KEPCO has been constructing the 765 kV double circuit transmission line since 1997. It is worried that the 765 kV transmission lines make TV interference(Ghost and Blocking) due to high tower and multi sub-conductors. This paper presents the mechanism, the measuring method and the results of TV ghost and blocking measurement using a new TV ghost measurement system in a vehicle which was developed by KEPRI.

This paper describes electrical environmental study of a 765kV double circuit test line. Corona performance on several candidate conductor bundles has been investigated in the corona cage (single phase simulation facility) since 1984. We have known that six RAIL conductor bundle is the most suitable for the 765kV transmission Line, [3] To investigate electrical environmental impact of the future commerciale line, we build a full sacle 765kV test line in 1993. The test results of Audible Noise, Radio Interference, TV Interference from August, 1993 to Jan. 1994 were measured as $48.7[dBA](L_{50})$. $57.4[dB{\mu}V/m]$(Fair weather, $L_{50})$. $14.5[dB${\mu}$V/m]$(Fair weather, $L_{50}$). We have found that the Audible Noise data were very close to the predicted(48.5 [dBA]) by BPA Corona and Field Effects Computer program, however, the RI and TVI data were much higher than predicted(42 [dBmV/m], $7.9[dB{\mu}V/m)$ by the BPA program. We have investigating the reason of the difference. In the constructing of full scale test line, we developed the tubular tower, 765kV test transformer and hardwares of 765kV transmission line insulator strings. Also we will investigate the effects of plants under the 765kV test Line.

The purpose of this study is to obtain optimum arrangement of phase conductors in minimizing magnetic field from overhead transmission lines. Data of the transmission lines rated 345 kV of the KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Company)'s system were used. For a three phase-double circuit transmission line, low-reactance arrangement is optimum in minimizing magnetic fields. For a three phase-four circuit, optimum phase arrangement is a-b-c-b-a-c(lower two circuits, clockwise)/b-c-a-c-a-b(upper two circuits, clockwise).

This paper presents the use of Line Surge Arresters on 154kV double circuit lines. The ouatge rate which is highly related to the tower footing resistance is showed during the last a few year. The general methods that have been adopted at lines also are introduced. Lightning performance of lines without and with line surge arrester is studied and compared. The characteristics between air-gap type and gapless type LSA also compared. Line surge arrester installation strategy is presented.

In our country most of transmission lines are double-circuit lines. In these lines, the combining method of increasing conductor height and installation of passive shield-loop to mitigate magnetic field near a transmission line, is a good and feasible method. The basic principle of passive shield loop is that the field from the current induced in the shield loop conductors counteracts the field from the phase conductors. This method applied to domestic transmission lines to meet the magnetic field level, 100, 30, 10 and 4 mG, respectively. In each magnetic field level, the minimum conductor height and passive loop height are presented for the implementation of the practical design.

This paper analyses current densities induced inside human body of lineman for 765kV transmission line when he wears a protective cloth or not. Applying the boundary element method, we calculate current densities induced in organs inside a worker in case he was located at 15[cm], 30[cm], 50[cm], and 100[cm] far from a prefabricated jumper. As results of study, we find a maximum current density induced in all organs may be higher than $10[mA/m^2]$ if he does not wear protective clothes. We also know high permeability materials can lower current density more than high conductivity materials.

This paper investigates a lightning multi-phase flashover on extra high voltage transmission line, which has influence on power systems very much, by the use of ATP. Especially we validated an arcing horn model represented by the nonlinear inductance and resistance which is the most important on the simulation for a multi-phase flashover. We also study relationships between lightning parameters and flashover phases in 765(㎸) double circuit transmission system.

KEPCO has built, for the first time in the world, 765㎸ double circuit transmission lines which use vertically arranged phase conductor, while 765㎸ transmission lines in other countries are single circuit lines and use horizontally arranged phase conductor. System operating voltage, switching overvoltage, and lightning overvoltage were considered in determining the air gap. Recently, however, lightning outage rate of some 765㎸ transmission lines in KOREA shows that it is more than what is expected. Lightning fault of 765㎸ transmission lines is mostly single phase grounding fault which can be reclosed. But it still needs to be carefully managed, for the bulk system like 765㎸ transmission lines have huge effects on whole power system. This paper introduces analysis and countermeasure of KEPCO's 765㎸ transmission line lightning outage.

This paper covers the insulation coordination of 765 KV transmission line in Korea Electric Power Corporation. The design for the lightning, switching surge, and contamination was conducted to increase the reliability of 765 KV line. The authors have used the result of a limited Westinghouse ANACOM swiching surge study of the Korea Electric Corporation's 765 KV Expansion plan. The study investigated the switching surge overvoltage distribution and maximum switching overvoltage when relosing 765 KV lines. They used the technical data of the suspension insulator for the contamination design, which was available from a foreign insulator manufacture. From this paper, the authors find out that the contamination design dominates to determine the number of insulator and the SOV design dominates the air clearance in the tower. Afterwards the authors will confirm this design by Demonstration Test with Korea Electro-technology Research Institute.
