This paper is part of an ongoing project of KEPCO; 'A Study on Criteria and Standards for Transmission System Planning', The objective of this project is to develop the standards and procedures for transmission system planning. This involves reviewing published literatures, other documents of existing criteria and procedures, and various case studies of advanced countries which are already under the competitive electricity industry. This paper presents the result of evaluating Korean Power System as a pre-study for developing the Planning Standards of Korean Power System. For this, WSCC/NERC's performance criteria for planning transmission system, and KEPCO's 'Long Term Transmission System Planning Criteria' are considered. By doing this, the level of performance criteria which should be applied to Korean Power System and the detailed procedures which would be used in system test were reviewed.

Electrodeless fluorescent lamps don't have standards yet. So we study applicable standards of electrodeless fluorescent lamps and analyze evaluation items and test method. Then we will use this paper basic information of standards.

A system is designed and fabricated for the automatic low temperature calibration by comparison of industrial resistance thermometers. The cryostat is suitable for the calibration of four capsule type thermometers and four long stem thermometers. By the automatic temperature control of the cryostat, we could calibrate thermometers from $-200^{\circ}C$ to $0^{\circ}C$ for ${\sim}15$ hours by one fill of liquid nitrogen in the test run of the system. The uncertainty of the calibration for industrial platinum resistance thermometers using the automatic system is about 30mK with a 95.% confidence interval.

New approach is developed employing the overall uncertainty obtained from multiple measurements to evaluate the statistical significance for the difference between a given reference value and its measured value determined in a lab. The overall uncertainty is determined by separate combinations of the uncertainties arising from systematic and random effects. It is shown that the uncertainty term in regular t-test can be underestimated by n measurements.

Objective: Little is known about the effects of using different expert-determined reference standards when evaluating the performance of deep learning-based automatic detection (DLAD) models and their added value to radiologists. We assessed the concordance of expert-determined standards with a clinical gold standard (herein, pathological confirmation) and the effects of different expert-determined reference standards on the estimates of radiologists' diagnostic performance to detect malignant pulmonary nodules on chest radiographs with and without the assistance of a DLAD model. Materials and Methods: This study included chest radiographs from 50 patients with pathologically proven lung cancer and 50 controls. Five expert-determined standards were constructed using the interpretations of 10 experts: individual judgment by the most experienced expert, majority vote, consensus judgments of two and three experts, and a latent class analysis (LCA) model. In separate reader tests, additional 10 radiologists independently interpreted the radiographs and then assisted with the DLAD model. Their diagnostic performance was estimated using the clinical gold standard and various expert-determined standards as the reference standard, and the results were compared using the t test with Bonferroni correction. Results: The LCA model (sensitivity, 72.6%; specificity, 100%) was most similar to the clinical gold standard. When expert-determined standards were used, the sensitivities of radiologists and DLAD model alone were overestimated, and their specificities were underestimated (all p-values < 0.05). DLAD assistance diminished the overestimation of sensitivity but exaggerated the underestimation of specificity (all p-values < 0.001). The DLAD model improved sensitivity and specificity to a greater extent when using the clinical gold standard than when using the expert-determined standards (all p-values < 0.001), except for sensitivity with the LCA model (p = 0.094). Conclusion: The LCA model was most similar to the clinical gold standard for malignant pulmonary nodule detection on chest radiographs. Expert-determined standards caused bias in measuring the diagnostic performance of the artificial intelligence model.

In this study, to determine whether it is possible to apply Polyethylene (PE) compound pipe, which was developed to solve the problem caused by the corrosion of the fire protection piping currently in usein water based fire extinguishing systems, we performed an actual mockup fire test. Since no test standard was available related to the developed compound pipe, we compared and analyzed domestic and international technical materials and test standards and selected suitable fire test standards to evaluate the performance of the PE compound pipe. we applied two fire test standards to the PE compound pipe, viz. those for CPVC and metallic pipes, and conducted a total of 6 experiments to evaluate its performance. According to the results of the first and second fire tests based on the test standard for the CPVC pipe, neither the fitting nor the piping was damaged or deformed and no leakage was observed in the pressure test, which was performed for 5 minutes. For the fire test based on the metallic pipe test standard, a total of 4 experiments were conducted. The first two experiments were conducted to simulate the wet piping system. In the results of this fire test, neither leakage nor rupture was observed from the PE compound pipe and no damage was caused, such as the secession of the PE material. However, in the next two experiments, which simulated the dry system, the PE compound pipe suffered damage and rupture, including deformation before the fire fighting water was discharged. Therefore, we found that the piping performance of the PE compound pipe did not undergo any deterioration, including fusion, deformation, or damage, in the wet piping system simulated fire test.

Indentation and small punch tests are very powerful methods to monitor the materials reliability since they are very simple, easy and almost non-destructive. First, recently-developed continuous indentation test can provide the more material properties such as hardness, elastic modulus, yield strength, work-hardening exponent, etc., than the conventional hardness test. In our study, the true stress-strain curve was derived from the indentation load-depth curve for spherical indentation. In detail, the strain was able to be obtained from plastic depth/contact radius ratio, and the flow stress was from mean contact pressure through the analysis of elastic-plastic indentation stress field. Secondly, the small punch test was studied to evaluate the fracture toughness and defomation properties such as elastic modulus and yield strength. Like the indentation test, this test can be applied without severe damage of the target structure.

Two test standards to be applied for evaluating shielding effectiveness of HEMP protection facilities, MIL-STD-188-125-1 and IEEE std. 299, provide different test results in spite of the same facility. In particular, at the frequency range of 10 kHz~20 MHz, it is confirmed that the test results by the IEEE Std. 299 are about 20~30 dB lower than the evaluated results by MIL-STD-188-125-1. These results are due to the different measurement conditions specified in the two test standards. Therefore, IEEE Std. 299 can be applied for the shortening of test distance, but the required SE performance based on MIL-STD-188-125-1 must be modified.
