In this study, The new type of loop antenna which detects the partial discharge was designed based on microstrip line technology. In diagnosis of power cable, partial discharge signal generally occurred at the frequency range lower than 100MHz because high frequency PD signals could be lost along the propagation path in the cable. The new type of loop antenna sensor has been studied by using Simulation software named CST microwave studio version 5.0. In partial discharge measuring experiments, commercial HFCT sensor was used as a reference sensor. Several experiments were made over HFCT sensor and loop antenna sensor in detection partial discharge on MV XLPE cable of 22.9kV. In this study, we have shown our loop antenna sensor can apply as a commercial HFCT sensor.

The system measuring the Partial discharge(PD) is very essential to investigate the hazard defects in the insulation systems of the high voltage engineering. We included two parts in this discussion; The proposed method of Foil Sensor Array and the normally used method m the practice. Firstly, it will be shown the improved sensitivity of our proposed FSA sensor compare with the existing normal foil sensor. And then, the linearity of detecting sensitivities of various kinds of FSA sensors such as $2{\times}2$, $2{\times}4$, $3{\times}3$ etc. using in our experiments, was shown. From the obtained results, we can see that FSA sensor is more sensitivity than normal foil sensor and the linear increment property of FSA sensitivities.

In this paper, the physical and volume resistivity properties of cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) for ultra-high voltage investigated due to temperature dependence, and the measurement of volume resistivity used to highmegohm meter is measured from 1 to 30 minutes when the each applied voltage, for example, DC 100[V], 250[V], 500[V] and 1000[V] is applied, according to the step voltage application method. From FT-IR spectrum as an analysis of physical properties, a strong absorption in wavenumbers 700 to 730[$cm^{-1}$ /], 1456[$cm^{-1}$ /] and 2700 to 3000 [$cm^{-1}$ /] observed by the methyl groups(CH$_2$). From the analysis of DSC, the crystalline melting points of the specimen observed in the temperature 60[$^{\circ}C$] and 106.58[$^{\circ}C$].

In this paper, each specimen blended at weight proportions of 80% HDPE to 20% EVA, 70% HDPE to 30% EVA, 60% HDPE to 40% EVA, and 50% HDPE to 50% EVA was manufactued respectively. FE-SEM, DSC and XRD analysis were carried out as the means of structural and chemical analysis. From the results of DSC and XRD analysis, the lower contents in blended specimens were, the higher melting temperature and crystallinity of main crystal were. It seems that the phenomena was attributes to themoplastic interpenetrating network effect(TPIPN) in which EVA having low melting point penetrated into HDPE. Also, from the decreasing tendeancy of melting point as a function of blend ration, it was confirmd that above resins have compatibility. The thermal and mechanical performance of proposed insulator were compared with conventional XLPE, main insulating material of CV cable. Also, validity was proved by superior and inferior factor respectively.

We will discussed this research which has included two parts. The proposed method of Foil Sensor Array(FSA) and the normally used method in the practice. Firstly, it will be shown the improved sensitivity of a FSA sensor, which is our aim, compare with the existing normal foil sensor. And then, the linearity of detecting sensitivities of various kinds of FSA sensors was shown. According to our experiments, we can see that FSA sensor is more sensitivity than normal foil sensor and the linear increment property of FSA sensitivities.

Degradation diagnosis of XLPE insulated URD cables was accomplished through out new method, which was to be analyzed by non-electrical experiments and synthesized by degradation points. To supplement this method, It was also carried out using several electrical analyses. Tan$\delta$ had commonly a different tendency by means oftemperature and frequency and also appeared higher at the outer part rather than innerpart of insulator. PD-q increased generally in proportion to the applied voltage andshowed regular patterns in relation to the thickness of insulator. Breakdown voltageswere measured and breakdown lifetimes were predicted appling for Weibull distribution function. As a result, breakdown lifetime in failure cables was shorter up to$\fraction one-third$ times than that in general cables. It was very available to estimate cable degradation using above method, but it needs further study on XLPE insulated URD cables in order to improve reliability.

The cross-linked polyethylene(herein after XLPE) insulated power cable emit the methane($CH_4$)gas in the course of chemical cross-linking process. The general stranded conductor easily discharge this methane gas through the gap of each stranded wires. But the special stranded conductor that filled with semi-conducting rubber compound to prevent water penetration which is applied to water proof type of cable(22.9kV CN/CV-W), disturb the methane gas emission. The pre-mold type cable joint shall be expanded gradually by emit of gas left in XLPE insulation. For example, sometimes the corona problem outbreak on a new power distribution line, resulted from the gap between the sleeve and semi-conductive layer of cable joint. If above mentioned problem especially happened on the way of operating. We have to shut down the line and try to discharge the methane gas in cable joint. In this point, we would like to explain the mechanism of methane gas & cable joint and our test result briefly. At last, we are pleased to introduce the solution for preventing reoccurrence of this problem.

This paper describes propagation characteristics obtained by considering semiconducting screen and cross-bonding in underground transmission cables. The semiconducting screen of power cable has effect on propagation characteristics including attenuation, velocity and surge impedance. However, it is very difficult to apply the semiconduction screen for EMTP model because of the number of conductors limitation. Therefore, CIGRE WG 21-05 proposed advanced insulation structure and analysis technique of simplified approach including inner and outer semiconducting screen. In this paper, the various propagation characteristics analyse using this structure and technique for 154kV XLPE $2000mm^2$ cable. The frequency independent model of EMTP CABLE PARAMETER is used for just pattern analysis of propagation characteristics. For exact data analysis, the frequency dependent model of J-marti is used for EMTP modeling. From these result, various propagation characteristics of 154kV XLPE $2000mm^2$ cable according to semi conducting screen consideration, frequency range, cable length and pulse width are analysed. In addition, in this paper, the effects of cross-bonding are also variously discussed according to cross-bonding methods, direct connection and impedance of lead cable.

현재 전세계적으로 170kV급 이하의 초고압 지중케이블 접속함으로 기존의 현장몰드방식의 TMJ(Tape Molded Joint)와 부품조립방식의 PJ(Prefabricated Joint)보다 조립시간이 짧고 작업자의 숙련도가 높지 않아 경제적이며, 유지보수에 장점을 가진 고무몰드 접속함(PMJ)이 채용되고 있으며, 이러한 추세는 적용 전압급이 점차 상승하면서 230kV급까지 그 비중이 늘어나고 있는 경향을 보이고 있다. 당사에서는 이러한 추세에 발맞추어 154kV급 고무몰드접속함의 개발 당시의 Silicone의 기초물성시험 DATA 획득, 고무몰드 UNIT 및 금형 설계 기술 확립과 접속 공법 개발의 경험을 바탕으로 230kV급 고무몰드접속함의 개발에 성공하였다.
