Conventional Earth Leakage Circuit Breakers (ELCBs) have defects of a breaking failure or a long breaking-time against parallel arc current. In this paper, breaking characteristics of conventional ELCBs were analyzed by simulation of parallel arc in a low-voltage indoor wiring system, and an air-core current sensor and a signal converter being most available for parallel arc detection were developed and applied to a conventional ELCB. The proposed tripped the ELCB regardless of the location of parallel arc. The breaking-time was in ranges of $1.74{\sim}8.3[ms]$ depending on the phase of arc generation, which is about 5 times as fast as conventional ELCBs with the breaking-time of 50[ms].

Social development as well as the development of consumer electronic devices due to leakage, electric shock or fire, and many are exposed to the risk of leakage currents. Premises in the control cabinet, but the circuit breaker is installed, the existing circuit breaker shuts off when a short circuit in the control cabinet, installed only have the capability. Also connected to the outlet is installed byeokmada family of devices is not easy thing to check individually. In this paper, circuit breakers and circuit analysis and circuit performance, ZigBee-based premises of consumer electronics devices using sensors to monitor the health of the leakage can be presented on how. Performance analysis, the proposed ELB leakage current control system is built into the appliance leakage circuit breaker for each household appliances because the application can check the status of a short circuit, short circuit, over the existing system can be monitored easily.

This paper presents a development of the ELB (Electronic Leakage Breaker) based on a reduction of standby power dissipation as with maintaining conventional performance. In order to minimize the standby power consumption of the conventional circuit, we analyze the cause of 0.3W dissipation of the circuit. By employing the TR-triggered circuit to secure the standby power of 0.10W after testing and evaluation while CRD inserted circuit showed the performance of 0.17W levels. Implementing SMPS IC and TNR device circuit was designed and showed of its power to less than 0.06W. Developed ELB is expected much standby power savings in large power distributor or heavy users.

기존 대용량 전원 회로는 상용 전원 조건에서 AC Line 입력 전류가 높아져 누전기가 차단되는 문제가 있다. 그 뿐만 아니라 입력 전류가 높아지면 기존 전력 설비 용량이 부족한 경우가 발생하여, 전력 설비 교체 등 공사의 필요가 있다. 따라서 기존의 전력 설비를 그대로 이용하면서 단상 AC 전원의 허용 한계를 넘는 대용량 전력을 구동할 수 있는 방안을 제안한다. 역률개선회로에 전력 제한 기능을 구현하여 입력 전류를 제한하는 방법과 부족한 전력을 배터리 충/방전 회로를 이용해 보충하는 방안을 제안하며, 제안된 회로의 분석을 수행하고, 1.2KW 급 시작품을 이용한 실험적 분석을 통해 그 가능성을 검증한다.

우리나라의 실내의 배전로는 접지방식(Grounded System)이 일반적이고, 전로의 일선 지락 시에는 누전전류 차단기 혹은 과전류 차단기에 의해 전로를 차단하여 전기적인 사고 예방을 도모하고 있다. 그러나, 생명 유지 장치(Life-Sustaining Equipment)를 사용하고 있는 수술실 등 의료실의 배전 계통에 있어서의 전로의 차단은 치명적인 사고를 유발 할 수 있다. 이에 비하여, 비접지 배선방식(Isolated Power System)은 일선 지락 시에도 지락 전류 ((Ground-Fault Current)를 현저히 적게 할 수 있기 때문에 전원 공급은 계속되어 질 수 있다. 그러므로, 전원 공급의 높은 신뢰성이 요구되는 의료용 전기기기의 회로에는 비접지배선 방식으로 시설토록 규정 하고 있다. 또한, 지락 전류가 현저히 적기 때문에 선로 절연 감지기(Line Isolation Monitor)를 설치하여 의료진이나, 환자를 누설 전류에 의한 전기적 쇼크(Electrical Shock)를 방지하는 시스템이다.

A device which could cut off the consumption of standby power by electric or electronic devices at homes and offices while waiting for a command to carry out the main functions from the inside or the outside was developed at a low price. Efforts to save standby power have been made on a global scale as well as by advanced countries. The consumption of standby power in South Korea is also increasing gradually due to increasing trend in the number of electronic and electric devices per household, becoming a major factor for waste of electric energy. The previous standby power cutoff devices themselves have high electric energy consumption and complicated structures, making the purpose less meaningful. Therefore, a low-priced standby power cutoff device is suggested in this study, which compensates such problems and cuts off the consumption of standby power completely. The circuit of the suggested standby power cutoff device was designed and implemented by applying it to an earth leakage breaker and an (electrical) outlet. Experimental results show its superiority.
