The past 3 years study on the lightning faults data shows that the main reason is shielding failure rather than back flashover. Accordingly, we need to thoroughly consider about shielding failure angle of tower. Also, transmission line damage caused by shielding can be minimized if we avoid the steep slope area as a transmission line route.

The audible noise produced by corona discharge in high voltage transmission lines is the most important line design consideration. In this paper, more accurate and useful formulas for predicting the A-weighted audible noise during heavy and light rain in alternative current (AC) transmission lines are proposed through comparison with the existing formulas. The proposed formulas are developed by the applications of evolutionary computations (ECs) to audible noise data base from long-term measurement.

Because of computational burden and complex topology of substation, a transmission overload relief using circuit-breaker switching was very complex and difficult. However, a on-line algorithm for reducing the overloads in transmission lines has made progress due to the advance of IT technology. This paper describes the methodology for alleviating the overloads in transmission lines by circuit-breaker switching. First, the severe contingency lists and substations were selected from the results of contingency analysis. Then the switch combinations are determined using circuit-breakers of the selected substation. The topology changes are limited to equipment outage, bus split, island split, bus merge and island merge. Finally, the fast screening and full analysis methods are used to analyze the overload in transmission lines. To verify the performance of the proposed methodology, we performed a comprehensive test for both test system and large-scale power systems. The results of these tests showed that the proposed methodology can accurately alleviate the overloads in transmission lines from online data and can be applied to on-line applications.

As a right-of-way security for the high power transmission line tower construction is becoming more and more difficult, the friendly environmental compact tower design is required. For a proper insulation for the compact tower, the polymer material are being tried. Some countries has already adapted, in the various polymer application and management data, polymer arm insulator to the transmission tower, and shown a stable operation. However, in our country, the polymer arm insulator has left much to be desired in the installation on the transmission line tower. But polymer material has been developed by high strength and technology and is expected to be used in various electric equipments. The polymer arm insulator is a one of good electric insulation materials to expand the power supply capacity in the rapid power demand increasement In this research, the new polymer am insulator is designed and its electric specifications are analyzed. Its mechanical specifications is verified through the field test on the compact tower which is modified by the polymer arm insulator.

In this paper, the initial behavior of transmission tower was analyzed. This tower was firstly constructed by rock anchor foundation in domestic 154 kV transmission line and wireless real-time monitoring system was installed to obtain the measured data for analysis of the structure behavior. For this purpose, 16 strain gauges was installed in anchors of foundation and strain gauges, clinometers, anemoscope and settlement sensors was installed at superstructure. As the results, the main factor which influence the behavior of superstructure is wind velocity, wind direction, rainfall and temperature change. Especially, the uplift load at stub of transmission structure revealed about 35.4 percentages of design load. Hereafter the long term stability will be analyzed.

In this paper, we deal with two drift compensation algorithms of acceleration sensor for measuring the galloping on power transmission line. Firstly, the block diagram of galloping measurement system is given and a galloping model is presented. Secondly, two compensation algorithms, a simple compensation and a period compensation, are proposed. A simple compensation algorithm uses the drifts of velocity and distance at fixed periods, so it is useful for constant drift case. Next, a period compensation algorithm can compensate a periodic drift. This algorithm uses the previous measured data and compensated data for constant period, where the period is obtained by FFT method. Lastly, the effectiveness of proposed algorithms is verified by comparing between two algorithms in simulation, and its characteristics and the drift error bound are shown, respectively.

Fault locating is an important element to minimize the damage of power system. The computation error of fault locator may occur by the influence of the DC offset component during phasor extraction. In order to minimize the bad effects of DC offset component, this paper presents an improved fault location algorithm based on a DC offset removal filter for short fault in a double circuit transmission line. We have modeled a 154kV double circuit transmission line by the ATP software to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed fault locating algorithm. The line to line short faults were simulated and then collected simulation data was used. It can be seen that the error rate of fault locating estimation by the proposed algorithm decreases than the error rate of fault locating estimation by conventional algorithm.

In the electric power industry, it is important that the supply of energy must be guaranteed. Many power utilities control and supervise the transmission line to avoid power failures. In case of underground tunnel, some troubles are reported in cable joint. To stabilize the power, it is needed to monitor the cable joint. Many researches of cable joint monitoring have been going on by partial discharge measurement and temperature measurement using optical cable. These methods need much cost to install and maintain, so it is only used in critical transmission line. In this research, we use wireless sensor technology, because of its low cost and easy installation. We develop the temperature monitoring system for cable joint. Temperature sensor is installed on the surface of cable joint and sends data to server through router node using wireless network. Generally Ad hoc routing is searched in wireless network. However, in this research, we design the static linear routing mechanism, which is suitable for electric power line monitoring and analyze the life time of the sensor node by measuring the amount of the battery consumption.
