The most important object of grounding systems is to protect human being from electric shock. Touch and step voltages are measured to evaluate the performances of grounding systems. Dangerous voltages have been largely studied by the power frequency fault currents, on the other hand, the ground current containing the high frequency components and surge currents haven't been considered. Many attempts about the grounding impedances reported in these days show that the performance of the grounding systems in high frequency range is very different with the ground resistance. It is necessary to analyze the dangerous voltages formed by the ground currents containing high frequency components. In this paper, the ground surface potential rises near the vertical and horizontal grounding electrodes are measured at the frequency of 100[Hz], 30[kHz], and 100[kHz]. Dangerous voltages are investigated with the frequency-dependent grounding impedance. As a result, the ground surface potential rise is increased as the grounding impedance increases. Touch and step voltages near the grounding electrode whose impedance increases with the frequency are sharply raised.

Heat sink has been used to help an electrical device operate in normal temperature condition. But heat sink radiates unwanted electromagnetic wave, which may cause electromagnetic interference problem. A resistance loaded grounding technique is proposed to reduce electromagnetic wave radiation by a heat sink. Numerical simulations are accomplished to find optimal loading resistance. Also electromagnetic fields radiated by from a heat sink are measured and compared with the simulation results. The test results verify the usefulness of the proposed technique.

접지저항의 측정은 접지극의 성능을 정량적으로 평가하는 가장 일반적인 방법이며, 여러 측정방법 중 전위강하 법은 대형 접지극의 저항측정에 많이 이용되는 방법이다. 그러나 접지극의 크기에 비례하여 측정선 길이도 길어져야 하므로, 대규모 접지전각의 경우 현장여건상 충분한 길이의 측정선을 펼치기가 곤란한 경우가 있을 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 여러 개의 접지망이 상호 연결되어 대규모의 접지극 네트워크를 형성하고 있어 충분한 길이의 전위강하법 측정선을 펼치는 것이 현실적으로 어려운 경우에 전위강하법 측정결과의 해석방법을 제시한다. 사례연구로서 상부댐 접지극과 약 2(km) 떨어져 있는 스위치야드 접지극이 상호 연결된 대형 접지극망에서 전위강하법 측정곡선 및 해석사례를 기술하였다.

In order to mitigate the possible hazards from electric shock due to the touch and step voltages, the high resistivity material such as gravel is often spread on the earth's surface in substations. When the grounding electrode is installed in two-layer soil structures, the surface layer soil resistivity is different with the resistivity of the soil contacted with the grounding electrodes. The design of large-sized grounding systems is fundamentally based on assuring safety from dangerous voltages within a grounding grid area. The performance of the grounding system is evaluated by tolerable touch and step voltages. Since the floor surface conditions near equipment to be grounded are changed after a grounding system has been constructed, it may be difficult to determine the tolerable touch and step voltage criteria. In this paper, to propose an accurate and convenient method for evaluating the protective performance of grounding systems, the propriety of the method for evaluating the current flowing through the human body around on a counterpoise buried in two-layer soils is presented. As a result, it is reasonable that the grounding system performance would be evaluated by measuring and analyzing the current flowing through the human body based on dangerous voltages such as the touch or step voltages and the contact resistance between the ground surface and feet.

본 논문에서는 대지저항률과 매설지선의 길이 그리고 접지전류의 인가점에 따른 매설지선 접지임피던스의 주파수 의존성에 대하여 살펴보았다. 단일 구조와 2층 구조의 대지에 설치된 매설지선의 접지임피던스를 1[kHz]에서 10[MHz]의 주파수 범위에서 측정하고 분석하였다. 그 결과, 접지임피던스의 주파수 의존성은 대지저항률에 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으며, 그리고 높은 대지저항률의 대지에 설치된 매설지선의 접지임피던스는 수십 [kHz] 이하의 주파수에서 용량성 특성을 나타내었다. 높은 대지저항률을 갖는 대지에 설치된 매설지선의 끝단에 접지전류를 인가한 경우 접지임피던스는 높은 주파수 영역에서 증가하였다.

This paper presents to verify the selective grounding fault protective relaying technique for the ungrounded DC traction power supply system. This system selectively blocks fault section when grounding fault occurred. In order to perform this verification, field test facilities have been installed on Oesam substation and Worldcup-Stadium substation, and field test process has been suggested. Also, selective grounding fault protective relaying components and rail voltage reduction device have been tested with the various trial examinations. In order to compare and evaluate performance of the selective grounding fault protective relaying function, field test system was modeled and the system fault simulation results were compared and evaluated with the field test result. Performance of selective grounding fault protective relaying function was evaluated with the above-mentioned process, and the fact that the system recognizes fault section irrespective of insulation between rail and ground and fault resistance from grounding fault.

This paper presents a novel method for measuring the ground impedance in grounding systems. A square wave current was injected to the main grounding grid through auxiliary electrode, and the test current and ground potential rise(GPR) were measured using the band-pass filter. Ground impedance was calculated from the sinusoidal waveforms of the test current and GPR in frequency range of 20~2100Hz. Also the resistance and reactance component of ground impedance were analyzed.

봉형접지극은 우리나라 배전계통에 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 접지전극이다. 현재 배전계통에 사용하고 있는 봉형접지극은 접지동봉, 심타용접지봉 그리고 도전성콘크리트접지봉 등이 주로 사용되고 있다. 그러나 접지저항값은 토질에 따라 소정의 접지저항값을 얻기가 어려울 때가 많아 접지저항저감제를 사용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 봉형접지지전극 중 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 접지동봉에 물을 제공하였을 때 얻어진 접지저항값을 기준으로 접지저항저감제의 사용방법(시공법), 접지저항저감제의 종류 등에 따라 얻어진 초기접지저항값, 시간경과(1년)에 따른 저항값의 변화폭 추이 등을 비교 검토한 연구이다. 본 연구 결과를 요약하면 신공법으로 접지저항저감제를 사용하였을 때 낮은 초기접지저항저감을 얻는 효과뿐만 아니라 시간경과에 따른 접지저항값의 변화폭도 적어 안정됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

In a previous paper, the EMTP modeling technique using search coil test is established through various transient analysis including system grounding condition and grounding resistance for HVDC submarine cables. It was also proved by comparison with real test results. Based on this EMTP modeling technique, in this paper, it will be applied for modeling of ${\pm}180kV$ real HVDC submarine system(Jeju~Haenam). This paper variously analyses the effects of fault resistance including the resistance between core and sheath, the resistance between sheath and amore and the resistance between amore and sea water through EMTP modeling of search coil method. The results can contribute to the accuracy of detailed fault point prediction of search coil test for HVDC submarine cables.

There are a lot errors and little accuracy when calculating the grounding resistance with the transposition methods in the equivalent surface of hemisphere electrode. Therefore we should calculate the grounding resistance by using the mesh factor. In this paper, we would estimated the grounding value of mesh electrode with water tank model & estimation method using the reduced scale ratio of mesh electrode based on the theory of model electrode & proportional factor according to the reduced scale ratio. And also we have confirmed the accuracy of the empirical formula of model electrode by using by regression analysis.
