컷아웃스위치(COS: Cut Out Switch 이하 COS)는 전력계통에서 수용가로 전력을 송배전하기 위해 사용되는 변압기의 입력단에 설치되어 사고전류로부터 변압기를 보호하기 위해 설치되는 보호장치이다. COS는 크게 퓨즈링크와 COS몸체 및 접속부로 구성되어 사고전류시 퓨즈링크의 엘리먼트가 용단되어 사고전류를 차단하는 역할을 한다. COS 퓨즈링크가 용단되어 발생하는 강력한 아크가 화염과 소음을 유발시켜 주변지역 거주자에게 불쾌감 및 공포감을 주며, 아크화염으로 인하여 주변기기의 2차 피해를 유발시킬 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 COS 동작 시 발생되는 아크와 소음 및 보호협조의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 폭발형이 아닌 한류형 COS 퓨즈를 개발하였다. 또한 과전류 차단 기능이 없는 한류형 퓨즈의 단점을 개선하기 위해 퓨즈 엘리멘트, 스트라이커와 COS 퓨즈금구 개발을 통하여 과전류 차단성능의 신뢰성을 향상시켰다. COS의 동작 특성 향상은 퓨즈 엘리멘트의 최적 형상 도출, 스트라이커의 원활한 동작을 위한 동작선의 재질과 두께 및 저항 산정, 그리고 스트라이커와 연계된 하부금구류의 구조 개선을 통하여 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 COS 퓨즈링크는 공인기관의 시험을 통하여 차단성능과 보호협조 성능을 검증하였다. 시험은 본 연구의 한류형 COS와 기존의 폭발형 비한류형 COS의 비교 시험으로 수행하였다.

This study introduces the control of duration time of impulse noises emitted from a high voltage COS fuse of a transformer. When a high voltage COS fuse becomes a short circuit by the over current, the peak sound pressure level over 150 dB(A) is generated at the distance of 2m from a COS Fuse. For the purpose of the reduction of impulse noise, in this study, the reactive type silencer has been utilized. And also electrical interrupting test was experimented. From the experimental results, the reactive type silencer has been shown to have the noise reduction of about 13 dB(A). It has been found that the electrical interception performance of the COS fuse was related to the control of the duration time of impulse noise.

변압기 보호와 과전류를 막기 위한 목적으로 COS를 사용하고 있다. 그러나 COS 휴즈는 과전류가 흐르면 과부하에 의하여 용단되면서 강한 아크를 발생하여 공기 절연파괴를 일으킨다. 이러한 현상은 소음을 발생하면서 주변 거주자나 행인들에게 두려움을 준다. 그래서 실제 환경하에서 발생되는 소음을 시급히 정립할 필요가 있다. 본 논문은 COS 휴즈가 용단되면서 발생하는 충격성 소음의 특성을 파악하고 이러한 소음을 줄일 수 있는 방안을 제안한다.

This experimental study describes the noise reduction and the feasibility of short current of a silencer for a high voltage COS(cut out switch) fuse of a transformer. When a high voltage COS fuse becomes a short circuit by the over current, the strong impulse noise over 150 dB(A) is generated. For the purpose of the reduction of impulse noise, in this study, the diffuser type and the reactive type silencers have been designed and tested, respectively. And also the electrical test on the short current is performed. From the experimental results, the well designed reactive type silencer has been shown to have the noise reduction of about 20 dB(A). It has been found that the feasibility of short current for the COS fuse is closely related to the porosity of the silencer.

This experimental study describes the propagation characteristics and reduction of impulse noises emitted from a high voltage COS(Cut Out Switch) fuse of a transformer. When a high voltage COS fuse becomes a short circuit by the over current. The peak sound Pressure above 150dB(A) is generated. In this study, an impulse noise generator is designed for generating the impulse noises similar to the noise level of COS fuse, which is utilized to test the noise reduction of a reactive silencer. The reactive silencers have been tested for 10 different types with each different porosity, hole diameter and length. From the experimental results, it is found that the reactive silencer has an excellent performance to greatly suppress the impulse noise and that its performance is closely connected with the porosity and hole diameter.

When a high voltage COS fuse becomes a short circuit by the over current, the peak sound pressure level above 150dB(A) is generated at the distance of 2m from a COS Fuse. For the purpose of the reduction of impulse noise, in this study. the reactive type silencers have been utilized. The performance of noise reduction for them can be expressed by insertion loss. The reactive silencers have been tested for 23 different types with each different porosity, hole diameter and depth. From the experimental results, it is found that the reactive silencer has an excellent performance to greatly suppress the impulse noise. The one-stage, two-stage and three-stage reactive type silencers have been shown to have the insertion losses of about from 35dB (A) to 25dB(A).

We are using COS to purpose blocking the excess current and to protect the transformer. But the fuse of COS is melt due to the overload if the excess current flows and it destroy an air severing relations to clear as strong arc happens. Such phenomenon induces an impact ambient noise and it gives the circumstance area resident or pedestrian the fear. Thus, We are the actual circumstances which an ambient noise countermeasure establishment have desired urgently. In this study, we grasp the characteristic of an impact ambient noise which a COS fuse happens the melting and study the method to reduce an impact ambient noise.

In this paper, we designed the COS MEMS system for sensing the falling detection and explosive noise of fuse link in COS (Cut Out Switch) installing on the power distribution. This system analyzed the failure characteristics and an instantaneous breakdown of power distribution. Therefore, our system strengths the industrial competence and guaranties the stable power supply. In this paper, we applied BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) technology which is suitable protocol for low data rate, low power consumption and low-cost sensor applications. We experimented with LSM6DSOX which is system-in-module featuring 3 axis digital accelerometer and gyroscope boosting in high-performance mode and enabling always-on low-power features for an optimal motion for the COS fuse holder. Also, we used the MP34DT05-A for gathering an ultra-compact, low power, omnidirectional, digital MEMS microphone built with a capacitive sensing element and an IC interface. The proposed COS MEMS system is developed based on nRF52 SoC (System on Chip), and contained a 3-axis digital accelerometer, a digital microphone, and a SD card. In this paper of experiment steps, we analyzed the performance of COS MEMS system with gathering the accelerometer raw data and the PDM (Pulse Data Modulation) data of MEMS microphone for broadcasting the failure of COS status.

When a high voltage COS fuse becomes a short circuit by the over current, the impulse noise over 150 dB(A) with the strong pulse jet is radiated from the COS fuse of an electric transformer. For the purpose of the impulse noise reduction, in this study, a reactive type silencer with perforated panels are considered. The transmission loss of the silencer are calculated by transfer matrix method. The effect of the porosity, the distance between panels, and the number of perforated panel on the sound transmission loss is investigated and discussed.
