Thermo-plastic has generally bad electrical characteristics at high temperature comparing to thermoset-plastics when the plastic apply to electrical power apparatus as an electrical insulator. To solve the problem, we study engineering plastics such as Polyamide and Polyphthalamide as a base resin. And filler of the engineering plastics is glass fiber. Electrical characteristics studied are permittivity, loss factor and breakdown strength according to temperature and frequency of measuring signal. Electrical characteristics of Polyphthalamide has good temperature and frequency dependency comparing to those of Polyamide.

Recently, the electrical insulation design for electrical apparatuses is important to cope with the tendency of high voltage. The degradation characteristics of a superconducting coil due to an electrical breakdown should be considered to design a high voltage superconducting coil. In this paper, the degradation characteristics of 2G high temperature superconducting (HTS) wires are studied with respect to electrical breakdown tests. To analyze the dependency of the degradation characteristics of 2G HTS wires, the electrical breakdown tests are performed with AC(alternating current) and DC(direct current) voltage. All tests are performed by applying various magnitudes of AC and DC breakdown voltages. To verify the degradation characteristics of 2G HTS wires, the tests are performed with various 2G HTS wires with respect to stabilizer materials. The degradation characteristics of 2G HTS wires, such as Ic(critical current) and index number are measured by performing electrical breakdown tests. It is found that the characteristics such as Ic and index number can be degraded by an electrical breakdown. Moreover, it is concluded that the degradation characteristics of 2G HTS wires are affected by the stabilizer material and applied voltages. The cross-sectional view of 2G HTS wires is observed by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). As results, it is found that the degradation characteristics of 2G HTS wires are concerned with hardness and electrical conductivity of stabilizer layers.

The electrical conductive mechanism and temperature dependence of electrical resistivity of ${\beta}-SiC+ZrB_2$ composites with $Al_2O_3+Y_2O_3$ contents were investigated. The electrical resistivity of hot-pressed composites was measured by the Pauw method from $25^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$. The electrical resistivity of the composites showed the PTCR(Positive Temperature Coefficient Resistivity) and follow the electrical conduction model for a homogeneous mixture of two kind of particles with different conductivity. Also, the electrical resistivity versus temperature curves indicate the formation of local chains of $ZrB_2$ particles.

This paper presents research about the development of electrical fire cause classification in order to improve the reliability of electrical fire statistics and to collect electrical fires data efficiently. The incorrect and biased knowledge for electrical fires changed the classification of certain types of fires, from non-electrical to electrical. It is convenient and required to develop the standardized form that makes, in the assessment of the cause of electrical fires, the fire investigators directly ticking the appropriate box on the fire report form or making an assessment of a text description. In this study, newly developed electrical fire cause classification structure, which is well-defined hierarchical structure so that there are not any relationship or overlap between cause categories, is suggested. Also the suggested classification structure can be used for electrical fire investigation and statistics, which minimizes the mistake that diagnose non-electrical fires into electrical ones.

본 연구에서는 하이브리드 자동차의 고전원 전기장치 및 고전원 배선에서 인체의 직접 접촉 및 간접접촉에 의한 자전사고틀 방지하기 절연저항의 측정 방법을 제시하였다. 하이브리드 자동차에서 절연저항은 ISO 및 ECE, FMVSS, Attachment 등의 국외규격에서 $100{\Omega}/Vdc$, $500{\Omega}/Vac$ 이상을 유지하도록 규정하고 있다. 하지만 하이브리드 및 전기자동차의 구조에 맞는 절연저항 측정 방법에 대한 정확한 방법이 제시되어 있지 않기 때문에 본 연구에서는 하이브리드 및 전기자동차의 절연저항 측정 방법에 있어 외국의 규격에서 제시하고 있는 방법과 비교를 통하여 실제 차량에서 적용한 수 있는 절연저항 측정 기법을 제시할 것이다.

Every year, lives are lost due to electrical safety accidents that could have been prevented with proper education and awareness of electrical safety. To prevent such accidents, experiential education is more effective than indoctrination education. This paper describes the electrical safety education system based on virtual reality (VR) and evaluates effect of the proposed system. Users operated the experiential electrical safety education system, and they were provided electrical stimulation in an electric shock experience using a haptic device. Appropriate stimulation values were calculated according to age (children vs. adults) and gender through experiment. The scenario in which participants experience electrical safety in the home environment was structured, and related educational contents was produced. A total of 68 healthy elementary students evaluated the educational effect of the system. The results showed that the educational effect and the sustainability of effect of the proposed system are superior to those of existing multimedia learning methods. By implementing electrical safety education stimulating the senses of human, the learning effect was promoted and this experiential education would be able to prevent electrical accidents.

Nowadays, to prevent electrical accidents in Korea, inspectors directly performed checking general electrical facilities as a cycle from every one to three years. It is difficult to presuppose an omen because intact conditions of electrical equipments are not kept at the time of inspection. In this paper, in order to ensure effectiveness of an online basis electric inspection, we developed an electrical safety IoT system using LoRa communication technology to enable monitoring mainly electrical safety components such as overcurrent, overvoltage, resistive leakage current, and power. Then we proposed a method for verifying performances of the prosed electrical safety IoT system. Resistive leakage currents are calculated by using difference of phase between voltages and currents. We verified that average errors are 0.97%, which reference goal is ${\pm}5%$ for a device, through reliability test according to conditions. Results of this research can be used as basic study materials to develop technologies for measuring three phase leakage current and for implementing public electrical safety. platform.

In this paper, we studied on the electrical safety evaluations of transformer insulation cover. In order to take preventive measures against an electric shock disaster in 22.9kV transformer installation, we put the insulation cover on a transformer charging parts. It needs to be designed so that the insulation covers have superior properties such as, arc-resistance, weather-resistance and heat-resistance, because they are used until the damage and destruction occur. To establish the protection cover to reduce the electrical shock, we analyzed damage mechanism and risk factors which happened by structural fault of an insulation cover in this paper. Also, based on the experimental results, we are planing to suggest new improved insulation cover models.

Infrared thermography is one of the most valuable and cost-effective diagnostic techniques for predictive maintenance on electrical systems. For the installations, the thermography can identify major problems, which if left unattended could lead to breakdowns. The result thermal images depend upon operator skills, inspection technique, and weather conditions. When the thermographer is applied to remote monitoring, the conditions of the systems are not perfectly analyzed because operators are hard to know the weather effects of the installed place. Therefore, this paper defines the effect by weather conditions these factors will influence the final results. The purpose of this paper is to define the weather effects that a thermographer needs to consider for successful condition analysis.
