This paper presents an integrated fault diagnosis expert system for power systems. The proposed system diagnoses various faults occurred in both substations and transmission lines even in the case that substation fault is spreaded over the network. To cope with this problem, A meta-inference method is proposed. This scheme shares same the data structure with the pre-developed intelligent operational aid expert system installed in a practical sub-control center, without modification. This advanced integrated diagnosis system is developed using a low cost personal computer owing to the special modular programming technique. Case studies show a promising possibility of the proposed method.

In this paper we introduce preventative and diagnostic systems developed to prevent substations from accidental fault of electric power transmitting apparatus. We propose monitoring and diagnostic system for ultra high voltage GIS and main transformer of 765kV substations as an example of preventative and diagnostic techniques being applied in Korea. We also present a guideline to construct and manage an expert system for this purpose. Finally, an engineering solution as a substation management support system is proposed.

Along with the increase of the importance of power quality, many various systems are dedicated in the analysis of power quality nowadays. But there still exists the same problems for realizing such kind of analysis systems well. One is the customization of the power quality measure devices; The other is an economic problem. This paper presents the usefulness and the advantage of the ICD (Intelligent Electronic Device) as the measure device of power quality And this paper detailedly describes the development procedure of web-based power quality monitoring system through ActiveX controls. Now this power quality monitoring system is already applied to the substation automation system.

Currently, the new substation automation uses the international standard IEC 61850 communication protocol. KEPCO is also constructing a new substation based on IEC 61850 from 2013 through the pilot application and research and development starting from 2007. However, there are few cases where existing substations(Transformer, T/L GIS, D/L GIS, etc.) have been used, and RTU based substations operating systems have been changed to SA substations based on IEC 61850. Therefore, the introduction of IEC 61850 in existing substation facilities has the advantage of enhancing the substantiality of the substation by reusing existing facilities, improving the interoperability with the latest substations introduced, and converting existing substations into systems suitable for unmanned operation. In this paper, we introduce a case of changing the existing RTU based substation operation system to digital substation using IEC 61850 field information processor, Ethernet switch and SA operation system. Also, IEC 61850 client authentication program and Wireshark, which is a packet analysis tool, verify IEC 61850 conformance and its feasibility.

In this paper, we describe the developed learning tool of expert system for preventive diagnosis of substation power equipments. The expert system was programmed by using the diagnosis methods as like gas analysis in oil and partial discharge, hottest temperature, the current of OLTC driving meter, the current of fan and pump in MTr and driving coil current in GCB and leakage current in LA. The learning tool is composed of the expert system and the explanation of diagnosed examples and the applied rules and it well worked according to the rule.

The compatibility between different automation devices hasn't been difficult any longer while the new standard IEC61850 is imposed which provides efficient implementation on both embedded and non-embedded system. While implementing the substation automation, different devices from different company may be an obstacle to system designing. However, with the help of IEC61850 this problem can be neglected. In this paper the newest development of the demo system based on IEC61850 will be introduced.

This paper presents the real time stray current monitoring techniques on the DC railway system. These techniques are two types. The first one is the rail potential measurement technique between running rail and earthing mats on the important locations such as substation, station, and so on. And the second one is measurement technique of stray current through substation earthing mats and from collection mats, and continuous monitoring of return currents through the running rails. We need to apply these techniques on DC railway system to monitor stray current periodically and maintain the system properly.

Online monitoring system is becoming an essential element of railway traction system for utilized to condition based malignance management and various techniques currently employed in railway traction system. Among the various techniques, it is efficient to detect partial discharge signals by electromagnetic wave detection in order to detect insulation fault of rectifier. Although VHF (Very High Frequency), UHF (Ultra High Frequency) sensors were adopted to detect partial discharge of power facilities, due to characteristics of urban railway, excessive noise occurs from 500 MHz to 1.5 GHz on UHF bandwidth. In this paper a new measurement system able to monitoring the conditions of power facilities on DC substation in metro was studied and set up. The system uses UHF sensors to measure the partial discharge of the rectifier due to electric faulting and dielectric breakdown. Comparison and estimation for performance of SHF sensor which had devised to detect partial discharge signal of urban railway rectifier has conducted. In order to estimate performance of SHF sensor, we have compared the sensor with existing UHF sensor on sensitivity upon frequency bandwidth generated by pulse generator, and also we have verified performance of the SHF sensor by detection results of partial discharge signal from urban railway rectifier.

Recently, standard of living improved and Information-Communication industry developed rapidly. Thereby, interest about electric power quality is rising worldwide. So, research and Development to enhance electric power quality in various viewpoint until most suitable supply system from each kind device to improve electric power quality. And specially, interest about voltage quality is rising by diffusion increase of information communication appliance and minuteness control appliance etc. Also Power consumption is increasing, but expansion of large size generator by environmental and site security problem is difficult. So, introduction of distribution generation is investigated actively by electric-power industry reorganization. Voltage management of power system had been controlled by ULTC (Under Load Tap Changer) in substation and pole transformer on the high voltage distribution line. But, voltage control device on substation and distribution line is applied each other separatively. Therefore, efficiency of line voltage control equipment is dropping. Also, research about introduction upper limit of distribution generation is consisting continuously. This paper presents cooperation use way between voltage control device and introduction upper limit of distribution generation for most suitable voltage control in distribution power system.

There are many alarms in Substation Automation System because of data types and quantities increasing, so it is very difficult for operators to know the actual situations. In order to help operators easily make decision, some unnecessary alarms should be removed or combined as one. In this paper, alarm processing is using the structure of substation system and the relation of measured data and events to make some rules. Conventional alarm processing just gives data, but proposed alarm processing gives the whole information. In a simulation model system, the data such as voltage, current and CB status are collected by HyperSim and saved in DB, then proposed alarm processing has been testified using those data based on real-time simulation.
