This paper deals with the design rule and performance results of the surge protective devices (SPDs) for low-voltage mains on shipboard. The proposed SPDs consists of a metal oxide varistors (MOV) and a L-C filter to improve noise-elimination performance. Three kinds of SPDs are fabricated and tested by using a combination surge generator which produce the standard impulse current of 8/20${\mu}s$ 2.1kA. As a results, the proposed SPDs with series L-C filter have more excellent transient blocking and noise reduction performance than the conventional ones.

Due to the miniaturization of electrical components and assembles on signal circuits, transient overvoltages caused by switching operation or lightning surges have become more interesting concern to the field of electrical engineering. In this paper, the development of surge protective devices(SPDs) that can protect sensitive signal device on shipboard from overvoltages are described. Two kinds of SPDs are designed and tested by using a combination surge generator which can produce the standard impulse current of 8/20${\mu}s$ 2.1kA according to the IEC 61000-4-5 standard. From the simulation and experimental results, it is confirmed that the proposed SPDs have an enough protection performance with a low insertion loss and a low clamping voltage.

This paper proposes the adaptive relaying algorithm of protective devices applied in the neighboring distribution feeders for reliable and efficient operations of a wind farm interconnected with distribution networks by dedicated lines. Generally, it would be highly possible that the wind turbine generators are influenced by abnormal grid conditions such as disturbances occurring in the neighboring distribution feeders as well as the dedicated power line. The delayed operation time of protective devices for satisfying the coordination might overly expose the interconnected wind turbine generators to the fault and cause damage to them. In order to reduce the damages on the interconnected wind farm about the faults happening in distribution networks, this paper describes the proper delayed operation time of protective relay.

Recently, damages of electronic equipments due to lightning surges coming from AC power lines are increasing. In this work, to propose the effective installation methods of surge protective devices(SPDs), the protective performances of SPDs in actual-sized test circuits were experimentally investigated. In order to obtain the lowest limiting voltage and best protection, long leads of SPDs in installation practices are significantly undesirable. An effective installation method of SPDs for AC mains was proposed. The way of installing SPDs at every branch circuits is more effective than that of installing a SPD near the point of entry.

Surge protective devices (SPD) have a special position because of the expectation that they perform an effective protective function against various kinds of surges. However, there exists a misconception that the SPD satisfying lower measured limiting voltage (MLV) should also protect equipment against temporary overvoltages (TOVs) as well. This paper inspects various types of MOV based SPDs and carry out experiments on the side effects of the low MLV characteristics. The experiment results show that a low MLV could cause a higher TOV-induced SPD failure rate in the field.

뇌서지 보호는 오늘날 대부분의 전기전자기기에 있어 중요한 문제 중 하나이다. 그리고 뇌서지 보호를 위한 대다수 SPD의 가장 주요 부품으로 MOV가 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 타입의 MOV 기반 SPD를 조사하고 낮은 MLV특성의 부작용에 대하여 실험하였다. 실험결과로서 상대적으로 낮은 MLV특성은 실제 현장에서 발생 가능한 TOV 고장 상태하에서 더 큰 고장률로 나타날 수 있으며, 피보호기기보다 우선하여 소손될 수 있음을 알 수 있다. 결국 안전면에서 SPD는 높은 TOV내력과 신속한 단로기의 동작이 요구된다.

The conventional Residual Current Protective Devices(RCD, or earth leakage circuit breaker, ELB) operates depending on the total leakage current which is the vector-sum of resistive and capacitive components of a leakage current. However, the electric disaster such as electric shock or fire is mainly caused by the resistive component. Therefore, in this view point, the RCD is more realistic when it operates by the resistive component of the leakage current. In this paper, a new algorithm for measuring the resistive leakage current from the total leakage current is suggested, and is realized to an actual circuit. According to the suggested algorithm, the resistive component of the leakage current can be found by integrating the total leakage current over only a half cycle of the line voltage, and it is realized by using analog switches and resettable integrators. It is confirmed through experiments that the suggested algorithm detects, within maximum average error of 6.74%, the resistive leakage current from the total leakage current, and the RCD employing the suggested algorithm brakes the circuit within the regular interrupt time(30msec).

This paper deals with an effective installation method of lightning protective devices for information and communication facilities. Due to the potential difference between grounding of the AC power lines and communication lines, the equipments connected to the communication lines are easily damaged by lightning surges. So we have examined the behaviors of surge protective devices against lightning surges from the AC power lines and signal lines, and the coordination effects of SPD installation method were investigated. As a result, it was confirmed that the bypass arrester method and common grounding method were very effected.

This paper deals with the dead operation characteristics of the earth leakage circuit breaker(ELB) caused by impulse voltages. The surge protective devices for electronic circuit and AC power lines are becoming more widely used. It is possible to give rise to the malfunction of ELB due to the operation of surge protective devices, and the interruption of AC power lines brings about several disadvantages such as low reliability of electronic and informational systems, economical loss, and etc. The dead operation characteristics of the ELB from impulse voltages were measured under the conditions of KS C 4613 and the test circuit with a varistor. As a result, the peak current value of the zero-phase sequence circuit of the ELB is increased as the surge voltage and stray capacitance increase. All of the ELBs used in this work were satisfied with the lightning impulse dead operation test condition defined in KS C 4613. However one specimen only did not cause dead operation in the condition of the test circuit with a varistor. There is high possibility that a large portion of the ELBs connected with the AC power lines having the surge protective devices bring about the dead operation.
