Since a power supply substation of the magnetic levitation train system includes a inverter which is necessary to change the frequency of power, it has a different characteristic comparing to any other railway system. Nowaday a study for determining rating of facilities constituting a power supply system and modeling that system is undergoing. In this paper, a analysis model for the power supply system of the magnetic levitation train using the 3-level inverter is proposed. And the analysis for output characteristic is performed using the PSCAD/EMTDC program. The control method about the output of 3-level inverter for supplying power to loads in magnetic levitation train system is also described.

In three-phase power, when the power is supplied to the single phase load, there is the unbalance of load in the three-phase power. So the scott transformer is used in the power system to supply a single phase load in three-phase power without the unbalance of loads. Especially, the scott transformer is used in the AC substation of electric railroad. Two single phase transformers are combined by T-wiring in the scott transformer. So, two single phase voltage is provided by differing $90^{\circ}$ phase in three-phase power. The selection of related equipment and correction of protective relay are not easy from characteristic of the scott transformer when shunt and ground faults occur. PSIM(Power Electronics Simulator) is optimal simulation software in field of the power electronics and provide the simple and convenient user interface. In this paper, electric model of the scott transformer is suggested and the current of the scott transformer in shunt and ground faults is analyzed. Also, the scott transformer model is demonstrated by using PSIM.

Recently, power quality problems in AC high-Speed Railway system have been raised, because heavy train and its higher speed are required in addition to new control system by using the Electronic devices. The installation/operation of the Series Capacitor(SC) has been only a device far voltage drop in power system up to now. However, the sufficient effectiveness of compensating In voltage drop has not been proved yet because of technical limitationf SC, and harmonic resonance is attracting a attention as one of new issues. Several problems are expected such as vocational problems of a traction substation, and overloading caused by a new construction of electric railway and the in transport. Therefore, extension of power feeding the fault in the traction substation should be also considered. So this paper represents the application of TSC-SVC on the electric railway power feeding system as a device of voltage compensation, and the simulations are executed through PSCAD/EMTDC.

A directional feeding method at the railway transformer is applied for supplying the power to the electric railway substations, and the pre-installed facilities with common feeder are utilized in preparation for the failure of feeding system and in finding a fault location in case that the catenary failure occurs. However, it is some difficulty in finding the fault location since there is an interface problem with the facilities when the supplying power system operates. In this paper, Auto Fault Locator Transfer Drive System (ALTDS) is designed to search for the fault location efficiently, and the measuring data are obtained and compared with the KORAIL standards. Further, the ground connection test is accomplished 24 times as the verification method, and it is shown that the methodology provides better performance than the existing traditional one.

This paper presents an integrated fault diagnosis expert system for power systems. The proposed system diagnoses various faults occurred in both substations and transmission lines even in the case that substation fault is spreaded over the network. To cope with this problem, A meta-inference method is proposed. This scheme shares same the data structure with the pre-developed intelligent operational aid expert system installed in a practical sub-control center, without modification. This advanced integrated diagnosis system is developed using a low cost personal computer owing to the special modular programming technique. Case studies show a promising possibility of the proposed method.

An AC electrical railroad system has rapidly changing dynamic single-phase load, and at a feeding substation, three-phase electric power is transformed to the paired directional single-phase electric power. There is a great difference in electrical phenomenon between the load of AC electrical railroad system and that of general power system. Electric characteristics of AC electrical railroad's trainload are changed continuously according to the traction, operating characteristic, operating schedule, track slope, etc. Because of the long feeding distance of the dynamic trainload, power quality problems such as voltage drop, voltage imbalance and harmonic distortion my also occur to AC electrical railroad system. These problems affect not only power system stability, but also power quality deterioration in AC electrical railroad system. The dynamic simulation model of AC electrical railroad system presented by PSCAD/EMTDC is modeled in this paper, andthen, it is analyzed voltage drop for AC electrical railroad system both with single-phase distributed STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compensator) installed at SP(Sectioning Post) and without.
