This paper presents the behaviors of transient and conventional grounding impedances of a 30m counterpoise according to the injection point of lightning impulse currents. As a result, the trend of the conventional grounding impedances measured as a function of risetime of impulse current is similar to the transient grounding impedance of counterpoise. The injection point of impulse current greatly influences on the transient grounding impedance characteristics of counterpoise. The transient grounding impedances strongly depend on the injection point and the rising time of impulse current and the soil characteristics.

[ $SF_6$ ]gas, which has an excellent dielectric strength and interruption performance, is used in various applications such as gas insulated switchgear (GIS) in substations. However, since $SF_6$ has a high global warming potential (GWP), it is necessary to find an eco-friendly alternative insulation gas. In order to examine the possibility of using alternative insulation gases for $SF_6$ in power distribution system equipment, the dielectric strength and physical phenomena of dry air in a quasi-uniform electric field are investigated experimentally in this paper. As a result, the breakdown voltages for positive polarity are higher than those for negative polarity under impulse voltage applications. The negative 50[%] flashover voltage, $V_{50}$ of dry air under conditions above 0.4[MPa] gas pressure, is higher than 150[kV], that is the basic impulse insulation level of distribution equipment. The $V_{50}$ increases linearly with increasing the gas pressure, regardless of the waveform and polarity of the applied impulse voltages. The voltage-time curves are dependent on the rise time of the impulse voltage and gas pressure. Furthermore, streamer discharge was observed through light emission images by an ICCD camera under impulse voltage applications.

New gas mixtures are now finding applications such as interrupting media for high-voltage circuit breakers. These mixtures consist of a high content of carbon tetrafluoride($CF_4$) added to sulfur hexafluoride($SF_6$). Nowdays $SF_6$ has been established for the use in gas insulated substations due to its high insulation withstand level and good arc quenching capability. At this paper Breakdown characteristics were investigated for $SF_6/CF_4$ mixtures when AC voltage and standard lightning impulse voltage(LI) was applied in a needle-plane electrodes. And partial discharge(PD) experiments were carried out in the test chamber which was made in needle-plane electrode. And ${\Phi}$-Q-N distribution of partial discharge signals was analyzed. The total pressure of the $SF_6/CF_4$ mixtures was varied within the range of 0.1-0.5 Mpa in the test chamber. The breakdown voltage in needle-plane electrode displayed N shape characteristics for increasing the content of $SF_6$ at positive impulse voltage and the PD inception voltage was increased slightly when pressure of $SF_6/CF_4$ Mixtures was increased. Maximum PD inception voltage is showed in 80% SF6/20%$CF_4$.

본 논문은 준평등전계중에서 임펄스전압에 대한 $N_2$가스의 절연파괴특성에 관한 것으로 실험은 1.2/50[${\mu}s$] 표준뇌임펄스전압, 180/2500[${\mu}s$] 개폐임펄스전압과 500[ns]/1[MHz] 급준성 과도과전압이 인가된 전극계에서 이루어졌다. 구-평판 전극의 간격은 14[mm]이고, 전계이용률은 71.2[%]이었으며 가스압력은 0.2~0.6[MPa]범위로 하였다. 그 결과 절연파괴는 스트리머방전에 의하여 일어났으며, 절연파괴전압은 상승시간이 빠른 급준성 과도과전압에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 정극성 절연파괴전압이 부극성보다 높았으며, 정극성의 경우 절연파괴까지의 시간도 더 긴 것으로 나타났다.

본 논문은 온도변화에 따른 $SF_6/N_2$ 혼합가스 중에서 높은 불평등전계의 임펄스절연파괴특성에 대한 실험적인 결과를 기술하였다. 온도범위는 $-25{\sim}25[^{\circ}C]$로 정하여 실험을 수행하였다. 임펄스 전구방전진전은 방전전류와 방전 광신호의 측정에 의해 분석되었다. 결과로써, 절연파괴전압은 정극성보다 부각성에서 온도변화에 대한 의존성이 강하게 나타났다. 온도가 상승함에 따라 부극성에서의 리더진전 스텝핑시간이 정극성보다 더 길게 나타났다. 본 연구 결과는 뇌서지에 대하여 우수한 성능을 가지는 가스절연선로의 설계에 유용한 정보가 될 것이다.

As the large-scale renewable energy power plant increases, the high-capacity and compact Energy Storage System (ESS) is required. However, this trend could reduce the insulation reliability of ESS. In this study, the surface flashover characteristics for four types of solid insulators are investigated in the uniform electric field with AC and Lightning Impulse (LI) voltage waveforms under various contamination levels. In addtion, insulator surfaces are compared based on the contact angle before and after surface flashover. The experimental results show that AC flashover voltage is dependent on the materials and the contamination level, but LI flashover voltage is only associated with the contamination level. Especially, AC flashover voltage of PC (PolyCarbonate) is higher than that of other insulators, which is associated with the unique and sequential creepage discharge propagation pattern of PC. The localized discharges on the surface of PC form corresponding tracking points. Then, the interconnected trackings result in the complete flashover. This flashover patterns degrade the surface of PC much more than that of epoxy and Bulk Molding Compoud (BMC). Thus, the contact angle of PC is significantly reduced compared to that of other insulators. The increased hydrophilicity in the surface of PC enhances the insulator surface conductivity.
