The dielectric breakdown of epoxy composites used for transformers was experimented and then its data were simulated by Weibull distribution probability. As a result, first of all, speaking of dielectric breakdown properties, the more hardener increased the stronger breakdown strength at low temperature because of cross-linked density by the virtue of ester radical. And the breakdown strength of specimens with filler was lower than it of non-filler specimens because it is believed that the adding filler forms interface and charge is accumulated in it, therefore the molecular motility is raised, the electric field is concentrated, and the acceleration of electron and the growth of electron avalanche are early accomplished. In the case of filled specimens with treating silane, the breakdown strength become much higher since this suggests that silane coupling agent improves interfacial combination and relaxs electric field concentration. Finally, from the analysis of weibull distribution, it was confirmed that as the allowed breakdown probability was given by 0.1%, the applied field value needed to be under 21.5MVcm.

This paper introduces the findings of a detailed study on breakdown voltage strength under DC voltage and the development of HVDC cable. Recently, Nano-fillers are attracting attentions of many researchers and engineers, since they seem to bring higher potentials for advancement of electrical insulating properties as nano-composites. Additives and fillers are often adopted to polymeric materials for improving insulating and machanical properties. We have improved the polymer composition and developed a new insulation material for HVDC cable. Each specimen blended at LDPE1 to antioxidant, LDPE2 to antioxidant, pure XLPE was manufactured respectively. The insulation performances of the proposed insulator were compared with specimens blended at nano powders. DC breakdown strength of LDPE1 specimen at 90[$^{\circ}C$] was higher than other specimens. The experimental results show that polar groups intorduced in moleculars chains of blended specimen plays an important role in enhancement of thermal conductivity.

This paper focuses on emergency source and control of substation against the consequence of power system breakdown or outage. the aim of the paper is to provide ideas and guidance concerning methods of using AC/DC combined emergency source for power system control to restore power system after unforseen events, such as outages caused by natural disaster. so the emergency source and lamp is very important for restoration control of substation after outage. therefore, this paper proposes countermeasure and method for security of substation emergency source and lamp which is restored at breakdown.

The less sensitive structure to the surface effect has been presented utiliting an undoped GaAs layer on the n-GaAs channel. The undoped layer has been found to be effective to supress the frequency dispersion phenomena caused by a surface trapping effect and to raise the MESFET's performance. The gate structure, with an undoped layer underneath the gate metal has been found to be effective to improve the breakdown voltage. GaAs MESFETS with different physical structures are fabricated and DC characteristics are measued. GaAs MESFET's are fabricated on epi-wafers which have an undoped GaAs layer in between n+ and n GaAs layers grown by MBE.

In this study, in case the lead sheath of XLPE cable (radius : 15cm, inner conductor radius : 5cm, insulation paper raidius : 6cm, dc voltage : 1MV) is harmed, so that breakdown process by inhomogeneous eletric field is simulated with Finite Element Method. The result of simulation showed that defect of lead sheath layer caused breakdown.

The results of an experimental investigation into the breakdown characteristics of a model power line in the presence of oil flame are reported under the application of 60[Hz] ac and dc high-voltages. It is appeared that flame can reduce by more than half, 80[%] in maximum, the breakdown voltage with the case of h=0 under ac and dc applications. Taking a horizontal model line with a k=0.5 of flame position, it can be seen from the results that the reduction of flashover levels, in comparison with the no-flame case, are 78.6[%] for h=0[cm], 59.7[%] for h=3[cm], 46.9[%] for h=6[cm], 41.5[%] for h=9[cm] and 35.4[%] for h=12[cm] when ac voltage is applied.

This paper presents theoretical and practical details about the design, implementation, and performance of a series resonant dc-to-dc converter using planar magnetics. Results of sinusoidal analysis are used to predict the voltage gain and conversion efficiency. The performance of a prototype converter is presented including the efficiency measurement and theoretical loss breakdown.

In this study, it was studied on dielectric breakdown strength and thennostability properties due to the structure variation of matrix resin and treatment of coupling agent of epoxy insulating materials. The interpenetrating network structure was formed by simultaneous heating curing the epoxy resin with single network structure and the methacrylic acid resin. Also inner structure was observed and the glass transition temperature was measured on these three type specimens. Dielectric breakdown properties were investigated by applying DC, AC and impulse voltage. As a result, the glass transition temperature and the dielectric breakdown strength of specimen with interpenetrating network structure was more higher than another two type specimens.

The gas-insulated switchgear(GIS) has made high-reliability, high-safety, compact substations possible by using $SF_6$ gas. They are likely to be further developed toward higher voltages and targer capacities, along with greater compactness and lower cost. Although $SF_6$ gas has excellent insulation performance, breakdown voltages are reduced by the conducting particles. Thus, extensive studies have been made on the breakdown characteristics of $SF_6$ gas in particle contaminated conditions. Experiments were carried out for fired particle and free particle in a coaxial electrode system with DC and AC voltages. This paper represents the experimental results of the processes involved in electrical breakdown in compressed $SF_6$ gas, where breakdown is initiated by conducting particles.
