Substations in Korea are classified into an outdoor steel structure type, an outdoor GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear) type, an indoor GIS type, an underground GIS type, and a complex GIS type. Before 1970, substations were built in outdoor steel structure types only. In 1980, an 154kV indoor GIS type substation was built for the first time in Pusan. And the first 345kV indoor GIS type substation, the first 765kV full GIS substation were built in 1984 and in 2002 each. In 1998, 154kV indoor type substations were standardized into regular type and urban type which applied steel frames to structures. In 2002, this was re-standardized into five different types in detail. In 2007, hub substations which had high capacity were built in the region of industrial zone and heavy load areas. And 154kV compact substation was developed and standardized by compacting an indoor GIS type substation in 2009. This paper would present a series of substation type transition and application standards for substation types and facility scales.

This paper describes experiments of the breakdown characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas and Imitation Air(I-Air) in model GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear). From the results of the experiments, the breakdown characteristics classify the vapor stage of $SF_6$ according to Paschen's law, in which the stage of coexistence for gas & liquid of the voltage value increases. This results in large deviation and the breakdown of the voltage(VB) low stage as the interior of the chamber is filled with a mixture of $SF_6$ that is not liquefacted and remaining air that can not be ventilated. The ability of $SF_6$ liquid($LSF_6$) insulation is higher than high-pressurize $SF_6$ gas. The VB of the I-Air decreases as the temperature drops and the VB also drops. It is considered that the results of this paper are fundamental data for the electric insulation design of superconductor and cryogenic equipment that will be studied and developed in the future.

In this paper the experiments of breakdown characteristics by temperature change of $SF_6$ gas($GSF_6$), and $SF_6$ liquid ($LSF_6$) in model GIS (Gas Insulated Switchgear) are described. From the experiment's results, the breakdown characteristics classify the vapor stage of $SF_6$ according to Paschen's law, in which the gas & liquid coexisted stage of voltage value increases, resulting in much deviation and the breakdown of voltage ($V_B$) low stage as the interior of the chamber gets filled with a mixture of $SF_6$ that is not liquefacted and remaining air that cannot be ventilated. The ability of $LSF_6$ insulation is higher than the high-pressurized $SF_6$ gas. The breakdown characteristics of $LSF_6$ were produced by bubble formed evaporation of $LSF_6$ and bubbles caused by high electric emission. It is considered in this paper that the results are fundamental data for electric insulation design of superconductor and cryogenic equipments machinery that will be studied and developed in the future.

The detection methods are required to monitor and diagnose the abnormality on the insulation condition inside a gas-insulated switchgear (GIS). Due to a good sensitivity to the products decomposed by partial discharges (PDs) in $SF_6$ gas, the development of a SWNT gas sensor is actively in progress. However, a few numerical studies on the diffusion mechanism of the $SF_6$ decomposition products by PD have been reported. In this study, we modeled $SF_6$ decomposition process in a chamber by calculating temperature, pressure and concentration of the decomposition products by using a commercial CFD program in conjunction with experimental data. It was assumed that the mass production rate and the generation temperature of the decomposition products were $5.04{\times}10^{-10}$ [g/s] and over 773 K respectively. To calculate the concentration equation, the Schmidt number was specified to get the diffusion coefficient functioned by viscosity and density of $SF_6$ gas instead rather than setting it directly. The results showed that the drive potential is governed mainly by the gradient of the decomposition concentration. A lower concentration of the decomposition products was observed as the sensors were placed more away from the discharge region. Also, the concentration increased by increasing the discharge time. By installing multiple sensors the location of PD is expected to be identified by monitoring the response time of the sensors, and the information should be very useful for the diagnosis and maintenance of GIS.

With changes in insulated defects, the environment, and so on, new partial discharge (PD) data are highly different from the original samples. It leads to a decrease in on-line recognition rate. The UHF signal and pulse current signal of four kinds of typical artificial defect models in gas insulated switchgear (GIS) are obtained simultaneously by experiment. The relationship map of ultra-high frequency (UHF) cumulative energy and its corresponding apparent discharge of four kinds of typical artificial defect models are plotted. UHF cumulative energy and its corresponding apparent discharge are used as inputs. The support vector machine (SVM) incremental method is constructed. Examples show that the PD SVM incremental method based on simulated annealing (SA) effectively speeds up the data update rate and improves the adaptability of the classifier compared with the original method, in that the total sample is constituted by the old and new data. The PD SVM incremental method is a better pattern recognition technology for PD on-line monitoring.

