In this paper, the effects of the position and the angle of the potential probes on the measurements of the ground resistance using the fall-of-potential method are described and the testing techniques for minimizing the measuring errors are proposed. The fall-of-potential method is theoretically based on the potential and current measuring principle and the measuring error is primarily caused by the position and angle of auxiliary probes. In order to analyze the relative error in the measured value of the ground resistance due to the position of the potential probe, the ground resistance was measured for the case in which the distance of the current probe was fixed at 50[m] and the distance of the potential probe was located from 10[m] to 50[m]. Also, the potential probe was located in turn at $30[^{\circ}]$, $45[^{\circ}]$, $60[^{\circ}]$, $90[^{\circ}]$, and $180[^{\circ}]$. As a consequence, relative error decreased with increasing distance of the potential probe and decreasing angle between the current probe and potential probe. The results could help to determine the position of the potential probe during the ground resistance measurement.

In this paper, We analyzed the current-voltage characteristics with n-type silicon substrates concentration and temperature variations (Room temperature, 50$^{\circ}C$, 75$^{\circ}C$) in platinum silicide and silicon junction. The electrical parameters of measurement are turn-on voltage, saturation current, ideality factor, barrier height, dynamic resistance in forward bias and reverse breakdown voltage according to variations of junction concentration of substrates and measurement temperature variations. As a result, the forward turn-on voltage, reverse breakdown voltage, barrier height and dynamic resistance were decreased but saturation currents and ideality factor were increased by substrates increased concentration variations in platinum silicide and n-silicon junction. In increased measurement temperature (RT, 50$^{\circ}C$, 75$^{\circ}C$), the extracted electrical parameter values of characteristics were rises by increased temperature variations according to the forward and reverse bias.

Many people think that Electric Vehicles(EVs) is the best method to resolve the problems of running out of fossil fuels. But EVs take long time for charging. So, EVs with battery swapping systems(EVBS) are developed to resolve this problem. Nonetheless, EVBS is not spreaded widely because the method of durability test in couplers is not defined. In this study, the evaluation method of durability test in couplers is defined by some standards and the measurement uncertainty is used to increase the reliability of EV couplers.

In this study, S food manufacturing business located in Chungbuk was selected as the subject, and the transition in insulation resistance in major electrical equipment used in this food manufacturing business was analyzed for 4 years (2018-2021). It was confirmed that the insulation resistance decreased over time for all 18 electrical facilities. Insulation resistance changed due to environmental influences such as load characteristics and ambient temperature. Particularly in the case of the food manufacturing industry, it was confirmed that the decrease started after 2 years, although it varied depending on equipment and environmental influences. Furthermore, it was confirmed that management through predicting the management cycle of electrical equipment is possible by deriving a regression equation through regression analysis of insulation resistance measurement values.

