The Korea Electric Power Research Institute (KEPRI) has developed performance demonstration programs for non-destructive testing personnel who analyze ECT(eddy current testing) data for steam generator tubing since 2001 The purpose of these performance demonstration programs is to ensure a uniform knowledge and skill level of data analysts and contribute to safe operation of nuclear power plants. Many changes have occurred in non-destructive testing of steam generator tubing such as inspection scope, plugging criteria and qualification requirements. According to the Notice 2004-13 revised by the Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST), the analyst for steam generator tubing shall be qualified as the qualified data analyst (QDA), and the site specific performance demonstration (SSPD) program shall be implemented. KEPRI developed these performance demonstration programs and they are being successfully implemented. The analyst's performance is expected to be improved by the implementation of these programs.

The steady state performance test for the digital protective relay using general relay test equipment has been main test methods. Because of the development of advanced power system testing equipments, dynamic performance test has been carried out additionally using a digital simulator such as RTDS(Real Time Digital Simulator). For the case of newly adopted digital protective relay with IEC 61850 and network, performance testing items need supplementing. This report displays testing items change according to newly protective relay.

We are carried out power performance testing for 3MW wind turbine system at Je-ju wind turbine testing Site and analyzed measured data which was stored through monitoring system. In this paper, we described the power performance testing results and analyzed an uncertainty of measured data sets. The power curve with measured power data is closely coincide with designed power curve except for the low wind speed sections(4m/s~7m/s) and the annual energy production which is given Ray leigh distribution was included with 1.5~5.9% of uncertainty in the wind speed region as 4~11m/s. Although the deviation of curve between measured power and designed power is high, the difference of annual energy production is low in the low wind speed region.

This paper describes a proposed performance criteria and evaluation procedures for transmission system planning in Korea. Performance criteria of the transmission system are expected to be used as a guideline for investment into a transmission network. Moreover, performance evaluation procedures, which are based on current practices and widely accepted theories, are suggested to achieve fair and acceptable results.

In this study, procedures, a power performance testing system of Wind Turbine System Research Center of Kangwon National University is introduced. Test prodedures and results are presented on a stand-alone vertical-axis 200W wind turbine manufactured by Geum-Poong Energy Inc.. Power performance test is performed according to IEC standard. The test results are compared with the power performance standard. Also, the effects of normalization and disturbed sectors are considered.

In this paper, The case of power performance test for 3MW wind-turbine system is introduced. For the verification of power curve and the certification of wind-turbine, power performance test is very important. This paper described the power testing results of a 3MW wind turbine and analysed an uncertainty about the testing. The measured power curves are very closely coincide with the calculated. Total uncertainty of measured data for Power Curve is 120~200kW in the rated power.

A study on power performance testing of a wind turbine which has no met-mast at a distance of 2~4 rotor diameter was carried out using the Nacelle Transfer Function, NTF, according to IEC 61400-12-2. The wind data for this study was measured at HanKyoung wind farm of Jeju Island. The NTF was modeled using the correlation between wind speeds from the met-mast and from the wind turbine nacelle within 2~4 rotor diameter from the met-mast. The NTF was verified by the comparison of estimated Annual Energy Productions, AEPs, and binned power curves. The Nacelle Power Curve, NPC, was derived from the nacelle wind speed data corrected by NTF. The NPC of wind turbine under test and the power curve offered by the turbine manufacturer were compared to check whether the wind turbine is properly generating electricity. Overall the NPC was in good agreement with the manufacturer's power curve. The result showed power performance testing for a wind turbine which has no met-mast at a distance of 2~4 rotor diameter was successfully carried out in compliance with IEC 61400-12-2.

Currently the variety of governmental business support and research for supplying solar energy have been actively progressed. As of now, however, There are no practical testing infrastructures of grid-connected photovoltaic system which test performance of solar power facility in domestic. Therefore, in KEPRI, there is in progress construction of practical testing ground of 500 kW class grid-connected PV System for developing the evaluation of the performance technology including the Module, PCS, and etc, that is the important instrument of the PV System, in Gochang area. It analyzed the site creation work for constructing the practical testing ground and new construction of control room and the unit standards, specifications and capacity of required equipment. For the system detailed design, configuration, instrument-specific parameters established, power generation predictions of Array Type and the components of testing ground are needed to build.

In the high-power tests to be performed on electrical apparatus as circuit-breaker, load switch, fuse, transformers, insulators, cable and so on, the results of tests on these apparatus are extremely important to evaluate the performance of test object. The reliability of the results depends on the reliability of measuring systems used in the laboratories where tests are performed. This paper deals with factors of uncertainty and describes estimation of uncertainty in new measuring system used in high-power testing LAB. 1 in KERI.

A comparison study between two performance testing results, one is on the site calibration not needed and the other is needed, was proceeded for the understanding on the effect of site calibration on the complex terrain. As a result, it is revealed that all of uncertainty components is effected by the topographical features dramatically. And the maximum difference of uncertainty reached at around 8% of rated capacity of wind turbine. So, the site calibration is an effective method to remove the variable wind effect by the ground complexity and must be proceeded before the power performance testing of a wind turbine.
