According to the increasing power demand for the future construction of many underground cables will be required. However, construction of new ducts for power cables will be more difficult. Therefore, research work for realizing the high temperature superconducting(HTS) cable has advanced, where the development of electrical insulating system at cryogenic temperature is one of the major researches. For an electrical insulation design of HTS cable, it is important to understand not only breakdown but also partial discharge and dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system. In this paper, we investigated breakdown characteristics in liquid nitrogen/paper composite insulation system for the application to HTS cable. And, we studied the breakdown characteristics of the multi-layer and butt gap of the insulation papers in liquid nitrogen. Also, we measured dielectric loss($tan{\delta}$) of the mini-model Cable made of TERLAM IPP.

Insulation diagnostic tests for high voltage motor stator winding were conducted to analyze the insulation characteristics. Test motors were manufactured same factory and year(1996). Insulation characteristics of moisture winding are different from those of deteriorative winding. Insulation resistance and disscipation factor test results are sensitive to moisture winding. AC current, disscipation factor tip-up and PD test results are sensitive to deteriorative winding. Also, Capacitance value for stator winding insulation material has characteristic of increasing in moisture winding.

This paper present the fundamental insulation characteristics of Dry Air gas and insulation coating in high voltage power apparatus. It is known that the dielectric strength. of Dry Air is approximately one-third that of SF6 gas. we attempt that the insulation coating and dry air gas have replaced the SF6 gas as insulation of the switchgear. We proposed the dry air insulated switchgear(DAIS) for High Voltage apparatus. To acquire technology of insulation characteristic improvement made standards for complex insulation structure and conducted simulations and experiments

Traction motors driven by high speed switching inverters is demanded higher operating temperature, severe duty cycles, higher starting current, frequent voltage transients and finally severe environmental exposure. For applications to inverter duty, traction motors needs a special insulation system, which has characteristics of increased bond strength, lower operating temperature and higher turn-to-turn insulation. In this paper, design considerations and manufacturing procedure of 200 Class insulation system with polyimde(Kapton) main insulation and silicone resin VPI process on the traction motor for EMU will be reviewed. And performance test and long life evaluation test which prove stability and long life evaluation test which prove stability and reliability of insulation system for traction motor will be introduced.

Reduction of insulation thickness would be beneficial not only for increasing the cable length but would also improve its thermal performance. An interfacial diffusion method was devised to reduce insulation thickness by improving the interfacial properties of XLPE cable insulation. In this paper, to evaluate superficially the interface properties between XLPE insulation and semiconducting layer, the dielectric and insulation properties of tan${\delta}$ and volume resistance were measured with temperature dependence. Above the results, dielectirc and insulation properties with semiconductor/XLPE were more anormal than its bulk caused by the interfacial properties.

Insulation aging diagnosis system provides early warning in regard to electrical equipment defects. Early warning is very important in that it can avoid great losses resulting from unexpected shutdown of the production line. For solving this problem, many researchers proposed a method that diagnose power plant by using partial discharge. In this paper, we design the intelligent sensor to diagnose insulation degradation state that uses a Microprocessor and Al. Proposed sensor has MCU that is used to diagnose insulation degradation and communicate with main IDD system. And we use a fuzzy model to diagnose insulation degradation.

In this paper, breakdown strength and dielectric characteristics were experimented in the structures of insulation/insulation/insulation and insulation/semiconductor/insulation by using of insulation material of polyethylene terephthalate film. The breakdown strength and the permitivity of each specimen were measured as a function of temperature and frequency respectively. The breakdown strength of PET/PET/PET did not changed greatly but that of PET/SEMl/PEr increased as a function of temperature. As the frequency inclosed, the permitivity of PET/PET/PET and PET/SEMI/PET decreased. The tan $\delta$ of PET/PET/PET showed lower than that of PET/SEMl/PET in low frequency but higher in high frequency .

The paper investigates the insulation properties of the supercritical $CO_2$ ($SCCO_2$) fluid as an insulating medium for electrical apparatuses. The insulating material is crucial for electrical apparatuses and $SF_6$ gas has been widely used for high power electrical apparatuses. There have been many research efforts to develop substituents for $SF_6$ gas because of high global warming potential. We obtained above 350 kV/mm insulation strength with 12.0 MPa $SCCO_2$. The positive and negative IEC standard pulses are applied between two 10 mm diameter spherical electrodes. The insulation strength of $SCCO_2$ is at least 2.5 times higher than that of $CO_2$ gas at 6.0MPa. The insulation strength of $SCCO_2$ fluid is about 10 times higher than that of $SF_6$ at 0.5MPa which is the ordinary operating pressure of electrical switchgears. Using the result, we expect that the time for switching and dielectric recovery could be reduced using $SCCO_2$ fluid as an insulating medium.

This paper presents a novel spring pressure contact interconnect technique for medium power integrated power electronics modules (IPEMs). The key technology of this interconnection is a spring which is made from Be-Cu alloy. By means of the string pressure contact, sufficient press-contact force and good electrical interconnection can be achieved. Another important advantage is that the spring exhibits excellent performance in enduring thermo-mechanical stress. In terms of manufacture procedure, it is also comparatively simple. A 4 kW half-bridge power inverter module is fabricated to demonstrate the performance of the proposed pressure contact technique. Electrical, thermal and mechanical test results of the packaged device are reported. The results of both the simulation and experiment have proven that a good performance can be achieved by the proposed pressure contact technique for the medium power IPEMs.

For insulation design of the superconducting transformer, many types of insulation tests should be carried out. To clarify the components of insulation for superconducting transformer, there are main four parts as 1ike that turn-to-turn interior of each primary and secondary windings, layer-to-layer between primary and secondary windings, and winding to grounded structures. The insulation components should meet the required withstand voltage of the system and enough safety factors must included. As the fundamental insulation characteristics, we tested surface flashover voltage of spacer that would place between the coils and would take the role of both cooling duct and insulator. The structure of spacer in practice vary depending on coil type, in this work we considered double pancake coil for the superconducting transformer. In this study we tested flashover voltages of several arrangement of spacer.
