본 논문에서는 저전압 교류회로에서 과도이상전압에 대한 보호소자로 사용되는 산화아연형 바리스터의 뇌충격전류에 대한 영향에 대하여 기술하였다. 산화아연형 바리스터는 뇌충격전류에 의해 열화가 진행되며, 열화된 바리스터는 정상 운전전압에서도 열폭주에 도달하여 파괴되므로, 바리스터의 전기적 특성변화를 평가 하는 것은 대단히 중요하다. 바리스터를 가속열화시키기 위하여 국제규격 IEC 61000-4-5에 규정된 뇌충격전류를 적용하였으며, 1회의방전에 바리스터에는 약 12(J)의 에너지가 인가된다. 뇌충격전류의 인가에 따른 바리스터의 누설전류, 정격전압 등을 측정하였으며, 또한 바리스터에 뇌충격전류를 200회 인가 후 초기상태의 미세구조와 비교하였다. 실험결과로부터 바리스터는 뇌충격전류의 인가에 따라 누설전류는 증가하고 정격전압은 감소하는 경향을 나타내면서 전기적 성능이 저하됨을 확인하였다.

This paper describes an effect of a single- and a quadruple-lightning impulse currents on electrical characteristics of ZnO blocks, and an expert system to diagnose arrestor deterioration. To deduce the parameters needed for diagnosing arrester deterioration, an accelerate deterioration teat is carried out. In the experiment, leakage current components are measured. Also, wave height distribution of the leakage current according to the progress of arrester deterioration is analyzed. From the experimental results, the wave height distribution of the leakage current showed conspicuous difference even in an immaterial leakage current increase. Therefore, the use of wave height distribution of the leakage current in deterioration diagnostic technique makes more accurate diagnosis than the conventional method by using only a leakage currant value. Finally, the expert system based on the experimental results is developed and the system can diagnose arrestor deterioration by measuring the leakage current and its wade height distribution.

Distribution lines are spanned on a much large area as compared to transmission lines, and therefore, are more often susceptible to lightning strokes. The selection of the proper value of basic insulation level(BIL), for particular insolation components of distribution structures in specific, is very important. Lightning strikes has current risetimes ranging from 0.1 to several $\mu s$ and can produce transient overvoltages substantially greater than the BIL of many distribution systems in spite of lightning arresters. This paper describes lightning overvoltage of a 22.9kV distribution system due to lightning strike. This study will provide the information on insulation coordination studies to adopt BIL.

Because the overhead transmission lines are exposed to the outdoor weather, the faults of the transmission lines are due to natural conditions, and among these faults, the outage rate by lightning is about 50%. The lightning causes the damage of power system equipments, the shut down of electricity and the electro-magnetic interference. To study the basic research of the lightning parameters for power system operation, LPATS-III (Lightning Positioning and Tracking System) has been introduced since 1995 in Korea. This paper describes the inspection result about location information error and the statistical distribution of lightning current.

To study the basic research of the lightning parameter for power system operation. LPATS(Lightning Position and Tracking System) has been introduced since 1995 in KEPCO. We have developed the lightning parameter analysis program. We obtained the various statistical distribution of lightning current parameters from 1995 by this program. In this paper, we describe the results on the comparison/analysis between the fault of transmission line and the LPATS lightning data.

Because the overhead transmission lines are exposed to the outdoor weather, the faults of the transmission tines are due to natural conditions, and among these faults, the outage rate by lightning is about 50%. The lightning causes the damage of power system equipments, the shut down of electricity and the electro-magnetic interference. Therefore, the pertinent insulation design is important, not only to decrease the damage of the facility itself but also to increase the reliability of electric power system. For these reasons, we have to obtain and accumulate the lightning current parameters for the basic lightning research. This paper describes the development of real time analysis system about lightning information.

This paper gives a Wireless lightning detecting and warning system. This system composed of transmitter and receiver. It promptly senses lightning strikes on the power lines and transmission towers by using the lightning current detection circuit in a small transmitter situated on the top of power tower, and it sends the number of lightning strikes and the ID. of the tower to patrols through the receivers. This system will be used to discover the exact location of a lightning strike.

To evaluate the change in protective levels of zinc oxide (ZnO) varistors after the surge absorption, this paper investigated the effects of the number of injection and amplitude of lightning surges on the life of ZnO varistors for low voltages. Leakage currents flowing through ZnO varistors subjected to the $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents under 60 Hz AC voltages were measured. The surge simulator system ECAT that can generate $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents with a peak short-circuit of 5 $[kA_p]$ was used. The ZnO varistor leakage current increases with exposure to impulse current, and the number of injection of $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents to breakdown was inversely proportional to the amplitude of the test current. Behaviors of ZnO varistor leakage currents were strongly dependent on the number of injection and amplitude of $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents. ZnO varistors degrade gradually when subjected to impulse current, and the resistive leakage current flowing through ZnO varistors subjected to the $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse currents under 60 Hz AC voltages was significantly increased after a certain number of injection that is dependent on the amplitude of the test impulse current. As a result, the life of ZnO varistors mainly depends on the amplitude and occurrence frequency of lightning surges.

A simplified method for the estimation of lightning performance of transmission Lines is described. Only one stroke current wave shape was used and the potentials of tower top and crossarms were computed at the two time points to obtain the critical stroke current for insulator flashover. Variation of the critical stroke current due to power frequency voltage was also takes into account. An applied example on 345KV Line model was shown and the calculated result was compared with the estimating curve suggested by Clayton & Young.
