As the electric system is getting larger to meet the increasing demand for electric power, the rating of power apparatus is becoming inevitably higher in its working voltage and larger in its capacity. According to KEPCO reports, power transformers in the KEPCO system have undergone troubles such as winding short insulation breakdowns every year since 1981. the cause of this troubles were high one line grounding fault currents in KEPCO systems that had direct grounding systems. KEPCO has installed the NGR(neutral grounding reactor) to lower this fault current and reduced winding short insulation breakdowns in power transformers. But when a circuit breaker opened a no load bus, some trips of circuit breakers for protecting transformer have occurred by mal-operation of 59GT(overvoltage ground relay) that detect disconnection of NGR. Therefore, in this paper, we analyzed the cause and examined the effect of time delav circuit to prevent wrong operation of 59GT.

The energy storage systems are being widely researched for the electric power. The operations running in a vacuum chamber mainly consists of a composite flywheel rotor, superconductor bearings, a motor/generator and its controller. Among composed the apparatus, the floating magnet bearing consists of the ring-type permanent magnets with epoxy resin impregnation for reinforcement and surface protection. In order to storage as much energy as possible, the flywheel is supposed to be rotated with very high speed. The magnetic field is analyzed by using the Maxwell 2D/3D for the simulations.

A new electric application method was developed to prepare epoxy/organoclay nanocomposite for the electrical insulation in the AC electric fields and it could be also used in the field of various viscous polymer/organoclay systems. The applied AC electric field condition was as follows; (1) inter-electrode distance: 40 mm, (2) application voltage: 3-11 kV, (3) frequency: 60~1,000 Hz, and (4) application time: 0~60 min. To characterize the epoxy/clay nanocomposite, WAXS and TEM analyses were confirmed. In order to explain how the organic modifier affects the exfoliation phenomena, a mechanism of the oscillating collision of the quaternary ammonium head was proposed and the effects of the AC voltage and frequency and the organoclay content were studied.

Electric Power cable is the apparatus that receives electric power from the Korea Electric Power Corporation and supplies electric power to electric train and annex facilities of each railway station. With substantial ripple effect during power blackout accidents, such power blackout accidents must be coped with by discriminating the status of insulation deterioration of electric power cable in advance. Discrimination of insulation deterioration of the electric power cable is normally executed while the power is disconnected and it is very difficult to discover, at early stage, the insulation deterioration of the power cable in operational state since the duration of inspection is limited. This research aims to consider method of diagnosing the insulation deterioration of electric power cable in On-Line state rather than diagnosis in Off-Line state in order to secure reliability of power supply by reducing duration of power blackout (accidental blackout and blackout during works) and by seeking reduction in equipment and manpower used in diagnosis of deterioration through prevention of the accident itself prior to occurrence through early restoration of accident due to insulation deterioration of the electric power cable and assessment of performance of the cable under operation.

In this paper, a newest kind of anti-atmospheric corrosion method is introduced. This method does not adopt organic coating, plastic layer or metal plating, instead it adopts a kind of aqueous emulsion containing numerous tine solid compounds that are absorbed onto the component surface, which play the role of anti-electrochemical corrosion.

The major causes of electrical fire are classified to short circuit fault, overload fault, electric leakage and electric contact failure. The principal factor of the fire is electric arc or spark accompanied with such electric faults. Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELB) and Molded_case Circuit Breaker (MCCB), that is, Residual Current Protective Devices (RCDs) used on low voltage distribution lines cut off earth leakage and overload, but the RCD can not cut off electric arc or spark to be a major factor of electrical fire. As the RCDs which are applied in low voltage distribution panel are prescribed to rated breaking time about 30[ms] (KS C 4613), the RCDs can't perceive to the periodic electric arc or spark of more short wavelength level. To improve such problems, this paper studies on an arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) using the distorted voltage wave in electric arc faults. The proposed voltage sensing type AFCI is an electrical fire prevention apparatus of new conception that operates a circuit breaker with sensing the instantaneous voltage drop of line voltage at electrical faults occurrence. The proposed AFCI is composed of control circuit topology using some semiconductor switching devices. Some experimental tests of the proposed AFCI confirm practicality and the validity of the analytical results.

본 논문에서는 PTC 서미스터의 전기적 특성과 온도특성을 이용하여 각종 전기화재 및 전기사고를 예방 보호하는 전기안전 제어장치에 대해 연구된다. PTC(Positive Temperature Coefficient) 서미스터는 온도변화에 따른 저항특성이 정(+)온도계수를 갖는 특징이 있다. 이러한 PTC는 정온도계수를 갖는 $BaTiO_3$계 세라믹스의 정방정계-입방정계 구조를 가지고 상변이점인 큐리(Curie)온도 이상으로 온도가 증가하면 저항이 급격히 증가하는 현상을 보인다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 정저항 온도특성과 자체 발열특성을 갖는 PTC 서미스터를 전기단락사고나 과부하사고 등의 전기사고의 감지센서로 이용하여 전기화재사고로부터 보호하는 제어시스템에 대해 제안한다. 그 결과 기존에 상용되는 차단기들의 빈번한 오동작과 비신뢰성, 저응답특성 등으로 발생되는 전기화재 및 전기재해의 문제점을 해결한다. 또한 제안한 전기안전장치는 다양한 실험결과를 통해 이론적 해석의 타당성이 입증된다.

Electrical leakage happens when faults in electrical apparatus or power lines occur. It causes electrical fires and electric shocks. In order to reduce accidents caused by electrical leakage current, it is important to detect faults effectively and shut off the power. In this paper, firstly we analyzed statistics of electrical fires and electric shocks caused by electrical leakage current. Secondly, standards of allowable leakage current and body impedance models were analyzed. Lastly, effective application methods for breaking electrical leakage current were suggested. The results will provide useful preventive measures of electrical fires and electric shocks caused by electrical leakage.

For constant operation, Electric Railway System has many electrically divided parts of the trolley lines to avoid error spreading. FRP-Section have a role to divide Catenary trolley lines electrically. If one electric train approach to the section at the same time with partial power failure, the pantograph of train can make a short circuit with supplied part to failure part. Electric arc induced with this switching effect, can break FRP-section, and there are such error cases. In this study, we propose one method to prevent FRP-section breakdown from these reason, with detecting sensor at the sectional position.

The simulation of electric field distribution of discharge tube with globular $ZrO_2$ and the removal characteristic of Escherichia coli by the discharge tube with globular $ZrO_2$ were estimated. The removal characteristic of Escherichia coli was related to the input voltage because the electric field is increased according to input voltage. As the particle size of $ZrO_2$ beads increased, the removal time of Escherichia coli was shortened due to the dielectric polarization of $ZrO_2$ beads.
