In recent years, it has been a worldwide trend that many power utilities gave their attention to develop and operate their power plants, substation and distribution systems. Following this trend, KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Corporation) has developed many electric automation systems with various communication networks. It has been natural that the automation systems are just focused on to remote devices when they come to be designed. But, we have to shift the focus to the automation system itself. We have developed the Multi-service Optical Transmission System (M-OTS) for electrical power systems. It can be adopt to not only distribution power field but also the transmission power field. The result strongly shows that the system is potentially beneficial in reliability, speed, and expandability. This paper presents some of initial design efforts and results toward a KEPCO's communication system in distribution areas.

Korea Electric Power Research Institute has carried out verification of communication conformance on IEC 61850 based IEDs related to power IT project "Development of Prototype for Advanced Substation Automation System based on the Digital Control Technology". Owing to IEC 61850 international standard and digital substation automation system, IED testing process should be changed from the conventional way to the new way described in the paper. This paper describes IED testing procedures based on substation automation system using UML.

The substation automation is a system to remote-monitor and control electric power flow. And in line with electrification of railway, an interest in electric railway substation automation is increasing. IEC standardized IEC 61850, IEC 61968 and IEC 61970 communication protocol for the telecommunication standardization of the electric power automation industry. The recent SCADA systems in managed electric railway substations are have the problem about the compatibility with the products which fit to the international standard specification afterward. In this paper, the model of electric railway substation automation based on IEC 61850 and IEC 61970 is presented. And the method supporting the compatibility between the equipment is proposed.

In order to ensure second-order multi-agent systems (MAS) realizing consensus more quickly in a limited time, a new protocol is proposed. In this new protocol, the gradient algorithm of the overall cost function is introduced in the original protocol to enhance the connection between adjacent agents and improve the moving speed of each agent in the MAS. Utilizing Lyapunov stability theory, graph theory and homogeneity theory, sufficient conditions and detailed proof for achieving a finite-time consensus of the MAS are given. Finally, MAS with three following agents and one leading agent is simulated. Moreover, the simulation results indicated that this new protocol could make the system more stable, more robust and convergence faster when compared with other protocols.

The new distribution automation system was developed in KEPCO just recently. This system has many functions for remote control and data acquisition but it has not all functions for the full automated distribution system. This paper presents the contents of many kinds of additional application programs on the stage of developing and coming to the final completion for the large scaled distribution automation system.

We generally use Yes-No algorithms for feeder automation algorithm. This logic determines the faulty section by fault current detection information of the fault indicators of each switches in distribution feeder. This paper presents the data acquisition method such as breaker's open status in fault and the determination method of faulty section using fault indicator's information of each switches.

For feeder automation function, we must have Fault Indicator with the information of fault current flowing inside automatic feeder switches. In this paper, we introduce the algorithm of feeder automation, the theory of fault indicator, the result with some troubles of field test in real distribution system and contents of improvement.

In order to achieve stable and efficient use of energy at iron and steel works, a model for the prediction of supply and demand of electric power system is developed on the basis of the information on operation and particular patterns of electric power consumption. The optimal amount of electric power to be purchased and the optimal fuel allocation for the in-house electric power plants are also obtained by a mixed-integer linear programming(MILP) and a nonlinear programming (NLP) solutions, respectively. The validity and the effectiveness of the proposed model are investigated by several illustrative examples. The simulation results show the satisfactory energy saving by the optimal solution obtained through this research.

Electric-field coupled power transfer (ECPT) systems employ a high frequency electric field as an energy medium to transfer power wirelessly. Existing ECPT systems have made great progress in terms of increasing the transfer distance. However, the topologies of these systems are complex, and the transfer characteristics are very sensitive to variations in the circuit parameters. This paper proposes an ECPT system with a double-sided LC network, which employs a parallel LC network on the primary side and a series LC network on the secondary side. With the same transfer distance and output power, the proposed system is simpler and less sensitive than existing systems. The expression of the optimal driving voltage for the coupling structure and the characteristics of the LC networks are also analyzed, including the transfer efficiency, parameter sensitivity and total harmonic distortion. Then, a design method for the system parameters is provided according to these characteristics. Simulations and experiments have been carried out to verify the system properties and the design method.