수목의 활력도는 다양한 방법으로 측정한다. 수목의 형성층 전기저항은 전기생리학적 진단 방법을 이용하여 수목의 활력도를 간접적으로 나타낸다. 본 연구는 Shigometer를 이용하여 몇 가지 수목의 활력도를 측정하고 수종 간 차이를 비교하고자 하였다. 그리고 개엽 시기, 방위, 수피 온도 등 전기저항 값에 영향을 주는 요인들을 파악하고자 하였다. 측정용 탐침의 길이를 일정하게 유지하여 측정오차를 최소화하였다. 대상 수종은 성균관대학교 자연과학캠퍼스에 있는 30-40년생 느티나무, 은행나무, 메타세쿼이아, 잣나무 및 튜울립나무로 하였고 각 종당 3개체를 선정하였다. 측정 시기는 2011년 3월부터 5월까지, 지면으로부터 60 cm와 흉고높이인 1.2 m에서 동서남북 4개 방위 별로 전기저항 값을 측정하였다. 수목 부근의 토양환경과 식물의 스트레스 반응을 함께 측정하였다. 측정 결과를 바탕으로 전기저항과 영향 요인과의 상관관계를 살펴보았다. 개엽 시기 이전인 3월 중순까지는 대체적으로 전기저항 값이 높았으나 4월부터 점차 낮아지기 시작하여 5월 11일에는 가장 낮은 값을 보였다. 전기저항 값의 시기별 변화는 토양수분, 토양전도도, 토양온도, 수목의 스트레스 반응과 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 잣나무의 경우 겨울에도 잎이 떨어지지 않아 측정 기간 동안 전기저항 값의 변화는 크기 않았다. 느티나무, 은행나무 및 메타세쿼이아는 남쪽 방향의 수피 온도가 다른 방위에 비하여 높았으며 전기저항 값은 가장 낮았다. Shigometer는 수목의 활력도를 현장에서 간단하게 측정함으로써 수목 관리에 유용하게 이용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Both ratio error and phase angle error in voltage transformer(VT) depend on values of burden of VT used. A method of evaluation for linearity of ratio error and phase angle error in VT measurement equipment have been developed using the standard resistance burdens, with negligible AC-DC resistance difference less than $10^-6$. These burden consists of five standard resistors, with nominal resistance of 100 $\Omega$, 1 k$\Omega$, 10 k$\Omega$, 100 k$\Omega$, and 1 M$\Omega$. The developed method has been applied in VT measurement equipment of industry and the validity of the developed method has been verified by showing the consistency of the result of linearity obtained using VT with wide ratio error.

This paper proposes a novel test circuit for SiC transistors. On-state resistance under practical application conditions is an important characteristic for the device reliability and conduction efficiency of SiC transistors. In order to measure the on-state resistance in practical applications, high voltage is needed, and high current is also necessary to ignite performance for the devices. A soft-switching circuit based on synchronous buck topology is developed in this paper. To provide high-voltage and high-current stresses for the devices without additional spikes and oscillations, a resonant circuit has been introduced. Using the novel circuit technology, soft-switching can be successfully realized for all the switches. Furthermore, in order to achieve accurate measurement of on-state resistance under switching operations, an active clamp circuit is employed. Operation principle and design analysis of the circuit are discussed. The dynamic measurement method is illustrated in detail. Simulation and experiments were carried out to verify the feasibility of the circuit. A special test circuit has been developed and built. Experimental results confirm that the proposed circuit gives a good insight of the devices performance in real applications.

배터리를 사용함에 따라 노화가 진행되면 배터리의 충전 가능 용량을 나타내는 State of Health(SoH)가 줄어들게 된다. 배터리 모니터링 시스템(BMS)에서 SoH를 추정하는 것이 매우 중요하며, 이를 위해 배터리 내부 저항을 측정하는 방법이 많이 사용된다. 일반적으로 배터리에 특정한 주파수의 전류원을 인가하고 전압응답을 측정하여 내부저항을 연산한다. 충전기가 동작할 경우 전압응답에 충전 고조파 잡음이 발생하여 저항 측정의 정확도가 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 충전잡음의 영향을 제거하기 위하여 강인한 배터리 내부저항 측정 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 전류원 신호와 전압응답 신호를 일정한 주기 동안 적분하여 잡음을 제거하는 방법으로 우수한 정확도와 안정된 연산결과를 보였다. 무정전 전원장치용 BMS에 적용하여 제안한 방법의 유용함을 입증하였다.

This paper presents numerical analysis of measurement errors of ground electrode using the fall-of-potential method. In order to analyze ground resistance error according to the positions of auxiliary probes, firstly, national and international standards were researched. Secondly, numerical ground resistance error of hemispheric electrode was analyzed according to the locations of auxiliary probes and the angle between probes. Then, error-reduced positions of auxiliary probes were shown according to the distance to auxiliary current probe versus ground electrode size. Finally, error compensation method was presented. The results presented in this paper provide useful information regarding ground resistance error of alternative positions of auxiliary probes in case that the auxiliary probes could not be located at the proper position in such cases as there are buildings, roadblock or underground metallic pipe at that position.
