In recent years, The electronic and energy industries demand low power consumption and high efficiency, so under their demands, the white goods industries which are represented for refrigerator and air conditioner system be implemented energy-saving power suppling structure with inverter control system. As inverter control system is different from step control type, when switching system is optimizing temperature control during short period, the inrush plus current can be flown in the circuit. In despite of these characteristics, there is no fuse which can be applied to this type until now. For this reason, we suggest the method of manufacturing protector in the high efficient inverter control system using the alumina-based ceramic radiated heat characteristics and metal films laminated plating. And through the evaluating electrical characteristics, we make a possible to utilize the method when designing overall fuses.

Noise and vibration are likely to disturb the sensory system of human body leading to psychological stress and thereby property damage. In this research, a cut out switch(COS) with a built-in acoustic absorber along with a COS fuse broken was developed to reduce percussion noise. This new system is based on a design approach that combines existing absorber systems: expansion type, resonator type, and acoustic absorber type silencer The noise performance of the new system was simulated using the $SYSNOISE^{TM}$ software under optimized parameters: the diameter of perforated plate 2 mm, the plate thickness 3 mm, the width of expansion room 25 mm, the impinging vortex room 14 mm, and the noise absorbtion room 10 mm. The results showed that it reduced noise by approximately 41.1 dB compared to the current systems available in the market. Furthermore, it showed reduced noise by approximately 12 dB more than a product with an acoustic absorber of the Fault Tamer(USA).

To protect the damages or the disasters caused by overheating of industrial electric equipments or electric home appliances, a temperature sensitive thermal fuse is generally used in those equipments. Thermal fuses cutoff the current flow when the temperature of the electric equipments are abnormally overheated and over the certain temperature. Therefore thermal fuse is one of the most important elements in the sense of safety. Thermal fuses are classified into two types according to thermally sensitive materials, a low temperature melting alloy and an organic chemical compound. Domestic products of thermal fuses are now only with an organic chemical compound. Domestic products tested by using cutoff test and aging test etc. are satisfied UL specification. It's shown that the accuracy and the precision of the domestic products are as good as those of the overseas products obtained UL mark. However, some of domestic products show the reclosing problem which is mainly related the safety. This problem should be solved to make the reliable thermal fuses. In this paper, our Interest is to find out the causes of reclosing. In the comparison between thermally sensitive materials occurred reclosing and those occurred no reclosing, the test effects show that the characteristics of emitting heat and absorbing heat are different.

본 연구에서는 MDF(Mild-detonating Fuse)를 이용한 선형분리장치 개발 가능성을 확인하기 위해 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 지름이 작은 금속(납) 튜브 내부에 화약(RDX)이 충전되어 있는 MDF를 활용한 알루미늄 평판 절개 기초 시험을 수행하였다. 평판의 두께와 MDF의 단위 길이당 화약량을 조절해가며 시험을 수행하였으며, 평판 두께와 화약량에 따른 절개 여부를 확인하였다. 시험 결과를 바탕으로 AUTODYN 기반의 수치 해석 모델을 개발하였으며, 정확한 파괴 조건을 결정하였다. 시험 및 해석 결과 분석을 통해 MDF의 알루미늄 평판 절개 메커니즘과 특성을 확인하였으며, 체계 적용 가능성을 확인하였다. 개발된 해석 기법을 활용하면 다양한 MDF 및 구조물에 대한 절개 가능 여부를 미리 확인하여 개발 과정에서의 시험 비용을 최소화 할 수 있다.

Current delivery system, in which the analog current produced by a unique DAC circuit is stored into a current-memory circuit and delivered in a time-divided sequence, shows variation of output current as low as 4% in a current source data-driver IC for AM-OLED driven by a current-programmed method without any fuse repairing after fabrication. This driver IC has 54 outputs and can sink constant current as low as 3 ${\mu}A$ with 6-bit analog levels. Such a low current level without variation can hardly be obtained by an ordinary MOS transistor because the current level is in the sub-threshold region and changes exponentially with threshold voltage variation. Thus we adopted a current mirror circuit composed of bipolar transistors to supply well-controlled current within a nano-ampere range.

