현재 국내에서 제조되는 저압 30AF(Ampere Frame) 소형 차단기의 경우 선로 단락사고 시 특성에 따라 순시 (Instantaneous) 동작이 다르게 반응함으로써 정전범위 확대, 정격단락차단용량(Rated short-circuit breaking capacities) 초과로 인한 폭발 및 Trip시 Arc방출 등 많은 문제점을 보이고 있다. 최종부하의 전단에 설치되는 저압차단기(Low voltage circuit-breakers)는 그 기능 및 역할이 큰 만큼 안전성을 중대시키는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 논문은 국내에서 제조되는 30AF 소형 차단기의 사고유형과 제조사별 순시 Trip 동작속도의 시험 data를 확보하여 이를 분석하였다. 이는 향후 저압차단기의 안전에 관한 규격개정에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, protection coordination between residual current devices and surge protective devices in low-voltage consumer's distribution systems are presented. In the case that a surge protrctive device(SPD) is located on the load side of an residual current device(RCD), when the surge is injected from the source side of the RCD, most of injected surge currents are split into the RCD and the protection coordination between the SPD and RCD is improper, three of 6 specimens experience unintended operation due to test impulse currents. Also when the surges is injected from the load side, a lot of the surge currents is split into the SPD, but a half of test specimens causes nuisance trip. Coordination between SPD and RCD is not valid. When installing SPD, it is important to select SPD after due consideration of the protection voltage level of metal oxide varistor embedded in RCD. It is expected that the results obtained from this work could be useful to improve the protection effects of SPD in low-voltage distribution systems.

Installing surge protection devices for a low-voltage system is important to ensure the survival of electric or electronic devices and systems. If surge protection devices (SPD) are installed without consideration of the concept of lightning protection zones, the equipment to be protected might be damaged despite the correct energy coordination of SPDs. This damage is induced by the reflection phenomena on the cable connecting an external SPD and the load protected. These reflection phenomena depend on the characteristics of the output of the external SPD, the input of the loads, and the cables between the load and the external SPD. Therefore, the SPD has an effective protection distance under the condition of the specific load and the specific voltage protection level of SPD. In this paper, PSCAD/EMTDC software is used to simulate the residual voltage characteristics of SPD Entering the low-voltage device. And by applying a certain voltage level, the effective protection distances of SPD were analyzed according to the each load and length of connecting cable, and the effectiveness of SPD were verified.

The high-voltage pulse generator is consist of transformers of fundamental wave and harmonic waves, and shunt capacitances. The pulse has the fundamental wave and the harmonic waves that have been increased as a series circuit by the transformers to make high voltage pulse. This paper shows that pulse generator circuit is analyzed using Miller's theorem and network theory(ABCD Matrix) and simulated in frequency and time domain using Matlab program. The output voltage of pulse were obtained to 2.5kHz, 1.8kV. Output pulse voltage increases as $L_m$ increases in low voltage circuit. In high voltage circuit, outer capacitors are related to frequency band pass characteristics.

A low voltage wire should be used considering that a load used in the end is a low voltage. In regard to these wires, there are needs for research about the wire thickness calculation in accordance with IEC standard because the standardization process for IEC (KS standard) was completed on June 30, 2005, and they stopped producing NEC-standard products by the order from Korean Agency for Technology and Standards under Ministry of Knowledge Economy (former Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy) since July 1, 2006. This study compared, in terms of the thickness calculation of low voltage wire, a reduction factor application by IEC standard about allowed current and an application for calculation of voltage drop. It also proposed the formula for IEC standard to decrease errors and resolve the difficulty of standardized calculation by analyzing the difference between simplified formula and standardized formula that are the most frequently used calculation method of voltage drop.

In this paper, we analyze the typical phase voltage and line current waveform characteristics of the distribution system with 3 phase small synchronous generation source in case with load and non-load group, in order to investigate the power quality for end load connected of generation source. As demonstrated by our experimental results, the distortion and power quality of phase voltage and line current waveform were relatively good for low voltage 3 phase model grids connected of 3 phase small synchronous generation source in case with non-load group. However, distortion and power quality of voltage and current waveform was poor for low voltage 3 phase model grids connected to 3 phase small synchronous generation source in the load group with some phase voltage and frequency difference. From the above results, we conclude that the phase voltage and frequency of 3 phase generation source must be identical to that of distribution system source to maximize the power quality. Also, special attention is required in case of having load group or non-load group to 3 phase generation source.

AC-based power systems, having the advantages that voltage transformation and long distance transmission are easy, have been constructed since the last 19th century. However, DC-based power system is paid attention these days because of the development of power electronic devices as well as the increase of digital loads and distributed generation. For instance, the transmission systems using High Voltage DC (HVDC) are commercially operated in the world and the researches on distribution system using Low Voltage DC (LVDC) are gradually increased. This paper analyzes voltage sag, resulted from faults, in LVDC distribution system according to the number of poles. Modeling and simulation with various conditions are conducted by using ElectroMagnetic Transients Program (EMTP). Moreover, some countermeasures to reduce voltage sag in LVDC distribution system are suggested briefly.

정밀하고 소형화된 전자기기 사용의 증가로 인한 전원공급의 질적 향상에 대한 필요성이 강하게 증가하고 있다. 저압전원 배전계통에서의 과도 과전압은 직격 또는 유도뢰에 의해 유도되어지고, 가정, 사무실, 공장 등의 자동화시스템이나 병원설비와 같은 중요한 시스템의 손상이나 고장의 원인이 되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 임펄스 발생기를 이용하여 배전용 변압기를 거쳐 저압 전원시스템으로 이행되는 뇌과전압의 양상에 대하여 실험적으로 조사하였다. 배전용 변압기의 1차측에 설치한 피뢰기와 수용가측 추가접지는 저압 전원시스템으로 이행되는 뇌서지전압의 제한에는 크게 기여하지 않았다.

This paper describes the self healing characteristics of metalized polypropylene film(MPPF) under ac condition. PDs were generally observed at relatively low voltage, and the PDIVs were differently varied depending on the number of pre-self healing due to void defects. Several pre-self healing events took place at lower voltage than the critical breakdown voltage of PPF. Self healing mainly occurred at pin tips, wrinkle sides, and cross points of wrinkles. The applied voltage at self healing was increased with PPF thickness. The burn out area at self healing was also increased with the applied voltage and PPF thickness. The peak currents in a grounding conductor at self healing was also increased with the applied voltage.