We have carried out the construction of the 154kV intelligent substation with KEPRI. The Intelligent substation is built in Gochang testing facility of KEPCO and consists of electronic instruments for GIS(gas insulated switchgear), digital control panel, remote monitoring and diagnosis system, and digital relay system. Rogowski coil type CT(RCT) and capacitive voltage divider(CVD) are introduced compared with the instrument transformer of conventional type. Digital control Panel(DCP) replaces the LCP(local control panel) which is drived for mechanical operation. For the monitoring of the condition of GIS and TR, various sensors are used. In this Paper, we mention the synopsis and report the progress state of project.

1962년 당시 중공업 불모지였던 이 땅에 본격적인 중공업 시대를 개막한 효성은 반세기를 훌쩍 넘긴 오늘에 이르기까지 끊임없는 변화와 개혁을 통해 세계적인 기업으로 발전해 왔다. 중전기기 신제품 개발에 힘을 기울여온 효성의 발자취는 우리나라 전력산업의 발전과 궤를 같이 하고 있다고 할 정도로 효성은 국내 전력산업사(史)에 있어 빼놓을 수 없는 존재이다. 154kV 환상망 구축사업의 중추적 역할 수행, 345kV 전력기자재 최초 납품, 765kV 초고압 변압기 국내 최초 개발 및 수출, 800kV급 2점절 초고압 차단기(GIS, Gas Insulated Switchgear) 세계 최초 개발, 1,100kV 극초고압 GIS 국내 최초 순수 독자 개발 등 효성의 초고압 분야는 화려한 역사를 자랑한다. 그러나 최근 들어 세계 초고압 분야의 시장 성장세가 둔화되고 있다. 이에 비단 효성 뿐 아니라 국내 초고압 관련 기업들의 움직임도 주춤한 상태다. 문제는 이러한 난관을 어떻게 빨리 헤쳐 나가느냐에 있는데, 효성이 선택한 방법은 '고객제일주의'와 '신기술 개발'이다. 이는 기본 중의 기본이지만, 이 기본을 준수하기가 얼마나 어려운지는 모두 알 것이다. 즉 50여년 전 아무 것도 없는 중공업 분야에서 새로운 역사를 창조하겠다던 '초심'으로 돌아가 지금부터 다시 새 역사를 써나가겠다는 의지를 불태우고 있는 것이다. 그 중심에 우뚝 서 효성의 초고압 전력 분야를 책임지고 있는 전력 퍼포먼스유니트를 소개한다.

Ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB), narrow bandwidth (single frequency), and a combination of both technologies have been studied for the ultra-high frequency (UHF) partial discharge (PD) monitoring system as a detection scheme. We have experimentally compared those detection methods using a mock-up of 362 kV class single phase gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) and a stable PD source. A rolling-ball type PD cell that produces PDs of about 10 pC, is placed at one end of the GIS. An internal UHF PD sensor was attached several meters away from the PD source. The PD spectrum was measured up to 3 GHz. A useable bandwidth of more than 1 GHz was used to measure UWB signals from the PD. To simulate the narrow bandwidth scheme a bandwidth of 100 kHz centered at several different frequencies was used.

본 논문은 패러데이 효과(Faraday Effect)에 의한 초고압 전력설비에서의 광CT 특성에 대한 기초 연구를 기술하였다. 광원은 LD(Laser Diode : 830[nm])를 사용하고, 수신부는 PIN-Photodiode론 사용하였다. 광의 전송로는 파이버 내에서 편광상태론 유지할 수 있는 싱글모드 광파이버를 사용하였고, 광파이버의 양끝은 편광자와 검광자를 두어 빛의 광학적인 편파면을 이용한 전류측정이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 측정 결과에서는 기존 문헌상의 결과와 동일한 형태의 출력을 얻을 수 있었고 나아가서는 초고압전력설비인 가스절연개폐장치 (GIS: Gas Insulated Switchgear)에 대한 적용도 가능하게 했다.

The paper presents experimental results of Partial Discharge(PD) in Gas Insulated Switchgear(GIS), obtained using a computer-aided PD measurement system. Different discharge sources are simulated and identified. These included internal, interface, surface and protrusion. For internal discharge, it showed symmetrical discharge type between positive and negative cycle. Interface discharge showed smaller number and higher peak than internal discharge but symmetrical discharge as well. For surface discharge, it showed small number and high peak in positive half cycle but large number and low peak in negative half cycle. For protrusion discharge, small number and high peak of discharge were shown only in negative half cycle.