Among the various types of fault current limiters, superconducting fault current limiters could be the most preferable choice for high voltage electric power systems owing to the remarkable current limiting characteristics of superconductors. But, there have been no commercial superconducting fault current limiters which were installed into actual electric power systems until these days due to some remained technical and economical problems. Thus, in order to promote the development and application of the superconducting fault current limiters into real field, it is essential to understand the power utilities’ requirements for their networks and also suitable test method and some specifications should be prepared. This paper focuses on the matters of test requirements and standardization issues that should be prepared for commercialization of superconducting fault current limiters. The unique current limiting characteristics of superconducting fault current limiters were investigated and related other standards including circuit breakers, transformers, reactors, power fuse, and fused circuit breakers were compared to setup the basis of novel specification of superconducting fault current limiters. Furthermore, required essential test procedures for superconducting fault current limiters were suggested.

A high-voltage generator is used to program the anti-fuse of the semiconductor chip. A new high-voltage generator consists of PN diodes and new stack type capacitors. An oscillator supply pulses to the high-voltage generator. The pulse period of the oscillator is delayed by controlling gate-voltage of the MOS. The pulse period is about 27ns, therefore the pulse frequency is about 37MHz. The threshold voltage of PN diode is about 0.8V. The capacitance of new stack type capacitor is about 4pF. The output voltage of the new high-voltage generator is about 7.9V and its current capacity is about $488{\mu}$A.

The demand for protection of power electronic applications has during the last couple of years increased regarding the high-power IGBT modules. Even with an active protection, a high power IGBT still has a risk of exhibiting a violent rupture in the case of a fault if IGBT Fuses do not protect it. By introducing fuses into the circuit this will increase the circuit inductance and slight increase the over-voltage during the turn-off of the diode and the IGBT. It is therefore vital when using fuses that the added inductance is kept at a minimum. This paper discuss three issues regarding the IGBT Fuse protection. First, the problem of adding inductance of existing High-Speed and new Typower fuses in DC-link circuit is treated, second a short discussion of the protection of the IGBT module is done, and finally, the impact of the high frequency loading on the current carrying capability of the fuses is presented.

Recently, the occurrences of electrical fire have been suppressed by an earth leakage breaker(ELB), a no fuse breaker(NFB) and a fuse in case of an earth leakage, a short circuit and an over current. But it is impossible for the ELB to break the circuit in the case of the failure of pressure contacts on connecting points and the momentary short circuit. Therefore, it is require to study the constructive problem of the ELB. In this paper, we have developed the auxiliary control device, electrical fire prevention control device(EFPCD), of the ELB. And we have tested the operation characteristics of the ELB according to the load(R, L) As a result of this experiment, we could prevent the electrical fire due to the spark and the overheat occurring in the failure of pressure contacts on connecting points and the momentary short circuit.

현재 고감도의 누전차단기(RCD)와 배선용차단기(WCCB)및 퓨즈(Fuse)설치를 통하여 누전·단락사고와 과전류 발생시 차단기능을 부여함으로써, 전기화재의 발생을 억제하고 있으나, 매우 미흡한 실정이다. 특히 소손사고와 접속·접촉불량사고 및 순간단락사고 발생시는 구조적으로 차단이 불가능할 것으로 사료되며, 이에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 상기의 상황에 기초해서 가장 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 열동형 누전차단기(단락보호, 과부하 겸용)의 동작원리와 시험항목 및 기준분석을 통하여 문제점을 제시하고자 한다. 또한 저압 배선선로의 소손사고와 접속·접촉불량사고 및 순간단락사고 발생시 전등(R)부하 및 전동기(R-L)부하에 따른 누전차단기의 동작특성을 실제 실험을 통하여 검토하고자 한다.
