In this paper, the diagnosis system for detecting and localizing the neutral wire defect in an energized XLPE power cable is proposed. The neutral wire defect is detectd and localized by the time-frequency domain reflectometry. To extract the reflected signal from the neutral wire defect, the adaptive RLS filtering is introduced. To verify the proposed method, the experiments for detecting and localizing neutral wire defect in active XLPE power cable is conducted.

A purpose of this paper is to recognize partial discharge pattern for cable insulation. The classification of PD sources was widely studied for two decades. this research sought to use the partial discharge detection method, and to diagnose the interface of cable, which is deemed vulnerable of cable systems. A research abalyzed faults that can occur in the interface of cable joint as well as accident mechanisms, manufactured test 22.9kV CNC cable, invented artificial faults and carried out partial discharge detection experiments. As a result, various PD pattern along defect measured and distinguished.

Recently, on power system, it is used to high voltage of transmission and distribution due to safe power supply and have high quality and insulation in order to satisfy excellent insulator. Thus, according to underground of high voltage cable, is occurred break down by ground short. Therefore, it is used to high quality XLPE power cable to interrupt instantaneous voltage drop. If it appear inner defect for cable whose have high quality and insulation, it is reduced rapidly due to concentration of electrical field. After assemble to manufacture, in order to inspect cable condition, it is decided much inspection standard. In this paper, In inner defect of assembling cable at manufacture, for measure the variation of insulation condition by void. it tested the variation of insulating characteristics, using $\phi$-q-n distribution variation in partial discharge experiment.

This study deals with the location of partial discharges(PDs) for power cables and GIS using 2 PD sensors and long coaxial signal cables. Throughout the experiments by use of simulated PD pulses and corona discharges in the power cable system, it is found out that the impedance matching between the coaxial signal cable and the measuring equipment should be done for good S/N ratio and the on-site measurement using more than 100m-long coaxial signal cable is possible. In addition, new PD location algorithm with the polarities of PD pulses and the arrival time difference between two pulses was proposed and was proved through the partial discharge experiments for the cable joint defect and artificial void defect.

This paper describes the study on the basic characteristics of discharge generated in cable splices using ultrasonic measurement method. Two kinds of defect which might be existed in a real cable splice were simulated. One is surface discharge moisture and metallic alien substances and the other is partial discharge by metallic particle. As a result, there were some differences in the characteristics of ultrasonic signals according to each defect. Therefore, it was found that is could be possible to protect the failure in cable splices in advance by analyzing the ultrasonic signals coming from the cable splice due to partial discharge.

There are many unfavorable conditions that lead to shortening life of cable by causing dielectric breakdown and aging such as field concentrations occurring in intermediate materials linking each cables, penetration of various impurities, and undermining of cable insulation layers. This paper simulated investigated partial discharge properties of XLPE which is widely used for ultra high voltage cable insulation materials and EPDM which is being used as insulation layer of cable joint materials kit, using Boundary Element Method. The result of computer simulation showed that inner-Void defect caused silicone oil to weaken the E-field effect. and we also found that E-field distribution in EPDM remained relatively lower than that in XLPE.

It is impossible to database(DB) the patterns of power cable events and cause analysis of faulted cable because the product liability(PL) law have been enforced in Korea, since 2002. In additions, simulation and pattern of power cable events are needed for DB system under accelerated deterioration. In this paper, we tested for resistance to cracking of cable below the 22.9[kV] class due to thermal stresses. This method of exam is following IEC 60811-3-1(Common test methods for insulating and sheathing materials of electric cables). From the results, The 22.9[kV] class A power cable was discolored on the surface and significantly reduced in the longitudinal direction. As the thermal weight properties of A power cable was definitely varied, we are able to guess the problem of manufacture. If the cable was defect by the manufacture, the victims would be able to claim for damage in the PL system.

This paper describes the influence on partial discharge characteristics of defects at the model XLPE/EPDM interfaces of power cable joints. The defects of void and copper which could inadvertently be present at the joint interface. We measured ${\Phi}-n,\;{\Phi}-q$ patterns by a computer-aided partial discharge measuring system. Several parameters i, e, maximum discharge $q_{max}$ [pC], average discharge q [pC/cycle], and average angle of discharge ${\Theta}g$ [deg] were found to depend upon the defect type varying applied voltage. As the result of time evaluation, partial discharges are small different at copper defects, but is decreasing obviously about 20 minutes at void defect. It considered that difference of magnitude of total positive discharge of Q+ [pC] and total negative discharge of Q- [pC] is SPMD(swarming pulsive micro discharges).

In this paper, in order to investigate availability of the OW-PD measurement method which has been proposed as an alternative of AC-PD measurement method to an after laying test and/or diagnosis for the power cable system, partial discharges owing to the needle-type defect integrated into the cable have been measured using AC and OW(Oscillating Wave) voltages. In the AC-PD measurement, the magnitude, phase and pulse number of partial discharges have been changed with the duration of voltage application, which can be analyzed through the relation with the process of the electrical tree initiation and propagation. In addition, the characteristics of partial discharges using OW voltage are appeared to be similar to those in case of AC-PD measurement and to be different with the shapes of electrical tree. From these results, it is concluded that the OW-PD measurement method is available to the tests for the cable system.

Defect of the Cable is one of the most frequent cause of fire accident for years. It also take a big part of the fire load for train. In this study, we reviewed the standard code of other countries for cable fire test. Oxygen index, flame propagation test, smoke test and toxicity test codes were investigated. We also suggest the our national code for train cables.
