Autoreclosure provides a means of improving power transmitting ability and system stability. Conventional reclosure adopts the fixed dead time interval strategy, where the reclosure is activated after a time delay to restore the system to normal as quickly as possible without regard to the system conditions. However, these simple techniques cannot provide optimal operating performance. This paper presents an adaptive autoreclosure algorithm including variable dead time, optimal reclosure, phase-by-phase reclosure and emergency extended equal-area criterion (EEEAC) algorithm in order to improve system stability. The reclosure algorithm performs the operations that are attuned to the power system conditions. The proposed adaptive reclosure algorithm is verified and tested using ATP/EMTP MODELS, and the simulation results show that the system oscillations are reduced and the transient stability is enhanced by employing the proposed adaptive reclosure algorithm.

This paper describes the characteristic evaluation of 154kV lightning arrester developed by domestic technology. To prove the protective ability of lightning arrester developed, various overvoltages were analyzed for A and B arrester were being used now at 154kV air and gas insulation substation, and for arrester developed. The results obtained by the various simulations show that the developed arrester has the effective protective ability and reducing ability of the overvoltage as A and B arrester, nevertheless there are somewhat differences among three kinds of arresters. Accordingly, it is evaluated that the arrester developed by domestic technology secured reliability can be installed actually at 154kV substation. In this paper, EMTP/ATP was used for simulation.

There are several ways to bond to building grounding systems for reducing GPR(ground potential rise) and EMI resulting from power system faults or lightning stroke to building. In order to verify effective bonding practice, the GPR and voltage of equipment due to the direct stroke to building are calculated with ATP-EMTP model for transformer, transmission line and MOV(Metal oxide varistor). The simulated model shows a satisfactory accuracy compared with experimental result for the $8/20{\mu}s$ simulated current pulse. It is observed that separate grounding can cause dangerous voltage to the building equipment and the performance of surge protective device can improve when it is installed to the protected equipment in distance as short as possible.

This paper presents a new approach for simulating the internal faults of synchronous machines using distributed computing and Large Change Sensitivity (LCS) analysis. LCS analysis caters for a parallel solution of 3-phase model of a faulted machine within the symmetrical component-based model of interconnected network. The proposed method considers dynamic behavior of the faulty machine and connected system and tries to accurately solve the synchronous machine’s internal fault conditions in the system. The proposed method is implemented in stand-alone FORTRAN-based phasor software and the results have been compared with available recordings from real networks and precisely simulated faults by use of the ATP/EMTP as a time domain software package. An encouraging correlation between the simulation results using proposed method, ATP simulation and measurements was observed and reported. The simplified approach also enables engineers to quickly investigate their particular cases with a reasonable precision.

This paper describes the synergism of Artificial Neural Network and Fuzzy Logic based approach to improve the reliability of transformer differential protection, the conventional transformer differential protection commonly used a harmonic restraint principle to prevent a tripping from inrush current during initial transformer´s energization but such a principle can not performs the best optimization on tripping time. Furthermore, in some cases there may be false operation such as during CT saturation, high DC offset or harmonic containing in the line. Therefore an artificial neural network and fuzzy logic has been proposed to improve reliability of the transformer protection relay. By using EMTP-ATP the power transformer is modeled, all currents flowing ...

An out-of-step condition results from the loss of the synchronism of the generators. A disturbance in a power system causes the generator angle to oscillate. When there is a severe disturbance such as a heavy current fault loss of major generation or loss of a large block of load, the oscillation can be severe and even increase largely and finally the out-of-step condition may un. During the power swing and out-of-step conditions, the apparent impedance at a relay location changes, and the power flow also changes as the angle difference is varied. This paper presents a method to analyze the trajectory of complex power during a power swing and out-of-step condition. The trajectory of the complex power is analyzed when a power swings and a fault occurs. Moreover, the complex power is analyzed when the ratios between the voltages at both sides and the line impedances are changed. These methods are verified through simulation using the ATP/EMTP MODELS.

This paper describes switching surge analysis on reclosing decision in 154kV combined transmission line with power cables. Reclosing should be operated in combined transmission line based on the technical evaluation because of insulation problem of power cable section. If the surge strikes on power cable, the breakdown can occur at week point of cable insulation. Therefore the detailed analysis is required by considering several conditions such as length ratio of power cable, arrester, fault resistance, charging rate and grounding resistance, etc.. In addition, sheath voltage on IJ(Insulated Joint) is analyzed to confirm the protective level. Simulation is performed by EMTP/ATP. Analysis results show that reclosing can be operated without any special problem by the single line-to-ground fault with fault resistance of $1\Omega$ to $50\Omega$ occurred at the overhead transmission section in 154kV combined transmission lines and trap charge of 100% and 110%.

최근 국내에서 345kV GIL(Gas Insulated Transmission Lines) 시스템의 실계통 도입이 검토되고 있다. GIL은 지중화 설치가 가능하지만 일반적인 지중케이블과 달리 도체와 외함이 모두 알루미늄으로 되어 있고, 도체 및 외함의 단면적이 매우 크며, 도체전류의 정격 또한 4000[A]에 육박하여 외한에 유기되는 순환전류 역시 상당할 것으로 사료된다. 또한, 접지방식 또한 일반 케이블 시스템과 다르게 되어 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 GIL 시스템의 다양한 접지방식과 부하 불평형 상태를 가정하여 EMTP/ATP 시뮬레이션을 통하여 GIL 시스템의 외함 순환전류 특성을 파악하고자 한다.

최근 인구 집중현상에 따른 대도시의 전력수요 증가 및 환경적 요인으로 인하여 가공선로의 일부가 지중으로 건설되는 가공 및 지중 혼합 선로가 지속적으로 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 이는 국내뿐만 아니라 전력 선진국 및 신흥 공업국 등의 전 세계 여러 나라에서도 마차가지이다. 한편, 국내 전력산업계의 해외진출 기회가 늘어나고 있으나 해외 전력계통에 대한 기술적 검토 자료가 빈약하여 관련 자료의 확충이 절실히 필요한 실정이며, 가공선로가 아닌 지중선로 특히 지중-가공 혼합선로에 대해서는 기술검토 자료가 전무한 형편이다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 국내 전력기업이 중국과 같은 해외사업 진출시 기술 자료로 활용할수 있도록 중국의 기간 송전망으로 되어있는 220kV 혼합송전선로를 대상으로 EMTP/ATP 시뮬레이션을 통하여 지락고장시 접지방식에 따라 발생 과전압을 검토하여 적절한 접지방식을 찾고자 한다.
