This paper presents a new one-terminal numerical algorithm for fault location estimation and for faults recognition. The proposed algorithm are derived for the case of most frequent single-phase line to ground fault in the time domain. The arc voltage wave shape is modeled numerically on the basis of a great number of arc voltage records obtained by transient recorder. From the calculated arc voltage amplitude it can make a decision whether the fault is permanent of transient. In this paper the algorithm uses a very short data window and enables fast fault detection and classification for real-time transmission line protection. To test the validity of the proposed algorithm the Electro-Magnetic Transient Program(EMTP/ATP) is used.

진공인터럽터는 진공차단기에서 실제 사고전류차단시 발생하는 아크소호 및 차단을 담당하는 매우 중요한 부분이다. 일반적으로 교류차단기는 일시적으로 에너지가 공급되지 않는 전류 영점에서 아크소호 및 전류차단이 이루어진다. 일반적으로 아크가 발생하는 전극분리시점에서 아크가 소호되는 전류영점까지의 시간을 아크지속시간(arcing time)이라고 한다. 일단 진공 인터럽터 내부의 접점이 분리됨과 동시에 아크가 발생하게되면 이때 진공인터럽터는 아크지속시간동안 고온의 아크에 의한 접점손상을 최소화하기 위해 아크의 거동을 적절히 제어하여 아크에너지를 접점표면상에 골고루 분산시켜야 한다. 현재 진공인터럽터에 사용되는 아크제어 방식에는 크게 횡자계 방식과 축자계 방식이 있다. 본 논문에서는 횡자계 방식 중 spiral type 접점을 사용하여 25 kA의 전류차단시험을 진행하면서 아크전압을 취득하는 동시에 아크이미지를 촬영하여 아크지속시간동안의 아크의 거동을 분석하였는데 특히 본 실험에서는 전체 아크지속시간동안의 아크상태천이과정이 가장 잘 관찰되는 비교적 긴 아크지속시간을 설정하여 실험을 진행하였으며 이때 접점손상이 아크거동 및 차단성능에 미치는 영향을 중점적으로 다루었다.

With an expansion in automation of welding processes, emphasis has been shifted from other welding processes to the GMA welding. However, there is a problem with this process that the spatter occurs very frequently. In GMA welding, there are several types in the way of metal transfer from the electrode wire to the weld pool, which have a close relatonship with the spatter genetration. This study was concerned with the spatter occurring in the short-circuiting transfer. In welding with short-circuiting, the electromagnetic force formed by the welding current facilitatics the rupture of the metal bridge between the wire and workpiece and ensures the normal process of the welding process. However, the spatter can be genetrated from the droplet because of the upward magnetic force, when the droplet contacts with the weld pool. The passage of current through the bridge results in the accumulation of the thermal energy, which causes the bridge to explode in the final stage of short-circuiting, thus forming the spatter. Based on the above phenomena in conjunction with other experimental results published, the physical phenomenon related with the occurrence of spatter was modeled and the current waveform was investigated to reduce the spatter. Finally, the fuzzy rule based method was proposed to predict the time of short-circuiting and arcing in the metal transfer.

It is necessary to install the arc generation facility to obtain the important technology for the design of breakers and switches, and the improvement of their performance and reliability. With this facility it is possible to study the characteristics of Arc in air/gas/vacuum insulation environment. The arc generation facility briefly consists of capacitor bank which can charge enormous energy, an air-core reactor, and several measurement equipments. This facility can simulates the arc phenomena in breakers and switches by means of generating high currents. In order to the protect electrode damage during the arcing time in arc extinguishing chamber, we installed auxiliary current source in addition to main capacitor bank, This auxiliary current source produces relatively small arc between electrodes before high current generation by main capacitor bank. Therefore it is possible to observe and measure the arcing phenomenon without damage of electrodes.

