This paper proposes the method to implement the railroad switching point heating system using the hybrid of the photovoltaic and wind power. The goal of the implementation of the railroad switching point heating system is to prevent freezing of the snow in the winter. The heating system of railway used to supply electricity through photovoltaic and wind power to prevent freezing. Hot wires of the railroad switching point heating system are used about 2kW of electric energy at the day. The electric energy of 2kW used the length of the hot wires about 3m. As the ON and/or OFF mode considering the tracks temperature and the ambient temperature, so the way the use of power-saving effect. In addition, the system can be used the railroad switching point heating system in winter and railway signal and street lights around the track in summer. In experiment, we acquired the power data according to time at the day of photovoltaic and wind power. We confirmed the temperature rise using the heating cable for 3m of $85^{\circ}C$, 30W/m. The temperature rise of the heating cable changes the temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ after 10 minutes and $11^{\circ}C$ after 10 minutes. We have confirmed the possibility of the railroad switching point heating system using the hybrid of the photovoltaic and wind power.

In this paper, we analyzed the optimal configuration of protection wire that have been installed in the electric railway power supply system. Protection wires are to suppress the ground potential rise when the short circuit fault between contact wire-rail(C-F), and protect the electronics equipments(signalling and communication) that are facility the wayside. The role of protection wires must be feed back quickly the fault current to the substation when a short circuit fault occurs. In this paper, we proposed that only one line to install the protection wire. Comparing how to newly proposed and existing system, most of the performance is similar. The reason is that most of the current flowing in the protection wire near the location where the fault occurred. There is no problem even if in one line for human safe and the low impedance of the return circuit in dimension to ensure the safety of the facility during the fault. To ensure safety during an fault occurs, it is sufficient even by one line. But, In the protection wire of facilities planning it is necessary to design taking into account the potential utility.

The PVC insulated flexible cords are used mainly as power supply cords of electric appliance. This electric wire is a stranded wire consisted of dozens of strands. In case stranded wires are disconnected by mechanical stress, it weakens electrically. Finally, the over current flows through stranded wires, and electrical fire occurs. In this study, we analyzed the melting properties of strands by over current, such as melting process, melting current and melting time. And we analyzed that quantity of heat for melting, a cross sectional structure, and surface structure by optical microscope and SEM. As analysis results, melting time decreased as melting current increased. And quantity of heat for melting was low, too. From the cross sectional structure of melted wire, when a melting current low and melting time long, it was found that the dendrite structure grew. However, the dendrite structure is hard to grow because growing time is not enough when a melting current high and melting time short.

Several kinds of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs), which reduces huge fault current, have been developing by many research groups. The SFCL has no impedance during normal operation, so it dose not give any influence to electric power system. The resistive type SFCL reduces the fault current with the impedance generated in the superconducting part of the SFCL when the fault current exceeds the critical current of SFCL. In this paper, a new type resistive SFCL made of bifilar coil wound with two different high-Tc superconducting (HTS) wires in parallel. Although a bifilar coil has theoretically no inductance, the bifilar coil made in this paper could generate inductance at fault. The specifications of the used two wires were considerably different, thus current distribution between the two HTS wire was different at fault. When the fault current exceeded the critical current of one wire in the bifilar coil, the momentary sharp increase of impedance was detected. Base on the results, a new resistive type SFCL can generate not only resistance but also inductance, which can be used to control a fault current in the future.

As the use of capacitors in electrical appliances and electrical control circuits increases, the related electrical fire is increasing. There are various parts such as resistors, coils, and capacitors that make up an electric circuit. Among them, the ignition of a capacitor with a temporary charging function is closely related to the structural characteristics of the capacitor. Capacitors can explode due to various reasons, and the high heat generated when they explode ignites the inflammable dielectric, which in turn burns the inflammable materials such as the surrounding electric wires and spreads into a fire. In this paper, the ignition mechanism is studied by conducting a reenactment experiment on the various probabilities that can be ignited in an electric capacitor, and the prevention measures to be applied to the fire prevention are presented.

The lightning causes the damage of power system equipments as well as large power failure. Therefore, the insulation design should be established not only to decrease the damage of the facilities itself but also to increase the reliability of electric power system. This paper describes the useful way applying underbuilt ground wire and guy wire in transmission tower that safely protect the substation equipments. One or more shield wires under the phase conductor will not intercept lightning stroke, but they may improve reduce lightning voltages almost as effectively as if they were above the phase conductors. And the guy wires will mitigate the tower surge response. These would not only reduce backflashover possibility but also minimize crest and duration of surges entering the substation. EMTP is used to analyze the efficiency of the proposed methods.

This paper describes the detection method of wire-like obstacles using millimeter-wave radar system. Passive sensor like CCD camera can be used for the detection of high power electric cables on the hills or mountains and it can give very good quality of obstacle target information. But this system is very limited to use by bad weather condition. The detection capability for different diameters of wire targets using millimeter radar system have been accomplished. To simulate the target on the moving helicopter, rotating targets are used with fixed radar system. In the experiment 11mm, 16mm and 22mm diameter of wires have been detected in single, two and three wires in one position. The detected signal from single wire was very clear on gray level image. Three wires placed very closely together could be recognized in range, cross range image plane. For two and three wires, blur effect due to mutual scattering effect is observed.

한전의 가공 송전선로는 2010년 기준으로 약 12,990km(765 kV 송전선로 354 km, 345 kV 송전선로 약 3,868 km, 154 kV 송전선로 8,173 km, 66 kV 송전선로 : 약 595 km)가 설치되어 운전되고 있다. 이러한 송전선로는 평지, 구릉, 산악지 등에 설치됨으로써 자연환경에 크게 영향을 받는다. 특히 전 세계적으로 낙뢰에 의한 송전선로의 트립 고장이 전체 고장의 약 60%를 점유하는 것으로 보고되고 있으며, 낙뢰에 의한 고장을 최소화하기 위한 내뢰 설계를 시행하고 있다. 한전에서도 전압별 계통의 신뢰도와 경제성을 고려하여 765 kV 송전선로의 목표 사고율은 0.35[건/100 km 년], 345 kV 송전선로의 경우는 1.0[건/100 km.년], 154 kV 송전선로의 경우는 2.0[건/100 km 년] 이하의 목표 사고율을 설정하여 설계 운영하고 있다. 그러나 2000년 이후 낙뢰발생 빈도가 증가하고 있으며, 낙뢰에 의한 고장 점유율도 약 75%로서 고품질 전력공급을 위한 내뢰 대책 수립의 검토가 요구되고 있다.
