In this work, a novel hybrid FL sensor consisting of two Rogowski coils has been designed for the installation on the ground wire of the transmission tower. The operation range of these coils is as follows: 30kA for the fault current comingfrom the ground fault or short-circuit and for the lightning current up to 150kA over 500kHz. Thus, two important functions could be provided: one is to detect the fault current and the other one is to find the fault location between towers or the location of induced lightning stroke. The on-site investigation at 800kV test yard has been under progress for its on-site application.

Cast-resin transformers are widely installed in various electrical power systems because of their low operating cost and low influence on external environmental factors. However, when they have an internal defect during the manufacturing process or operation, a partial discharge (PD) occurs, and eventually destroys the insulation. In this paper, a Rogowski-type PD sensor was studied to replace commercial PD sensors used for the insulation diagnosis of power apparatus. The proposed PD sensor was manufactured with four different types of PCB-based winding structures, and it was analyzed in terms of the detection characteristics for standard calibration pulses and the changes of the output voltage according to the distance. The output increased linearly in accordance with the applied discharge amount. It was confirmed that the hexagon structure sensor had the highest sensitivity, because the winding cross-sectional area of the sensor was larger than others. In addition, as the distance from the defect increased, the output voltage of the sensors decreased by 7.32% on average. It was also confirmed that the attenuation rate according to the distance decreased as the input discharge amount increased. For the application of this new type sensor, PD electrode system was designed to simulate the void defect. Waveforms and PRPD patterns measured by the proposed PD sensors at DIV and 120% of DIV were the same as the results measured by MPD 600 based on IEC 60270. The proposed PD sensors can be installed on the inner wall of the transformer tank by coating its surfaces with a non-conductive material; therefore, it is possible to detect internal defects more effectively at a closer distance from the defect than the conventional sensors.

This paper describes a current sensor for precision current measurement of an electronic watt-hour meter that is going to install in houses in the future. As the current sensor is based on an cored principle (the Rogowski principle) it is not subject to usual limitations of saturation and non-linearity of general current transformers. An advantage of the developed current sensor is that non-linearity error in low current range is improved and the construction can be kept simple using an air core. We present a magnetic field analysis of the sensor using a finite-element solver. We compared the measured values versus the calculated values.

전류에 의한 자속변화를 검출하는 로고스키코일은 자성체를 코어로 이용하는 종전의 변류기 (Current Transformer) 와는 달리 공심이거나 비자성재료를 사용하기 때문에 자기적으로 포화되지 않으므로 일반적으로 디지털 적산 전력량계의 전류센서로 활용되고 있다. 본 연구는 저온소성 다층 세라믹 기판상에 로고스키코일을 적용한 전자식 전력량계의 정밀 전류측정용 센서 개발에 관한 것이며. 3차원 전자기장 해석 프로그램인 MWS를 하여 기판의 소재와 코일의 패턴의 크기 등을 달리하여 그 특성을 알아보고 실제 구현된 센서의 측정된 값과 비교해 보았다.

In the distribution networks, it is necessary to develop small and light voltage and current sensor for compact and digitalized switchgears. For this purpose, some researches have been continuing till now, CT(current transformer) and VT(voltage transformer) are one of that research. But conventional CT and VT have some problems, that is, have big size and saturation characteristics because of used to iron core. In this paper, CS(current sensor) and VS(voltage sensor), have some merits measuring of current and voltage magnitude as a alternated conventional equipment, were studied. So, this paper shows the process CS and VS design method, equivalent circuit and output result, respectively. As a result of this test, proposed CS and VS have linearity for the output, no saturation.

In this study, a ubiquitous sensor for condition monitoring of insulators and lightning arresters installed in power distribution lines and electric traction vehicles is presented. The sensor consists of two parts; a leakage current measurement and a lightning surge detection. Measured data are transmitted to a supervisory computer through ZigBee protocol based on IEEE 802.15.4. To detect leakage current, a window type Mn-ZCT is used and a low-noise amplifier with a gain of 60dB is designed, and this can measure leakage current in ranges of $100{\mu}A{\sim}5mA$. A sample-hold(S/H) and a Rogowski coil are injected to analyze the magnitude of surge current in ranges from 500A to 10kA with $8/20{\mu}s$-waveform.

Recently, ubiquitous sensor network(USN) techniques have been applied to electric power facility management. This paper dealt with the designed and fabricated ubiquitous sensors which monitor transformers and lightning arresters installed in overhead distribution systems. The sensors consist of a 8-[bit] microprocessor unit, a wireless communication nodule specified in IEEE 802.15.4, and associated electronics. A Rogowski coil was fabricated to measure load of transformer and surge current without saturation having good linearity up to 1000[A]. A zero-phase current transformer with a high relative permeability of $10^5$ at 180[Hz] was used to detect small leakage current of $50[{\mu}A]{\sim}1[mA]$ flowing lightning arrester, and the frequency bandwidth of the module is ranges from 12[Hz] to 1.24[kHz] at -3[dB].
