The dynamic analysis of stability in industrial power system is an important subject. In this paper, the effect of voltage dips for short duration (short-circuit) in the utility system on generators, synchronous motors of the industrial plant and the measures to be adopted to reduce the undesired effects of voltage dips re investigated. In the case of utility three-phase short-circuits of longer duration, both the generators and synchronous motors in the plant may become unstable. In order to avoid instability through fault clearing in the second zone time a decoupling device is necessary. The instability of voltage can be avoided with a well suited setting time of disconnecting device and load trip.

Granitoid rocks are generally high-quality rock from a geotechnical perspective, because they rarely contain systematic joints or fragmented fault zones. Although the rock type at the Sanhak site is granite, a collapsed slope has a deep soil layer and shows no residual structures such as discontinuities or faults; surface avalanches from this slope can be observed in several places. To study the stability of this slope, we investigated rainfall duration, variation in pore-water pressure, and the factor of safety considering three cases (current cross-section, initial planning cross-section, revised planning cross-section). With increasing duration of rainfall, the groundwater level rises, up to 20 m in height from ground surface. In the initial planning cross-section, safety was secure for rainfall of 2 days duration, but inadequate for rainfall of 4 days duration. In the revised planning cross-section, however, safety factors were secure for rainfall of 4 days duration. Therefore, to ensure permanent stability at the Sanhak site, a slope degree of 1:1.8 should be maintained during cutting.

The software reliability is defined, and not only the relations between testing time and reliability, but also the relation between duration following failure fixing and reliability are studied in this paper. The release time making the testing cost to be minimum is determined through evaluating the cost for each condition. Also, the release time is determined depending on the conditions of the first reliability, considering the specified reliability. The optimum release time is determined by simultaneously studying two optimum release time issues that determine both the cost related time and the specified reliability related time. And, each condition and limitation are studied. The trend of the optimum time is also examined.

To improve the safety of facilities and human beings when the ground fault occurs, public power utility prescribes the reasonable ground resistances, measures and controls the ground resistance of all the ground electrodes biennially. Concerning the safety of human, there are two safety criteria widely accepted, i.e. the IEEE Std 80-2000 and the IEC 479-1:1994. The IEEE Std 80-2000 is based on a simplified electric shock model usually translated into permissible touch and step voltages. The IEC 479-1:1994 is less specific than IEEE Std 80-2000 for analysis purpose. The IEC 479-1:1994 provides values of permissible body current against electric shock duration. This paper provides a technical study of these two standards to analyze the safety of human beings of ground electrodes developed recently for distribution power system.

초전도 한류기의 회복특성은 상전도 상테로 ��치된 초전도체가 다시 초전도 상태로 회복하는 시간을 나타내는 특성이다. 이러한 분석은 전력계통 내의 각종 시스템과의 보호협조를 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 $1{\times}3$구조를 갖는 삼상 매트릭스형 초전도 한류기를 구성하여 3선 지락사고의 주기에 따른 초전도체의 회복특성을 분석 하였다. 사고 주기가 작아질수록 초전도체의 회복시간은 짧아진다는 것을 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 이는 사고 주기가 작을수록 초전도체가 받는 열에너지가 작아 회복시간도 작아진다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This paper describes the experimental results of a transient impedance characteristics of grounding rods to a square pulse and standard lightning impulse current. The test were performed on single grounding rod($\phi$ 10mm, 1m) and triple-grounding rods( $\phi$ 10mm, 1m) of equilateral triangles with 5m spacing. For measurements of transient impedance, a pulse generator which can produce square wave of 30ns rise time and 20U Pulse duration was designed and fabricated. In the experiment, transient impedance of the grounding systems have been investigated from the recorded potential and current waveforms. The results showed that the value of the transient impedance is quite higher than the stationary resistance, and provide useful information for the value of a grounding system considered transient characteristics under a high frequency condition such as lightning stokes and ground-fault.

This paper studies the effects caused by symmetrical and unsymmetrical voltage sags on three-phase transformer and induction machine. The voltage sag on transformer and induction machine gives rise to inrush current. This inrush current makes sag more severe. These effects depend or many elements such as sag magnitude and duration, type of sag, and fault and recovery voltage instants.

Distributed Control System has been used for large scale and critical system control such as aerospace industries, chemical and power plant and so on. It is very impotant factors for design of the control system to be reliable and fault-tolerant. These control systems have backup or redundant processing modules for minimizing the time of failure and improving reliability. But such methods have changeover duration from faulty module to healthy one. During that interval, feedback control loop raises bumper and performance of the system become worse. TMR(Triple Modular Redundancy) control system is one of the best reliable ones that can overcome such a mortal drawback. This paper analyzes the components of TMR system functionally and proposes practical and cost effective configuration method for turbine control of thermal power plant.

This paper analyzed distribution network reliability related with the increment of outages and duration time according to distribution facilities increasing. KEPCO introduced distribution automation system in 1998 which could recognize outage section by remotely monitoring the fault current and reduce the blackout area by remotely controlling distribution switches. As the result of this outage time reduction using distribution automation system, the minimum distribution automation rate was fined out in this paper on the base of analyzing diverse data and how many switches were used in distribution system to improve distribution network reliability at the situation of distribution facilities increasing. This result can be used as the model that an overseas utility company applies distribution automation system in the future.