전류 돌입형, 비선형 및 전류 단속형 부하들은 정상작동 상태에서 아크 발생의 경우와 유사한 전류파형을 갖는다. 이러한 부하들에서 아크 검출기법을 정확하게 구현하기 위하여서는 아크 유무에 따른 전류파형의 전형적인 특징을 찾을 필요가 있다. 본 논문에서는 UL 1699의 직렬과 병렬 아크 발생장치들로 이러한 부하들에 마크를 발생시키고 시간 및 주파수 영역에서 아크 전류파형을 분석한다. 아크 실험의 분석결과를 통하여 아크 전류파형의 전형적인 특징은 시간영역에서는 영점전류의 처짐 현상이고 주파수영역에서는 60Hz 고조파 성분을 제외한 전대역의 주파수에 걸쳐서 스펙트럼 크기가 증가되는 것임을 보인다. 비선형 및 전류 단속형 부하들에서 시간영역보다는 주파수영역의 아크 전류의 특징이 보다 명확히 나타남을 보인다. 본 논문에서 제시된 아크 전류파형의 특징들은 아크 차단기 개발을 위한 기반자료로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

In the present IEC 60427(2000), reduced applied voltage can be used for synthetic short-circuit making current tests if the maximum pre-arcing time of the test circuit breaker is less than $1/{\omega}$. But in the near future IEC, only the making tests with full test voltage shall be allowed. To meet this trend, KERI is preparing synthetic making test facilities using step-up transformer, ITMC and plasma making switch. This paper presents analytical characteristics of KERI's synthetic short-circuit making test circuits. The results of this paper can be useful for effective and adequate tests.

The effect of accelerated aging test on ethylene-propylene-diene monomer(EPDM) rubber used for outdoor insulation was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), scanning electron microscope(SEM), FFT spectrum alalysis, and electrical pulse counts using PC by oscilloscope(300 MHz). In electrical alalysis, FFT spectrum analysis indicated arcing caused a significant increase in the third harmonic content of the leakage current of polluted insulator. Also, pulse counts increased as aging time. The surface oxygen and aluminum content were found to increase and that of carbon and nitrogen were found to decrease with time. The detailed XPS analysis indicated that the concentration of carbon in C-C decreased and concentration of highly oxidized carbons increased with time, which was due to the oxidation of EPDM rubber polymer SEM analysis indicated that crack and erosion of EPDM rubber occurred with time.

ADSS(All Dielectirc Self-Supporting) cable installed under high voltage power cable line suffers a variety of environmental influence, rain, wind, snow fall, chemical pollution, salt fog and electrical stress. Its lifetime is required to be at least 20 years with this harsh weathering condition. The electrical stress under high voltage power line gives rise to dry band arcing and tracking, the severest damage, on the outer sheath of cable. Finally tracking might penetrate sheath and cause the break-down of ADSS cable. Tracking resistant sheath material, therefore, should be used to protect the core of ADSS from dry band arcing and to be sure long lifetime. In this work, we discuss various commercial tracking resistant material to investigate the way of track resistance and compare their mechanical, electrical, weathering and tracking properties through serial experiments. We found track resistant material is categorized into two main type : polyethylene with metal hydroxide and polyethylene with reduced carbon black. The Liquid contaminant, Inclined plane Tracking and Erosion test says the time to track of tracking resistant material with metal hydroxide has a little longer time to track in the high applied voltage than that with carbon black, but mechanical and weathering properties were inferior to.

Some polymer materials including epoxy resin are being instead of porcelain for outdoor insulating materials such as insulators bushings cable terminators and surge arrester housing. And the largest problem to be overcomed is the tracking and erosion of the outdoor polymer material brought about by dry band arcing during prolonged exposure to contaminations. In this paper the effect of surface tension wettability flow rate of contaminants with varying surfactant content and frequency of applied voltage on the tracking breakdown of epoxy insulating materials were investigated. As the flow rate of contaminant is increased the surface resistivity is decreased and the leakage current is increased the time to tracking breakdown is decreased. It is found that time to tracking breakdown depends on the surface tension of contaminant that is difference of wettability. And as the frequency of applied voltage is increased time to tracking breakdown decreased.
