This paper describes the optimal design, construction and performance evaluation of voltage divider used in high power testing laboratory for voltage measuring system. These dividers, which are of R, C, R&C type voltage dividers, the voltage to be measured range from voltage to several ten kilovolts, the frequency of the signals has a bandwidth from DC to megaHertz Measuring transient voltage and currents in the high voltage power laboratory is generally accompanied by electromagnetic interface and induced noise. above all, the measuring capabilities of voltage measuring system are dependent upon short response time and it must be as free as possible of inductive effects. In this paper presents both characteristic of voltage divider and design of voltage measuring system.

In order to substitute for the conventional measuring system which could bring about technical inconveiences, measuring techniques for the fast transient high voltage upto 100 kV and small signals less than 1 V are developed by use of Laser Source with Packets cell. for the former, capacitive voltage divider was specially designed for reducing the impulse voltage less than the half-wave voltage of pockets cell. For the tatter, interferometer type was employed as a mean to removing the fluctuation of Laser output intensity. And also the main beam through the Pockels cell and the reference beam from the Laser source are seperated before being detected respectively by photo diodes. And then, these two signals are amplified and compared for detecting only the small signals applied across the Pockels cell. Throughout this work, Laser-based measuring system is likely to enable us, at this moment, to detect correctly lightning impulse voltage upto 100 kV and the small signals less than 1 V upto the 2 MHz. Such a system could be employed as a possible diagnostic measuring system at the substation.

An improved, accurate and reliable high-voltage measuring system utilizing a bushing-type capacitor is proposed in this study. This system measures voltages and phase angles of three-phase 22.9 kV power distribution lines and provides enough current to charge a battery for a motor-driven load switch and to operate the measuring and communication circuits for the distribution automation. For reliability, epoxy resin was used as the dielectric material of the bushing-type capacitor since the dielectric strength of epoxy resin is very stable over the wide range of temperature. Capacitances were investigated and found to be stable over the wide range of temperature and applied voltage, and the results indicate that the proposed measurement system is very reliable.

DC urban railway power system consists of DC power network and AC power network. The DC power network supplies electric power to railway vehicles and the AC power network supplies electric power to station electric equipment. Recently, because of power consumption reduction and peak load shaving, intelligent measurement of regenerative energy and renewable energy adapted on DC urban railway is required. For this reason, DC smart metering system for DC power network shall be developed. Therefore, in this paper, DC voltage sensor, current sensor, and DC smart meter were developed and evaluated by performance test. DC voltage sensor was developed for measuring standard voltage range of DC urban railway, and DC current sensor was developed as hall effect split core type in order to install in existing system. DC smart meter possesses function of general intelligent electric power meter, such as measuring electricity and wireless communication etc. And, DC voltage sensor showed average 0.17% of measuring error for 2,000V/50mA, and current sensor showed average 0.21% of measuring error for ${\pm}2,000V/{\pm}4V$ in performance test. Also DC smart meter showed maximum 0.92% of measuring error for output of voltage sensor and current sensor. In similar environment for real DC power network, measuring error rate was under 0.5%. In conclusion, accuracy of DC smart metering system was confirmed by performance test, and more detailed performance will be verified by further real operation DC urban railway line test.

In a low-voltage distribution system, the molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) is a widely used device to protect loads by interrupting over-current; however the hot gas generated from the arc discharge in the interrupting process depletes the dielectric recovery strength between electrodes and leads to re-ignition after current-zero. Even though the circuit breaker is ordinarily tripped and successfully interrupts the over-current, the re-ignition causes the over-current to flow to the load again, which carries over the failure interruption. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the dielectric recovery process and the dielectric recovery voltage of the MCCB. To determine these characteristics, a measuring system comprised of the experimental circuit and source is implemented to apply controllable recovery voltage and over-current. By changing the controllable recovery voltage, in this work, re-ignition is driven repeatedly to obtain the dielectric recovery voltage V-t curve, which is used to analyze the dielectric recovery strength of the MCCB. A measuring system and an evaluation technique for the dielectric recovery strength of the MCCB are described. By using this system and method, the measurement to find out the dielectric recovery characteristics after current-zero for ready-made products is done and it is confirmed that which internal structure of the MCCB affects the dielectric recovery characteristics.

This paper proposes a new high-voltage measuring system that is able to provide current enough to charge a storage battery for a motor driving a load switch, and detect each phase voltage and phase angle in three phase distribution line accurately. In order to develop the reliable voltage measuring system we had designed and manufactured condenser-type bushing having good characteristics for temperature on account of using epoxy resin as dielectric material, and investigated the variation characteristics of capacitance via variation of applied voltage. The experiment results show that the proposed condenser has good characteristics to environmental changes.

To compare the lightning impulse measurement capabilities of high voltage laboratory, a lightning impulse voltage measuring system from HUT is circulated around the world. This paper presents test results after second round of this worldwide exercise. KERI's impulse voltage measuring system compared with the circulating reference measuring system from HUT at voltage levels of 80, 160, 240, 320 and 400 kV. Three impulse shapes were used, i.e. full smooth lightning impulse with both short (0.84 $\sim$ 0.95 ${\mu}s$) and long front (1.45 $\sim$ 1.56 ${\mu}s$), and chopped impulse with time to chopped impuse. Impulse peak value ($U_p$) and time parameters ($T_1$, $T_2$ and $T_c$) according to IEC 60060-1 were compared.
