The current paper deals with a new live-line insulator inspection tool system that will be used by the Korea Electric Power Corporation for its 154 kV power transmission lines in 2011. Unlike the existing contact type tools, the developed inspection tool automates parts of the insulator inspection process using a sensor and an actuator. The tool sustains its weight independently, not by a lineman. In addition, the inspection tool measures the insulation resistance of an insulator together with its distribution voltage, thus providing more information for analysis and diagnosis. Such characteristics improve the system's operation efficiency, measurement reliability, and usability. We confirmed its effectiveness through live-line field tests with actual power transmission lines.

The effects of post curing conditions on thermal properties of alumina filled epoxy resin system DGEBA/MDA/SN were investigated. As the post curing time increased at 15$0^{\circ}C$, the glass transition temperature increased from 121 to 124, slightly. As the heating rate increased, high thermal decomposing temperature (T$_{d}$) and most decomposing temperature (T$_{p}$) increased. For the case of post-cured system at 15$0^{\circ}C$ for 4 days showed lower values than virgin system. At the post curing condition the system must have been thermally degraded.ded.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the breakdown properties in joint interface of power cables with heat treatment. The specimens have the structure of XLPE/EPDM interface like the joint of distribution power cable. The breakdown characteristics of the SLPE/EPDM joint were studied with crosslinking by=products. AC breakdown voltages were measured with heat treatment time and interfacial materials and crosslinking by-products as testing factors. This study has shown that crosslinking by-product gases play an important role at the insulation properties of cable joints by heating. The dielectric strength shows the lowest values at 4 hours heat treatment. The AC breakdown strength in the untreated sample was increased with heat treatment time.

The aging characteristics of amorphous FeS178TBS113TSiS19T wound cores have been investigated as a function of aging temperature and time. The core losses(1.2T/60Hz) of amorphous wound cores dipped in transformer oil decrease in comparision with initial stage of aging test due to insulation of ribbon stacks by oil penetration. It is estimated that it takes 30 years or more for 10% increase in core losses (1.2T/60Hz) of amorphous wound cores aged at normal transformer running temperature(100$^{\circ}C$). So we condlude that the amorphous core is satisfactorily applicable to transformer.

There are many electrical accidents between bare wire and line post insulator which is degraded by long time using, causing leakage current on the surface of insulator. In this paper it is presented that the 22.9 Kv-y distribution lines are protected by binding cover which is needed from fog or rainy moisture, surges occurring by switching or lightening pulse. It is analyzed to investigate the unbalanced transfer characteristics and reflection coefficient by using binding cover and non-cover. It was tested the radio interference voltage in the test room and electric field strength by calculation between binding cover and non-cover. In the factory the leakage current causing on the surface of insulator was tested in the state of light load and heavy load.

Some design technologies of AC traction motor for rolling stocks are presented. AC Traction motors for rolling stocks are operated in worst conditions such as frequent mechanical vibrations, compact design with limited mounting space, severe thermal stress at outside, driven with nonsinusoidal voltage waveform inverters, and so on. Therefore, design procedures must be carefully investigated in the viewpoint of theoritically and practical use. Design procedure contains, the motor size determination, electromagnetic circuit design, insulation system design, vibrations and thermal expansion of rotor bars, temperature rise, as well as output characteristics.

The degradation of the dielectric properties of insulating papers that were used under loaded conditions at cryogenic temperature was paid attention. Electrical and tensile stress properties of dielectric paper at cryogenic temperature have been investigated to optimum insulating design of high-Tc superconducting(HTS) cable. Tensile strength of PPLP in liquid nitrogen was high more than that of air, but tensile strain could know that decrease sharply. According as tensile strength increases, the breakdown stress of PPLP in liquid nitrogen was decreased.

Although there are many applications with gypsum board because of its economical and construction advantages, four-layer construction technique, (hollow area between two-layer panel sets) is the general case to achieve the insulation, and resistance of horizontally applied force. Since this construction method has many problems such as complicate construction steps and increased cost, it is needed that the two-layer panel for improved construction and economical advantage for lightweight pane: thick panel with favorable performances. Therefore, in this research, based on the ALC panel with 10 to 30mm depth, feasibility of the paper reinforced panel as a lightweight wall material. As a result, favorable performance with increased flexural strength were achieved with paper reinforcement.

In this thesis, it is investigated that the effect of the cross linked polyethylene(XLPE) insulator do to breakdown phenomenon by the insertion of the needle and bar electrode into XLPE which is used of electric power cable for the ultra-high voltage. The result of the partial discharge properties in the specimen showed that in case of the insertion of needle or bar electrode into XLPE, the effect of the inner discharge become large when the air void is bigger then the clearance of the electrode of the specimen. The closer the distance between the insulator and needle electrode, it takes less time to the insulation breakdown.

Porcelain insulators are widely used in overhead high-voltage power transmission lines while providing adequate insulation to withstand switching and lightning over voltages. For the safety consideration, we proposed a novel insulator inspection method using harmonic, which is retrieved from the low frequency signal. The working principle of this new method is based on the relationship between the low frequency harmonic and the defective characteristic of the insulators. So, in this paper, the harmonic retrieval in the complex noise is solved with the HOC (High Order Cumulants) is extended. In the experiment, as one of our dedicated contribution, we illustrate low frequency harmonic and the defective characteristics of the porcelain insulators.
