The operational cost for maintaining the superconductivity of high-temperature superconducting (HTS) cables needs to be reduced for feasible operation. It depends on factors such as AC loss and heat transfer from the outside. Effective operation requires design optimization and suitable operational conditions. Generally, it is known that critical currents increase and AC losses decrease as the operational temperature of liquid nitrogen ($LN_2$) is lowered. However, the cryo-cooler consumes more power to lower the temperature. To determine the effective operational temperature of the HTS cable while considering the critical current and AC loss, critical currents of the HTS cable conductor were measured under various temperature conditions using sub-cooled $LN_2$ by Stirling cryo-cooler. Next, AC losses were measured under the same conditions and their variations were analyzed. We used the results to select suitable operating conditions while considering the cryo-cooler's power consumption. We then recommended the effective operating temperature for the HTS cable system installed in an actual power grid in KEPCO's 154/22.9 kV transformer substation.

Crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) insulated cables are now widely used all over the world for extra-high voltage underground transmission systems. Prefabricated type (compression type) joint has developed in order to shorten the assembly time and lower the possibility of contamination at site by many companies in the world. For outdoor termination, to control the electric field distribution as uniform as possible, especially for the use of extra-high voltage system. much of products are adopting the oil-impregnated condensor cone type instead of electric field control element which uses the permitivity of it only (not capacitance). For Gas-immersed termination, dimension of outer insulation bushing was determined by IEC Publication 859. The highest voltage of underground power cable system is 345kV now, in Korea. We have much of experiences of the development of prefabricated type accessories for CV cable systems (154kV, 161kV, 230kV level). So it was possible to inspect the proto type of accessories for 345kV CV cable system and seems that the need time for the development of products is reduced.

In recent the XLPE cable has been applied more widely because of its advantages, such as the low-cost and simple installation. For a prefabricated joint, its working time is short, its jointing procedures aγe simple, and its quality control is easy. Electrical performance targets of our developed 66kV cable accessories has been approved through the type test in accordance with IEC publication 840. This paper describes the developmental effort in terms of the design, structure and results of performance verification tests for 66kV XLPE cable system.

전 세계적으로 송전 용량의 증대 요구에 따라 송전 시스템이 초고압화 되어 가고 있으며 환경친화성 및 여러 특성에 있어 OF(Oii filled) 케이블에 비하여 우수한 성능을 지닌 XLPE(Crosslinked Polyethylene) 케이블의 사용이 급속하게 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 최근 345kV급 이상의 XLPE 케이블 시스템 개발이 해외 선진업체들에 의해 활발히 진행되고 있으며 이의 평가를 해외공인 인증기관에서 수행하여 개발된 제품의 디자인 검증 및 장기간 신뢰성을 입증하고 있다. 이러한 추세에 맞추어 LG 전선은 400kV 케이블 및 접속함의 사내 개발시험후 해외공인 인증기관인 네덜란드의 KEMA에서 IEC 62067에 따른 인증시험을 완료하여 개발된 제품의 높은 신뢰성을 인증 받았으며, 자사의 초고압 기술을 한 단계 상승시켜 세계 선진업체들과 경쟁할 수 있는 발판을 마련하였다.
