Bus bars are used in place of cables because they can carry more electrical energy with the same volume of conductors. This paper deals with the electrical properties of ceramic coating material for busbars. A ceramic coated samples were prepared for the electrical properties test. There are two types of samples. One is a sample without degradation, and the other is a sample degraded for 30 days. Four electrical properties tests were carried out in accordance with domestic standards. Four electrical characteristics tests are AC dielectric breakdown, V-t, lighting impulse dielectric breakdown, and discharge arc. Both samples showed excellent electrical properties, and the ceramic coating material is very good insulating materials for bus bar.

Arc Fault Current is an which occurrs in two opposite electrode. In this paper, arc current control algorithm is designed for the interruption of arc fault current which is occurred in the low voltage network. This arc is one of the main causes of electric fire. General arc current sensor has troubles for detecting arc currents, thus we would like to propose the arc current detection method without current sensor. In this parer, arc discharge currents within power lines are being detected through the arc current control algorithm.

Optoelectronic arc discharge sensor was used to detect arc discharge inside power distribution panel. Arc discharge is fatal to power system once it begins, thus preventive detection is necessary before power failure occurs. Optoelectronic detection method was used to avoid direct electrical contact to power apparatus inside power distribution panel. 180 degree detection angle and detection range far exceeding 6m, which was sufficient for monitoring purpose, was achieved using the photodiode having $7.5mm^2$ of active surface area and flash source with $0.4cal/cm^2$ energy density, which is equivalent to 1.9J with $2.16cm^2$ emitting area. The response speed of arc discharge sensor was measured to be below 1 msec. The above optoelectronic arc discharge sensor was measured to be sensitive enough to detect 0.94 pC charge.

Design and test results of a VRAG(Vacuum Rotary Arc Gap) switch were presented. To control the damage of electrodes caused by the vacuum arc, Lorentz's force by the radial magnetic field between spiral electrodes was used to rotate the vacuum uc. VRAG switch electrodes were made of the material of CuCr and OFHC. Gap distance between two spiral type electrodes for the rotation of the arc discharge is 8, 10, 12mm. In the cathode, one trigger electrode was inserted into each spiral wing. Normal operation of the VRAG switch was confirmed with 10.6[$mutextrm{s}$]of trigger delay and 2~3[$mutextrm{s}$] of the jitter time. The speed of the vacuum arc was measured to be 0.6 ~ 1[km/s] by a motion analyzer.

To clarify the relations of optical properties to the main factors responsible for the loss and damage of luminous efficacy, a 20 min turn-on/turn-off test for 2,000 h for a ceramic metal halide lamp is conducted. The corrosion rates of the arc tube wall and electrode are estimated based on thermal stress. Wall blackening is attributed to the tungsten being transported from the hot electrode tips to the relatively cold arc tube wall. Furthermore, the grain boundaries of the arc tube are changed by the degradation. Distortion of the electrode is observed, and the ignition and the driving voltage of the load both increase. Finally, the color rendering index and the color coordinates are changed after the degradation. The luminous flux and the intensity of the luminous distribution are decreased significantly.

Liquid nitrogen has many adventages. It is cheaper than other cooling medium. It is easy to obtain high purity. It's utilized with easy. In future, liquid nitrogen is able to be accepted cooling medium for the superconducting and cryogenic applicated equipments. Cryogenic liquid may be atmospheric pressure state because thermoinsulation is ineffective, airtight decreasing by long time using and bubble occured by flowing current. If it is to be atmospheric pressure state, the electrical insulation strength is dropped and processed partial discharge, finally breakdown. Processing of breakdown has anticipated by measuring radiated-electromagnetic wave which is happened in time of breakdown. There is a measurement of radiated electromagnetic wave as a method that proceeding breakdown is anticipated. In this paper, radiated electromagnetic wave was measured in arc discharge by above conditions as a basic experiment.

This paper addressed the spectrum of ultrasonic waves produced by arc and/or coronal discharge inside the switchboard. Portable ultrasound sensors are useful for detecting discharge phenomena, such as coronal means in electrical systems. However, a typical handheld ultrasound detector has a disadvantage of determining the type of problem by listening to the sound characteristics and predicting the results, as a result of the determination of whether a discharge is present. Therefore, a new method of analysis is required to distinguish ultrasonic characteristics. In this paper, we published an ultrasound analysis case study to visualize the sound of ultrasonic waves measured with ultrasonic sensors. From the results of the experiment, it was possible to detect coronal discharge and serial arc discharge without interference by the ultrasonic detection system.

Insulated methods of compact bus duct has been applied a way of coating Epoxy powder. The problem which is caused by degradation during operation is very important in severe environment. Therefore, this study compared and verified many kind of properties ; electrical breakdown by thermal and water aging, v-t characteristic, arc discharge, mechanical properties, bending test and cross cut. Sample D was stable before the $T_g$ to be about $7{\sim}10 %$ decrease in the breakdown test according to temperature change. In case of V-t and arc discharge, it had been kept up suitable characteristic. Also, in case of electrical and mechanical characteristic, both sample D and A have excellent capacity.

Perfluorocompounds (PFCs) gases were decomposed by gliding arc plasma generated by AC pulse power. $N_2$ gas of 10 LPM flow rate and $H_2$ gas of 0.5 LPM were introduced into the gliding arc plasma generated between a pair of electrodes with SUS 303 material, and the PFCs gases were injected in the plasma and thereby were decomposed. The PFCs gas-decomposition-characteristics through the gliding arc plasma were analyzed by FT-IR, where pure $N_2$ and $H_2$-added $N_2$ environment were used to generate the gliding arc plasma. The PFCs gas-decomposition-properties were changed by electric power for gliding arc plasma generation and the H2 gas addition was effective to enhance the PFCs decomposition rate.
