It has been known that D.C. breakdown Voltage is lower than A.C. breakdown Voltage in insulatingoil, but there are still many unvivid points at electric conduction in breakdown or under of high electric field. This study measured the electric current-electric field characteristics (I-E characteristics) and the breakdown Voltage under of D.C. electric field of insulating oil using the system of electrodes that are near the Uniform electric field with a result. I can study, electric conduction in area of high electric field depends upon the Schottky effect. The liquidity of breakdown electric field takes place by the local concentration of electric field. The longer gap is and the more electric current is the more breakdown Voltage decreased. There are not almost the change of electric current-electric field characteristics by materials of electrode.

In this paper, in order to analyze high electrical insulation and cooling performance using mineral oil, the liquid insulating oil was changed in electrode shape and distance between electrodes to compare and analyze electrical characteristics according to equal electric field, quasi-equivalent electric field, and unequal electric field. As a result, the breakdown voltages were 36,875 V and 36,875 V in the form of sphere-sphere and plate-plate electrodes with equal electric fields. The breakdown voltage was 31,475 V in the sphere-plate electrode type, which is a quasi-equilibrium field, and the breakdown voltage was 28,592 V, 27,050 V, and 22,750 V in the needle-needle, sphere-needle, and needle-plate electrode types, which are unequal fields. Through this, it is possible to know the difference in breakdown voltage according to the type of electric field. The more equal the field, the higher the breakdown voltage, and the more unequal field, the lower the breakdown voltage. The difference in insulation breakdown voltage could be seen depending on the type of electric field, the insulation breakdown voltage was higher for the more equal electric field, and the insulation breakdown voltage was lower for the more unequal electric field. Also, it was confirmed that the closer the distance between the electrodes, the higher the insulation breakdown voltage, the higher the insulation breakdown current, and the insulation breakdown voltage and the insulation breakdown current were proportional.

Insulation of valve-side windings in converter transformer withstands pulsating voltages, which will produce more serious insulation problems. In this paper, the electric breakdown experiments of oil-paper insulation specimens were executed at pulsating voltages and different temperatures. Experiment and analysis results showed that the breakdown voltage decreased with increasing temperature under pulsating voltage. The influence of temperature proves to be more significant once the temperature exceeds a limitation threshold. A fitting formula between breakdown voltage and the temperature was reported. Finally, in order to clearly understand the breakdown properties under pulsating voltage, the electric field distribution and space charge behavior under pulsating voltage at different temperature were discussed.

Fire or electrical problem while DC electric traction vehicle operation caused by various reasons can lead to not only suspension of the operation, but also severe aftermath such as massive casualty. In this paper, fire analysis on DC electric traction vehicle caused by electrical breakdown on line breaker, which is in connection with the power supply, is presented. When the electric arc, the by-product of frequent line breaker operation, is not fully diminished, it leads to electrical breakdown and fire. Especially, electrical breakdown can be easily induced by the open-and-close operation of inner contractor inside line breaker, eventually followed by ground fault and generation of transient current. Electric arc is consequent on the ground fault and acts as possible ignition source, leading to fire. Also, during the repetitive operation of the line breaker, the contactor is separated each other and some copper powder is generated, and the copper powder provided breakdown path, resulting in fire.

A breakdown voltage and breakdown electric field of the transformer insulating oil of liquid dielectric were studied in uniform electric field and non-uniform electric field and the transformer insulating oil was observed by the process reached breakdown. Insulation performance evaluation of the liquid dielectric was evaluated at the electrode spacing of 2.5 mm under the conditions of domestic and international standards (KS C IEC 60156), so a comparative review was conducted at the electrode spacing of 2.5 mm. When the electrode spacing is 2.5 mm, the average breakdown voltage is 38.5 kV for sphere-sphere electrodes, 26.6 kV for plate-plate electrodes, 22.9 kV for needle-needle electrodes, and 24.3 kV for sphere-needle electrodes. 23.7 kV for the sphere-plate electrode, and 20.7 kV for the needle-plate electrode. From these results, it can be seen that the average value of the breakdown voltage at the electrode spacing of 2.5 mm, in ascending order, is sphere-sphere, plate-plate, sphere-needle, sphere-plate, needle-needle and needle-plate. It was found that the breakdown voltage of the unequal field was lower than that of the equal field.

In order to fabricate a high breakdown SiC-SBD (Schottky barrier diode), we investigate an effect on metal guard ring (MGR) in breakdown characteristics of the SiC-SBD. The breakdown characteristics of MGR-type SiC-SBD is significantly dependent on both the guard ring metal and the alloying time of guard ring metal. The breakdown characteristics of MGR-type SiC-SBDs are essentially improved as the alloying time of guard ring metal is increased. The SiC-SBD without MGR shows less than 200 V breakdown voltage, while the SiC-SBD with Al MGR shows approximately 700 V breakdown voltage. The improvement in breakdown characteristics is attributed to the field edge termination effect by the MGR, which is similar to an implanted guard ring-type SiC-SBD. There are two breakdown origins in the MGR-type SiC-SBD. One is due to a crystal defects, such as micropipes and stacking faults, in the Epi-layers and the SiC substrate, and occurs at a lower electric field. The other is due to the destruction of guard ring metal, which occurs at a higher electric field. The demolition of guard ring metal is due to the electric field concentration at an edge of Schottky contact metal.

본 논문에서는 전계해석을 통하여 금속성 파티클이 GIS 스페이서의 여러 위치에 부차되었을 경우 립이 파괴전압특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한, 립-스페이서의 여러 위치에 금속성 파티클을 부착하고 립의 모양, 길이, 두께 등의 변화에 따라 얻은 파괴진압특성 실험결과를 전계해석의 결과와 비교·검토하였다. 전계해석의 결과 립의 연면에서의 전계집중이 다른 부분에 비하며 완화되어 절연파괴시 발생된 스트리머의 진전이 억제될 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 실험을 통하여 파괴전압이 상승된다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 립의 길이와 두께 등에 따라서도 파괴전압 특성이 달라짐을 알 수 있었다. 또한 립의 끝단을 라운드 처리함으로써 파괴전압 특성을 더욱 향상시킬 수 있음을 전계해석과 실험을 통하여 알 수 있었다.

Converter transformer is the key equipment of high voltage direct current transmission system. The solid suspending particles originating from the process of installation and operation of converter transformer have significant influence on the insulation performance of transformer oil, especially in presence of DC component in applied voltage. Under high electric field, the particles easily lead to partial discharge and breakdown of insulating oil. This paper investigated copper particle effect on the breakdown voltage of transformer oil at combined AC and DC voltage. A simulation model with single copper particle was established to interpret the particle effect on the breakdown strength of insulating oil. The experimental and simulation results showed that the particles distort the electric field. The breakdown voltage of insulating oil contaminated with copper particle decreases with the increase of particle number, and the breakdown voltage and the logarithm of particle number approximately satisfy the linear relationship. With the increase of the DC component in applied voltage, the breakdown voltage of contaminated insulating oil decreases. The simulation results show that the particle collides with the electrode more frequently with more DC component contained in the applied voltage, which will trigger more discharge and decrease the breakdown voltage of insulating oil.

The Breakdown electric field of ZnO semiconductor devices in voltage-current characteristics was increased by increasing of additive materials. The specimen that has not additive materials was not formed spinel structure. The critical voltage that has not spinel structure was 235[V]. When the additive materials has 0.5 and 2[mol%], the Breakdown electric field was 840 and 758[V] in each additive materials. The Breakdown electric field of varistors as a factor of voltage and current was increased by addition of oxide antimony. The varistors that has oxide antimony was linearly increased in low electric field.
