This paper presents a method of simulating the protection effects of surge protective devices(SPDs) depending on the protective distance and types of input impedance of load to be protected. In order to analyze the protective performances of voltage-limiting type SPDs associated with the reflection and oscillation phenomena, the terminal voltage across load being protected and the residual voltage of SPDs were simulated by using EMTP model as functions of the protective distance and types of input impedance of loads. As a consequence, SPDs should be installed by taking into account the protective distance and input impedance of loads to achieve reliable protection of electrical and electronic equipment from lightning and switching surges. It is expected that the simulation method proposed in this paper could be practically used in design for installing SPDs in low-voltage distribution systems.

In this study we developed accelerated aging test cycle and equipment which can simulate domestic weather condition. And we proposed long term reliability assessment method for polymer housed distribution surge arresters. We carried out electrical and chemical analysis of the arresters which are used for accelerated aging test and outdoor exposure test. Through the analysis we verified the capability of the proposed method and we presented characteristic data for maintenance of domestic arresters.

PID controller is widely uesd as automatic equipment for industry. However when a system has various characters of intermittence or continuance, a new parameter decision for accurate control is a hard task. As method of solving this problem, in this paper, a Neural Network gain automatic regulator as PID controller functions is presented. A property feedback control gain of system is decided by a rule of Delta learning. The function of proposed automatic Neural Network gain regulator is verified by speed control experiment results of Induction Motor.

The basic purpose of grounding is for human safety and normal operation of system related to electrical shock hazard by faults of electrical equipments. A grounding electrode is defined as a conducting element that connects electrical systems and/or equipment to the earth. The lowest possible resistance connection to the earth is sought from the grounding electrode. The grounding electrode is the foundation of the electrical safety system. The resistance to ground of vertical electrodes buried in the two deference soil structures has been analyzed for a length of electrodes and soil parameters. The equation of ground resistance of vertical electrodes are Tagg's equation for uniform soil models, and modified equation of Dwight equation for two-layer soil model. In this paper, compared with results of two equations are calculated values of vertical electrode in uniform and two-layer soil models.

This study is for the improvement in the equipment environment of the emergency and recovery lamps in electric substations. To solve problem about the weak illuminance of existing emergency lamps, the AC/DC combination lamps and switches are reviewed. And the improved illuminance standards that are divided each room's purpose are suggested. It is based on a nuclear power plant's Illuminance Standards and a safety lamp's Illuminance Standards of Illuminance Standards Korean Industrial Standards - KS A 3011 -, not just 5~10[%] in according with normal lamp's illuminance. Lastly, The experiments are conducted to prove the suggested contents on this study. Consequently, a battery capacity is not increased, but illuminance of emergency and recovery lamps can be increased.

UV-IR camera is being used for predictive maintenance of high voltage equipment together with measurement of temperature on localized heat and corona discharge. This paper was suggested the judgement method that is the discharge count, UV image pattern and discharge matching rate to apply the UV-IR camera on power facility. The discharge count method is counted by UV image pixel value. the UV image pattern method is determined by the UV image shape using neural network algorithm method, separated by Sunflower, Jellyfish, Ameba. The UV discharge matching is compare the breakdown the UV image size and measuring UV image size according to distance.

Today, apartment is the most common residence type and various behavior occurs in living room space of apartments. Active usage of living room in modem life increases user's desire of wanting a better environment and leads to find various methods such as remodeling. At the point when considering moving or remodeling, this study focuses on the change of lighting color as it is one of the methods for initial stage with moderate price. As living room is easily influenced by lighting, providing active environment to support inhabitant's behavior through the use of various lighting sources will cut down unnecessary remodeling costs and may be the most simple method to actualize lighting environment for inhabitant's behavior. To give change with the least effort, change in artificial lighting environment was attempted with combinations of lighting color and switching on lights according to illuminating location. This study suggested the capability of changing lighting environment of previous living room area by exchanging lighting sources in lighting equipment in order to satisfy the required behaviors of inhabitant.

The grounding system is necessary to provide means to dissipate electric currents into the earth without exceeding any operating and equipment limits. The ground is composed of various soils and the resistivity of the soil depends on many parameters. It depends on the type of soil and varies with distance as well as with depth. Especially, soil resistivity of volcanic area such as Jeju is ve교 high and it is difficult to acquire necessary grounding resistivity. This paper introduces the efficient grounding construction using coring technique for proper grounding resistance in high resistivity area. Because it is difficult to measure the accurate resistivity of soils, their resistivities are estimated using measured value of ground resistance and equivalent radius method. Estimated resistivities are used for grounding resistance in scheduled construction region.

In respect of global environment protection and efficient utilization of energy, co-generation systems, which have greatly higher efficiency than the other generations, have been developed and put to practical use. Assuming that the co-generation system would be operating in H-Department of Kwang-ju city, this paper calculates the difference between the heat and electricity rates by the conventional method and the co-generation system considers the cost of new investment and analyzes introduction economics based on the return on investment. The introduction is turned out to be recommendable, since the return of investment for co-generation equipment is about five years when the co-generation profits in heat and electricity rate. Additionally, accounting for interest rate drop, improvement of environmental matters or electricity rate increase, it is shown to be even more economical.

With the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as lighting facilities in all modern society high neutral harmonic currents have been observed. High neutral currents in three- phase four-wire distribution systems can cause lots of harmonic problems. The most common solution of neutral harmonic currents reduction is a zero phase sequence filter using zig-zag transformer. This paper analyzes a commercially available neutral line zero sequence currents reduction device and applies the equipment to lighting loads for eliminating harmonics. Experimental results are compared numerically and graphically with simulation results through the use of MATLAB.
