One of key parameters on lightning protection system design of electric, information and communication system is grounding impedance. Earth impedance includes numerous information about earthing performance of grounding system. This paper suggests grounding impedance measuring device which is comprised of wideband current source, voltage and current measuring components. We used IQ Demodulation to measure more accurate phase difference of voltage and current. The range of frequency is up to 1 MHz that is IEEE defined as the range of lightning surge. We compared developed grounding impedance measuring device with existing one to test its performance, and we used grounding system while we implemented measurement and analysing by using fall of potential method IEEE Std.81 proposed.

ln this paper, it was reported the developed results of the monitoring unit for 72.5kY GIS which it is one part of the monitoring system for the substation that Korea Railway Company is promoting. In order to monitor the operational status of GIS, four parameters were chosen: the number of times of the circuit breaker switching, tightness of the gas-sealed units (circuit breaker / disconnecting switch / earthing switch), the number of times of the lightning arrestor operating and the leakage current of the lighting arrester. We constructed the monitoring system that can be judged the operating condition of the GIS from the signal of the suitable sensor for the purpose. Therefore, it is possible to on line monitoring for the condition of the GlS without efforts of the Periodic inspection.

With the increasing popularity of renewable generation systems and the advancement of power electronics, DC distribution systems have recently received considerable research attention. DC distribution has numerous advantages, including reliability, power quality, and efficiency. Owing to these advantages, DC distribution has been applied to data centers and power quality-sensitive electronic load conditions. Because grounding electrodes in DC are much more susceptible to corrosion than in AC, the IT system defined in IEC Standard 60364 may be a good candidate for an earthing method for DC distribution systems. In addition, IEC Standard 61557 specifies the requirements for insulation monitoring devices (IMD) for protection of the IT system, which continuously monitors the insulation resistances between the power lines and the earth. This paper discusses the development and evaluation of IMD to promote the reliability of distribution systems and increase safety of humans and facilities.

접지의 목적은 기기의 안정과 인체의 안전을 도모하는데 있다. 그동안 국내 접지공사 시행에 관한 문제점은 기술적인 근거가 없이 단순히 접지 점의 접지저항 값을 낮추는 것에만 집중하였다. 그러나 단순히 전선을 땅에 묻는다는 과거의 인식에서 벗어나, 현재는 전력기술인의 접지에 대한 인식의 변화를 요구하며, 개방화 시대에 맞추어 International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 규격의 접지계통 방식에 대한 이해와 관심을 갖아야한다. 또한 이러한 IEC 규격의 접지설비방식이 국내에 적용될 시점이며, 기술적인 검토를 통해 운영상에 일어날 수 있는 다양한 사고에 대한 영향력에 대해 검토해 볼 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 접지 계통방식은 IEC 국제규격에서 제시하는, 단락 시간과 허용 접촉전압이나 기기의 절연수준과 관련해 제시하는 값에 의해 분류되며 고압 측 단락사고 시 수용가 부하 측에 미치는 영향에 관해 살펴보기 위해 고압 측 1선 지락사고와 3상 단락사고에 대해 모의하기로 한다.

This paper deals with analysis of complex grounding system using electromagnetic simulation method. Electrical devices could be damaged by transient voltage such as a lightning surge. Therefore the measures to protect the equipments from transient, such as a lightning are required. The ground system is important in this respect. The representative parameter of grounding system performance is earth ground resistance. Precise prediction of earth resistance is required, because it is difficult to modify and change after the completion of the grounding system construction. Numerical modeling is often used in numerical analysis to identify the electrical characteristics of the grounding system. However complex systems are difficult to predict grounding characteristics by numerical analysis. If the total electric field of the earth in general is similar to the antenna model, in that the incident electric field and expressed as a sum of the scattering field. In this study, the electromagnetic field simulation tool "ANSYS HFSS" module containing the antenna model was used to analyze performance of ground system. Both the simple and complex grounding system were analyzed by simulation tool and experimental method. As a result simulation method is effective to predict performance of a complex ground system.

This paper proposes the effective method to improve the protection from induced lightning Surge by making common grounding from individual grounding. Common grounding under equipotential principle is more effective than individual grounding for lightning Surge protection, and so common grounding is indicated as international technical standard under the AC power supply system with neutral line. So, this paper is to propose the effective way of induced lightning Surge protection method for currently installed power supply system which has no neutral grounded line and individual grounding which are weak for lightning Surge protection. This proposal can improve the power supply system as has neutral line, and improve the grounding system to common grounding system. And also this paper proposes to make effective equipotential system with voltage variable shunting devices for lightning Surge protection.

초전도전력기기 실계통 적용 시범사업이 정부지원으로 한국전력이 주관하고 제작업체가 참여하는 방법으로 이천변전소에서 진행되고 있다. 이천변전소는 무인변전소로 구내에는 전자제어 및 계전기 등 전기적 잡음에 민감한 설비의 설치가 증가하고 있다. 따라서 개폐장치의 스위칭 동작, 뇌격의 침입, 기존 GIS대신 친환경 고체 절연 개폐장치(SIS)의 사용으로 변전설비 보호를 위한 접지설계가 중요하며, 고체절연개폐장치(SIS)의 상도체와 외함사이에 유도결합에 의해 발생하는 이상전압 등 변전소 구내외에서 발생하는 써지의 접지망 유입에 의한 접지도체의 전위상승이나 유도전압에 대한 대책이 필요하고, 특히 초전도 전력기기의 안정적인 운영을 위한 기술적인 접지망 분석 및 설계가 요구되고 있다.
