In this paper, an electromagnetic induction on a telecommunication line by the distribution line of a power provision system or a feeder line of an electrified railway system has been verified through experiments. The basic cause of induction occurrence by these practical power provision systems is the returning current through the earth. This principle has been confirmed by the experiments documented in this paper which implemented these mechanisms to incur an induction. Experimental methods were used to produce the returning current through the earth. The experiment to find a relationship between inducing strength and the distance between the two phase lines in a power provision line has also been included to confirm that, when the distance is enlarged, the induction effect increases as the cross-nullification effect of magnetic fluxes decreases. An experiment for the existence of a shielding effect by another conduction length material has been addedas a protection measure against the induction.

When small scale wind and solar power generation systems are connected to conventional power distribution system. It is worried that it can affect the quality of electricity such as voltage variation, power factor, frequency, harmonics and flicker. Therefore, in this research, in order to investigate the effects of wind power generation equipments(AC link method) on electrical power quality, when they are connected to distribution system. Power quality analyzer was installed respectively at the front side of power conversion system of conventional wind generation system and secondary side of consumer's power supply at distribution line. Measurements on power quality were performed and the effects of the wind generation system on distribution system were analyzed when it was and was not operated. The results show that 0.34[%] increase on voltage variation, 0.145 increase on current crest factor and 0.6[$^{\circ}$] deviation on phase difference when the power generation system was operated.

The main objective of this paper is to module design and pressure relief test a new type of polymer gapless surge arrester for power distribution line. Metal oxide surge arrester for most electric power system applications, power distribution line and electric train are now being used extensively to protect overvoltage due to lightning. Surge arresters with porcelain housing must not have explosive breakage of the housing to minimize damage to other equipment when subjected to internal high short circuit current. When breakdown of gapless elements in a surge arrester occurs due to flashover, fault short current flows through the arrester and internal pressure of the arrester rises. The pressure rise can usually be limited by fitting a pressure relief diaphragm and transferring the arc from the inside to the outside of the housing. However, there is possibility of porcelain fragmentation caused by the thermal shock, pressure rise, etc. Non-fragmenting of the housing is the most desired way to prevent damage to other equipment. The pressure change which is occurred by flashover become discharge energy. This discharge energy raises to damage arrester housing and arrester housing is dispersed as small fragment. Therefore, the pressure relief design is requested to obstruct housing dispersion.

Most of the applications for distribution system operation highly rely on the voltage and current managements from the field devices. Voltage from the remote controlled switch contains unacceptably large measurement error due to the nonlinear characteristics of the bushing potential transformer. This paper proposes a new voltage magnitude estimation method by calculating voltage drop using current measurement, line impedance and loads deployment data. Contract demand power and pole transformer capacity managed by NDIS are used as a key element to improve accuracy of the proposed method. Various case studies using Matlab simulation have been performed to verify feasibility of the propose voltage estimation method.

During ground faults in power system, large current and raised potential appear at nearby places. This paper presents an analytical procedure of the ground fault current for the towers of a transmission line(154kV) and distribution line(22.9kV) of an arbitrary number of spans during ground faults. In order to economically and securely protect against undesired consequences, it is necessary to evaluate as precisely as possible the value and distribution of the ground fault current.

A power frequency magnetic field reduction method using passive loop is presented. This method can be used to reduce magnetic fields generated within the restricted area near transmission lines by alternating current overhead transmission lines. A reduction algorithm is described and related equations for magnetic field reduction are explained. The proposed power frequency magnetic field reduction method is applied to a scaled-down transmission line model. The lateral distribution of reduction ratio between magnetic fields before and after passive loop installation is calculated to evaluate magnetic field reduction effects. Calculated results show that the passive loop can be used to cost-effectively reduce power frequency magnetic fields in the vicinity of transmission lines generated by overhead transmission lines, compared with other reduction methods, such as active loop, increase in transmission line height, and power transmission using underground cables.

The authors have been discussed the optimal voltage regulation method and on-line real time method using artificial neural networks in the distribution system interconnected with Distributed Generation and Storage(DSG) systems. However, these methods have difficulty in dealing with the random load variations and operation characteristics of a number of DSG systems. To overcome these problems, this paper shows the basic concepts of smart grid system which is considered as one of the power delivery system in the near future and presents an evaluation method on the impacts of customer voltages by the operation of smart grid system. The smart grid system can change the system configuration in a flexible manner by using the static switches and offer the different power qualities in power services through the power quality control centers.

This paper presents a discrete wavelet analysis based algorithm to address the fault impedance calculation under transient state in radial power distribution networks. The fault impedances have been derived under different fault conditions. Furthermore, a recursive fault distance estimation method is proposed utilizing the measured fault impedance and power line parameters. The proposed scheme can resolve the errors caused by the non-homogeneous power lines, the presence of lateral loads since, the fault impedance will always be updated with the recursive form. For the verification of the proposed scheme, a filed test has been peformed with varying fault resistances in the 22.9(kV) radial system. Power meters and fault locators were installed at the substation. It was figured out that the performance of the discrete wavelet and the recursive scheme are very good even for high fault resistance condition.

This paper presents an algorithm for Optimal Reactive Power Dispatch(ORPD) problem based on genetic algorithm. Optimal reactive power dispatch is particularized to the minimization of transmission line losses by suitable selection of generator reactive power outputs and transformer tap settings. To reduce system loss and improve voltage profile, two methods, Loss Re-Distribution Algorithm (LRDA) and Voltage Dependent Load Model (VDLM), are applied to ORPD. The proposed methods have been evaluated on the IEEE 30 bus system. Each of results have been compared with result of load flow.

This paper suggests the harmonic effects on HTS(High Temperature Superconducting) power cable. HTS cable is regarded as not only one of the important countermeasure to supply high density power demand area, but also one of countermeasures greenhouse technology. However, with the development of digital society, the distribution line power is much contaminated with harmonics generated by various power electronic equipments. This paper describes how the HTS cable responds to the harmonic and increases AC losses caused by hysteresis phenomenon. EMTDC based harmonic simulation results are compared with AC loss measured values.
