Because of the continuous increasing of energy consumption, metallic pipelines are widely used to supply services to customers such as gas, oil, water, etc. Most common metallic pipelines are underground and are now frequently being installed in nearby electric power lines. In recent years, buried gas pipeline close to power lines can be subjected to hazardous induction effects, especially during single line to ground faults. because it can cause corrosion and it poses a threat to the safety of workers responsible for maintenance. Accordingly, it is necessary to take into consideration for analysis of induced voltage on gas pipelines in transmission lines. This paper analyzed the induced voltage on the gas pipelines due to the 154kV transmission lines in normal case and in different faulty case conditions using EMTP (Electro-Magnetic Transients Program).

In this paper, the Time-varying Failure Rate (TFR) of power distribution system equipment is extracted from the recorded failure data of Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO). For TFR extraction, it is used that the fault data accumulated by KEPCO during 10 years. The TFR is approximated to bathtub curve using the exponential (random failure) and Weibull (aging failure) distribution function. In addition, Kaplan-Meier estimation is applied to TFR extraction because of incomplete failure data of KEPCO. Finally, Probability plot and regression analysis is applied. It is presented that the extracted TFR is more effective and useful than Mean Failure Rate (MFR) through the comparison between TFR and MFR.

We have studied quench characteristics for current limiting elements of YBCO films in applied fields of 0 - 130 mT. The films were deposited on sapphire substrates and covered by gold top layer. The current limiting element consists of 2 mm wide YBCO stripes connected in series. The electric field - current density (E-J) measurements showed that the presence of applied magnetic fields induces uniform quench distribution for the stripes, otherwise non-uniform quenches were observed. We suggest that suppressing the critical current by increased fields due to fault current effectively forced the stripes of higher Jc(0) to quench, resulting in equalizing quench times.

Arc is very serious problem in different electric fields because arc is the cause of electrical fire. In the power electronics, arc give a bad impact in power quality and reliability Therefore, in order to effectively prevent the possible damages of arc fault, this paper studies arc characteristic in power electronic system.

This paper introduce the real time digital simulator which is located in Korea Electric Power Research Institute. This paper also describes the methodology for the performance test of the PSS using KEPS. This test is to get a high degree of the confidence of the developed PSS before it is installed into the real power system. This has been performed in the form of closed-loop tests in which Simulator and PSS are connected and signals come and back interactively. Many tests have successfully done using KEPS which consists of 26 RTDS racks, under the large-scale power system. The simulated reduced KEPCO power system contains 88 generators and 295 buses. Through the AVR step, three phase fault and active power variation test, the effectiveness of developed PSS has been proved. This paper also presents the overview of KEPS and hardware of protype PSS.

In order to use HTS tape on electric power applications, such as cable, motor, transformer, fault current limiter, a long length of HTS tape with a good uniformity of critical current is inevitable. The longer length of HTS tape, the wider in the range of application and the lower cost of HTS tape. In this study three long length Bi-2223/Ag tapes(268m, 253m and 187m) were fabricated. Critical current uniformity along the length was greatly improved through the optimization of cold deformation and thermo-mechanical process. Average critical current of the tapes was 63.2 A, 54.6 A and 64.2 A, respectively Critical tensile strength and critical bending radius (77 K, 5 % Ic degradation) was 135 MPa and 56 m, respectively.

In this paper, we consider a digital protection IED(Intelligent Electric Device) for a distributed power system. The IED can measure various elements for protection and communicate with another devices through network. The protection IED is composed of specific function modules: signal process module which converts analog signal from PT and CT handle algorithm to digital one; communication module for connection with another IEDs; input/output module for user-interfaces. A general purpose DSP board with TMS320C2812 is used in the IED. In order to verify the proposed IED, experimental researches with the power system simulator DOBLE has been carried out for a phase earth fault. The results show an under-voltage relaying algorithm has been realized sucessfully in the hardware system.

If rotating machinery have a fault, we can detect it using vibration or noise signals. However some maintenance engineers who doesn't have expert knowledge, needs the help of vibration experts for diagnosing rotating machinery. But qualified experts are rare, therefore we have been developed the case based reasoning (CBR) system which is able to manipulate the past experiences of vibration diagnosis experts. In the CBR system, the maintenance engineers can retrieve too information from previous cases which are most similar to new problem and they can solve new problem using solutions from the previous cases. In this paper, we propose a new method which is the case retrieval of CBR system using Petri net and we also applied it to diagnosis for electric motors as a practical problem.

The calculation of short-circuit currents is important for power systems operation and restoration, and for determining the means to protect human lives and properties. In this paper, a part of a power system network, around the D$\breve{e}$tmarovice power station in Czech Republic, was simulated by the well known program EMTP-ATPDraw (Electromagnetic Transients Program-Alternative Transient Program), and short-circuit currents and voltages were calculated at different points in the electric network and presented as a time function by the PlotXY program. Calculations were done just for phase-to-ground, and for the three-phase short-circuit at the Kun$\check{c}$ice substation. The results were important for determining the characteristics of the equipment required to withstand or break the short-circuit current; for this reason, the calculations were repeated using earth-fault resistances only for the case of busbar KUN shown in Figs. 5 and 6.
