Abstract

The high-power 6.6 kV XLPE (or CV) cables at Korean electric power stations have been in operation for the last 40 years. Most of the XLPE cables starts deteriorating in 6-8 years from the operating instant of time, some cables may be breakdown at any moment even though they were installed in recent years, causing, huge socioeconomic losses. In order to prevent unexpected cable accident, the operating status of power cables should be monitored in regularly, timely bases. We have invented a device in order to systematically monitor and prevent an abrupt accidents of high-power cables in operation at power station. It has been installed at Korean Western Power Co. Ltd. at Taean, and operating normally for the last 4 years. In this paper, we introduce the functions and operating principles of the measuring device, and present the relationship between humidity and insulation status of XLPE cables for the load of electric turbine generator.

국내 발전소에서 운전 중인 XLPE 케이블(또는 CV케이블)은 많은 경우 포설된 지 40년에 이르고 있다. 설치 후 운전 상태에 있는 대부분의 CV 케이블은 6~8년의 기간이 경과하면 열화가 발생하기 시작하고, 근래에 포설한 케이블이라 할지라도 사고가 발생할 수가 있으며, 사고 발생으로 인하여 막대한 손실을 초래하게 된다. 사고를 미연에 방지하기 위하여 케이블의 동작상태를 정기적으로 감시 확인하여야 한다. 우리는 케이블의 사고를 체계적으로 감시 및 예방하기 위한 목적으로 측정 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 장비는 수 년 동안 충남 태안에 소재한 한국서부발전주식회사(Korean Western Power Co. Ltd.)에서 케이블의 동작 상태를 감시하고 있다. 이 논문에서 시스템의 기능 및 동작 원리를 소개하고, 터빈 발전기 부하용 XLPE 고압케이블의 절연층 절연상태와 습도의 상간관계를 제시한다.
