaker, disconnect switch and shunt reactor. Particular, in 765[㎸] system, because of form of 1.5GB for stable operation, structure of substation has been very complex. In this paper, we describe technique for application of load flow algorithm in simulator for 765[㎸] substation. For this technique, we built each database for various equipments and considered form of 1.5GB Data as form of bus and line, for application of load flow, are acquired from built database, and then calculate load flow in substation. And. results of load flow are outputted in screen of operator console program.

In this thesis I analyzed that V5.2 protocol function is effective to fulfill all of the services that are provided at the existing local exchange. I analyzed this in five methods that refer to ETSI inside patronage. I experimented turnaround time by Start-up method and verified V5.2 protocol function when Start-up. Also I confirmed stability of system by the reconstruction-ability experiment related E1 switch over. I verified V5.2 protocol function through PSTN call process that uses a special service test and local call simulator. As a result of experiment, I confirmed the best method when simultaneous Start-up. V5.2 protocol function was excellent and It becomes switch over at 1/1000 seconds when E1 is out of service. V5.2 protocol function was effective to fulfill all of the special services that are provided at local exchange and its long call process ability was superior to KT standard with 4 fails in 20000 calls. Through the experiment, it was proved that V5.2 interface will become a significant element of communication network when after LE side expanse of v5 interface ID with TDX-100 exchanger and the AN occurrences OOS by message transmission limit and call disconnect when E1 switch over are improved.

The PMU (Payload Management Unit) in MSC (Multi-Spectral Camera) is the main subsystem for the management, control and power supply of the MSC payload operation. The PMU shall handle the communication with the BUS (Spacecraft) OBC (On Board Computer) for the command, the telemetry and the communications with the various MSC units. The PMU will perform that distributes power to the various MSC units, collects the telemetry reports from MSC units, performs thermal control of the EOS (Electro-Optical Subsystem), performs the NUC (Non-Uniformity Correction) function of the raw imagery data, and rearranges the pixel data and output it to the DCSU (Data Compression and Storage Unit). The BUS provides high voltage to the MSC. The PMU is connected to primary and redundant BUS power and distributes the high unregulated primary voltages for all MSC sub-units. The PSM (Power Supply Module) is an assembly in the PMU implements the interface between several channels on the input. The bus switches are used to prevent a single point system failure. Such a failure could need the PSS (Power Supply System) requirement to combine the two PSM boards' bus outputs in a wired-OR configuration. In such a configuration if one of the boards' output gets shorted to ground then the entire bus could fail thereby causing the entire MSC to fail. To prevent such a short from pulling down the system, the switch could be opened and disconnect the short from the bus. This switch operation is controlled by the BUS.

In this Study, the insulation safety for Closing Resistor and Disconnect Switch(DS) of 362kV GIS was estimated through 3 dimensional electric field analysis. In addition, the basic study to secure the electric insulation design technique was carried out through the research on the effect of a metallic particle which is generated in the GIS. As a result of 3 dimensional electric field analysis, it was found that the insulation capability of Closing Resistor and DS of 362kV GIS is stable electrically. Also, the fundamental data to improve the insulation capability of spacer was obtained by analyzing the maximum electric field according to the attached angle of a metallic particle which is attached on the surface of a spacer.

Purpose: Signs that are installed at unnoticeable places or that disconnect before the destination can bring errors of location information delivery. Therefore, this study aims to find out the spatial relation between structure of space and signs in the perspective of visual exposure possibility, operating arrangement and assesment by applying spatial structure theory. Methods: Effectiveness of organization of guidance signs was evaluated after the four way-finding factors(Plan Configuration, Sign System, Perceptual Access, Architectural Difference) that G.D.Weisman suggested were interpreted by spatial structure theory(J-Graph analysis, Space Syntax, Visual Graph Analysis) under the premise that it is closely related to the structure of space. Results: 1) Because the south corridor that connects each department of outpatient division is located in the hierarchy center of the space, and walking density is expected to be high, guidance signs need to be organized at the place with high integration value. 2) The depth to the destination space can be estimated through J-Graph analysis. The depth means a switch of direction, and the guidance signs are needed according to the number. 3) According to visibility graph analysis, visual exposure can be different in the same hierarchy unit space according to the shape of the flat surface. Based on these data, location adjustment of signs is possible, and the improvement effect can be estimated quantitatively. Implications: Spatial structure theory can be utilized to design and evaluate sign systems, and it helps to clearly understand the improvement effect. It is desirable to specify design and estimation of sign systems in the order of J-Graph analysis${\rightarrow}$Space Syntax Theory${\rightarrow}$visibility graph analysis.
