In this paper, a new algorithm of optimal voltage control is proposed for the Distribution Automation System (DAS) based on constants of four terminal network modeling. In the proposed method, the voltage profiles along feeders are estimated from the measurement of the current and power factor by a Feeder Remote Terminal Unit (FRTU) installed at each node. Whenever the voltage profile violates the restriction, the voltage control strategy is applied to keep the voltage levels along the feeders within the pre-specified range through the modification and coordination of the transformer under-load tap changers (ULTC), step voltage regulator (SVR), as well as shunt condenser. In the case studies, the estimation and control of the voltages have been testified in a radial distribution system with 11 nodes.

KEPRI, the research institute for KEPCO, has started developing a DAS using wireless communication networks since 1999. The wireless networks adopted Radio Link Protocol (RLP) of Personal Communication Service (PCS) as communication protocol. It is the first time that PCS is applied to data networks for DAS. The communication protocol, RLP, makes the DAS networks simple and economically affordable when they are installed at widely dispersed small cities. But, RLP has problem when it send unsolicited message. This paper describes the implementing method of a wireless network using RLP and TCP/IP Network to cope with unsolicited message problem.

This paper proposes a new fault restoration method which adopts the recloser as top agent to release the problems of the data concentration and fault processing delay of the existing DAS(distribution Automation System) under the ubiquitous distribution system. In proposed method, top agent collects the data based on the multi-casting communication with the tie switches of the interconnection point, and then selects a closed switch(tie switch) to transfer the sound outage load to other feeders based on the heuristic search strategy step by step until the load transfer work is finished. Here, a new heuristic rule is developed which can guarantee the relational load balancing and line loss from the collected voltage data. Finally, the several faults are simulated for typical multi-section and multi-interconnection distribution system to prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, in particular, for each simulation cases, the load balancing index and line loss index of the obtained solution from the proposed method is compared with those of all of feasible solutions.

A single line diagram is a graphic user interface to represent electrical connectivity between power equipments in distribution automation systems. This paper proposes a new single line auto-drawing technique based on the service oriented architecture. Web service, CIM(Common Information Model) and SVG(Scalable Vector Graphics) are adopted to implement SOA concept. A web service demo system was established which is configured with the service provider, consumer and broker to verify the feasibility of this study.

배전자동화시스템(DAS:Distribution Automation System)과 변전자동화시스템(SCADA:Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition)은 전력계통을 컴퓨터와 통신기술을 이용하여 운용하는 주된 시스템으로, 현재 독립적으로 운영됨으로 인해 신속하게 처리되어야 하는 고장처리 및 활선작업처리가 지연되는 등의 문제점이 제기되어왔고, 이에 따라 DAS-SCADA 연계 연구가 요구되었다. 연계방법으로 직접연계, 웹연계, DAS 기능부 전력량계를 이용한 연계가 2005년 11월부터 2007년 12월까지 한전 사업소에서 시범 운영되었고, 그 결과 투자비용 면에서 직접연계방법이 웹연계 방법에 비해 약 1.3배 높지만 다양한 변전소 운전정보 전달의 신속성, 제어기능 우수 등의 타당성이 입증됨으로써 직접연계방법에 의한 DAS-SCADA 연계가 2010년까지 한전 사업소에 전국적으로 확대 적용될 계획이다. 시범 운영시 제기된 문제점을 개선하기 위해 변전소 개체별 통신 방법을 이용한 데이터 연계방안으로 개선하여 연계DB 자동구축 기능 및 연계시스템 진단/Log 기능을 개발하였다. 연계데이터 포인트와 통신데이터 종류를 정의하고, SCADA HMI 프로그램을 개발하여 변전소 단선도 자동생성 기능, 변전소 단선도 수동편집 기능, SCADA 감시 제어기능 및 이력관리 기능을 개발하였다. DAS-SCADA 연계시 정전건당 평균시간을 약 33% 단축하여 전력공급 신뢰도를 향상하고, 배전 계통운영센터와 변전소간 활선작업 처리절차 축소로 전력계통 효율적 운영에 기여하고, 나아가 고장시 부하절체 자동처리로 완전한 배전자동화 실현 및 해외 수출화 사업에도 크게 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

The DAS(Distribution Atomization System) determines a faulted section by using a FI(Fault Indicator) when the fault is occurred on the distribution networks. Sometimes FI is malfunction when the ground fault is occurred on a the distribution networks. As a result difficulties to make decision of faulted section. The cause of the FI malfunction is that the determination using the limited information of the installed area. In this study, a method is proposed to determine faulted section using the amount of the fault current instead of using the FI. This method is determinated faulted section using the fuzzy inference for the collected information from the all switches. The usefulness of the proposed algorithm is verified through the simulation test using PSCAD/EMTDC.

F.I(Fault Indicator) is equipped in automatic switchs for Distibution Automation System(DAS), and plays important role of providing the information for picking out a fault section. The restrictive sentence that F.I doesn't react for the inrush current is in the F.I specification. Nevertheless F.I has sometimes mal-functioned on the DAS in Kang-Dong branch office of KEPCO for latest 2 years. This Paper Proved the causes of the mal-function, and proposed the new F.I specification and operation methods against the mal-function causes.

Recently, standard of living improved and Information-Communication industry developed rapidly. Thereby, interest about electric power quality is rising worldwide. So, research and Development to enhance electric power quality in various viewpoint until most suitable supply system from each kind device to improve electric power quality. And specially, interest about voltage quality is rising by diffusion increase of information communication appliance and minuteness control appliance etc. Also Power consumption is increasing, but expansion of large size generator by environmental and site security problem is difficult. So, introduction of distribution generation is investigated actively by electric-power industry reorganization. Voltage management of power system had been controlled by ULTC (Under Load Tap Changer) in substation and pole transformer on the high voltage distribution line. But, voltage control device on substation and distribution line is applied each other separatively. Therefore, efficiency of line voltage control equipment is dropping. Also, research about introduction upper limit of distribution generation is consisting continuously. This paper presents cooperation use way between voltage control device and introduction upper limit of distribution generation for most suitable voltage control in distribution power system.

In this paper, a new algorithm of optimal Volt/Var Control is proposed using Volt/Var control for the Distribution Automation System (DAS) with Distributed Generation (DG) based on the modeling of the distributed load and the distributed current. In the proposed, algorithm based on the modeling of the distributed load and the distributed current are estimated from constants of four terminals using the measurement of the current and power factor from a Feeder Remote Terminal Unit (FRTU) and DG data from RTU for DG. For the optimal Volt/Var Control, the gradient method is applied to find optimal solution for tap, capacity and power control of OLTC (On-Load Tap Changers), SVR (Step Voltage Regulator), PC (Power Condenser) and DG (Distributed Generation). In the case studies, the estimation and control of the voltages have been testified in a radial distribution system with DG using matlab program.
