This paper proposes a method for improving efficiency of high-voltage motors off-line insulation diagnostic test. The conventional manual test method has measurement errors and excessive processing time. We developed the KITAS system and solved these problems by using the instrument remote control and communication technology. The result of proficiency testing by interlaboratory comparisons using Power Factor Tip-Up test was '${\mid}E_n{\mid}$ < 1'. It was possible to confirm the validity of acquired data from the KITAS and establish a remote diagnostic system for easy access without physical limitations.

This paper is purpose to introduce the database management program of insulation tests for high voltage rotating machines. KEPRI has carried out insulation tests for high voltage equipment since 1998, the number of tests grow larger every year. It is difficult to manage the numerous test results, so we developed the insulation diagnostic database program. The features of this program are an easy-search test result and making a graph of AC, tan${\Delta}$ test. the most useful function is the trend management. Using the trend function, we can find the aging deterioration for high voltage machines easily.

A variety of diagnostic tests are widely applied in the field in industry to evaluate the condition of high voltage (HV) motor stator insulation. In this paper, the influence of temperature on the stator insulation diagnostic tests such as the insulation resistance, AC current, dissipation factor, and partial discharge measurements are studied and reported. The tests are performed with the HV motor stator winding temperature set between $40^{\circ}C$ to $80^{\circ}C$ in $10^{\circ}C$ intervals. It is shown that the AC current, dissipation factor, and partial discharge magnitude steadily increase with temperature, which suggests that temperature must be taken into account in the interpretation of the test results.

The insulation aging characteristics and structural analysis test were performed to analyze the correlations among the insulation deterioration, diagnostic results and the breakdown strength for the underground power cables. From the results of the degree of crosslinking test, hot-oil test etc., it could be confirmed that there were no manufacturing defects in the power cables under test. From the results of the water tree test and chemical structural analysis, it could be confirmed that the aging status of cable under test were very poor, especially for B-Phase and the degree of aging was increased in the orders of A, C and B-phase. From the above results, it could be concluded that the insulation aging characteristic analysis results were well consistent with the diagnostic and breakdown test results, and also confirmed that the diagnostic system under consideration was successful to discriminate the bad cables which is likely to cause cable system failure.

We have developed the automatic diagnostic system for power cable insulation using DC voltage decay method in this work. Test condition, test method and diagnose criteria of our diagnostic system are adjustable to a class of power cables such as 3.3, 6.6, 11 and 22kV power cables. We have also developed measurement and diagnostic programs for win95 which is suitable for the management of database such as test condition, diagnose results and cable operation data.

Mica, which have a good thermal and electrical characteristics, while will cleave easily at these layers. In order to bond mica materials soldily, mica/epoxy composite insulation materials were developed for generator stator winding. There are lots of problems such as delamination and partial discharge of these insulation materials caused by mechanical, electrical and thermal aging. Several experiments have been conducted in order to find the useful diagnostic parameters from the partial discharge phenomena by applying a new measurement techniques. this paper deals with the partial discharge pulse characteristics, which may be a useful diagnostic concept in predicting insulation condition of generator stator insulation materials. Long term insulation aging test shows that partial discharge phase angle an magnitude are identified as one of the main key techniques for insulation diagnosis on generator stator winding.

The measurements were performed to assess the insulation deterioration condition of the stator winding of Dae-Cheong hydro-generator ${\sharp}2$ which had been in service after being constructed 1980. After repair of the stator winding insulation. we conducted insulation diagnostic tests which include resistance, polarization index(P. I). AC current, dissipation factor($Tan{\delta}$) and partial discharges ($Q_{max}$). The results of diagnostic tests were compared to the previous records. On the basis of these test results. this paper tried to present the importance of insulation repair for the generator stator winding.

This test was performed to assess the insulation deterioration condition of the stator winding of Chung-Ju hydrogenerator #4 and Dae-Cheong hydrogenerator #2 which had been in service after being constructed 1980. The insulation diagnostic tests include resistance polarization index(P.I.) AC current, dissipation factor(Tan ${\delta}$) and partial discharges ($Q_{max}$).

Diagnostic tests were performed on six high voltage motors. These tests included ac current, dissipation factor(tan6) and partial discharge(PD) magnitude. The rewind of motor stator insulation at rated voltage is assessed by the results of these tests. After completing the diagnostic tests, the stator windings of motors were subjected to gradually increasing ac voltage, until the insulation punctured. No. 1 and No.2 motors(4.16 kV) failed near rated voltage of 12.3 kV and 14.2 kV, respectively. The breakdown voltage of No.3 and No.4 motors(6.6 kV) was 17.6 kV and 17.8 kV, respectively. These motors are higher that expected for good quality coils in 6.6 kV class motors.
