가스 절연 개폐장치(Gas Insulated Switchgear : GIS)의 고체 스페이서에 경사기능성 재료(Functionally Graded Material : FGM)를 적용할 때, 전계의 완화를 예상할 수 있다. 특히, 균일 유전율 분포를 가지는 스페이서에서 양극 근처에 집중된 높은 전계가 FGM 스페이서를 사용할 때, 스페이서와 $SF_6$ 가스의 접촉부로 옮겨지며, 그 크기가 완화됨을 확인할 수 있었다[1]. 본 연구에서는 상용 고체 스페이서의 양극 부근에서의 전계 집중을 감소시키기 위해 전극 형상의 최적화를 수행하였다. 최적화 기법으로는 완전계승계획법(Full Factorial Design : FFD)과 결합된 반응표면법(Response Surface Method : RSM)을 이용하였으며, 균일 유전율 스페이서에서 양극 형상을 최적화하였다. 또한 타원형 유전율 분포를 가지는 FGM 스페이서를 이용함으로써, 상용 GIS 모델에 비해 최대 전계가 크게 완화될 수 있음을 확인하였으며, 상용 GIS의 외함부의 크기를 줄여 실제 소형화 가능 여부를 확인하였다.

KEPCO has a plan to operate 765kV electric power network from June, 2001, by the KEPCO's plan. We have developed the extra-high voltage class equipments for 765kV substation. Inpecial, we have proceeded the developments of 800kV Gas Insulated Switchgear from January 1998 to now. Until now we completed the test of a general characteric tests of GIS, the short-circuit test of GCB. DS. ES. HSGS.

With the increase of electric power demand in the downtown area. many problems, such as the difficulty in security of substation site and interference of the electromagnetic wave or damage to person due to outdoor type substation facilities has been occured. Therefore, the compaction of substation facilities is required and the gas insulated switchgear(GIS) has been adopted accordingly. However, much care should be taken of the interface problem between cable and GIS. This paper describes the failure analysis and a countmeasure for prevent ion from failure in the interface.

GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear:가스절연 개폐장치)는 절연성능이 뛰어난 $SF_6$가스로 절연되어 초고압 전력의 제어(차단,투입)를 담당하는 중요한 장치이다. GIS는 절연성능을 검증하기 위하여 현장 운전전에 공장검수시험(내전압시험)과 현장 가압 시험을 수행한다. 이 때 GIS의 조립/운반/설치의 오류로 인한 절연성능 저하로 절연파괴(내부아크)가 발생될 수 있다. 그러나 GIS는 $SF_6$가스로 밀폐되어 있어 절연파괴를 정확히 알 수 없을 뿐만 아니라 사고 위치를 확인하기 어렵다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이런 문제를 해결하기 위하여 GIS 내부에서 발생되는 사고를 신속하게 탐지하고 위치를 정확하게 표정할 수 있도록 개발된 GIS 절연파괴 위치 추정 시스템의 현장 적용연구를 수행하였다. 이를 통해 GIS 절연파괴 위치 추정 시스템의 성능을 확인하였다.

This paper dealt with a defect identification algorithm which is based on single partial discharge (PD) pulse analysis in gas insulated structure. Four types of electrode systems such as a needle-plane, a plane-needle, a free particle and a crack inside spacer were fabricated to simulate defects in gas insulated switchgear (GIS). We measured single PD pulse by an oscilloscope with a sampling rate of 5 GS/s and a frequency bandwidth of 1 GHz. Data aquisition and signal processing were controlled by a LabVIEW program. Physical shapes of PD pulses were compared with kurtosis, skewness and time-based parameters as rising time, falling time and pulse-width. These parameters were analysed by an algorithm with a back propagation algorithm (BPA). By applying the algorithm, the identification rate was 97% for the needle-plane electrode, 96% for the plane-needle electrode, 91% for the free particle and 93% for the crack inside spacer. The results verified that the algorithm could identify the type of defects in GIS.

In order to evaluate the structural safety from an earthquake, the seismic analysis of large structures such as GIS in electric power substations and equipments for nuclear power plant has been carried out because the seismic qualification by experiment is very expensive. This paper presents the seismic analysis of the 72.5kV GIS produced by LGIS. The finite element model of the GIS is developed and analyzed using ANSYS. The model consists of beam elements for the enclosures and mass elements for the conductors and the mechanisms. Using the transient analysis under seismic load, the structural safety is verified.

In view of the fact that gas insulated switchgear (GIS) is an important piece of equipment in a substation, it is highly desirable to continuously monitor the state of equipment by measuring the partial discharge (PD) activity in a GIS, as PD is a symptom of an insulation weakness/breakdown. However, since the PD signal is relatively weak and the external noise makes detection of the PD signal difficult, it therefore requires careful attention in its detection. In this paper, the algorithm for detection of PD in the GIS using the wavelet transform (WT) is proposed. The WT provides a direct quantitative measure of the spectral content and dynamic spectrum in the time-frequency domain. The most appropriate mother wavelet for this application is the Daubechies 4 (db4) wavelet. 'db4', the most commonly applied mother wavelet in the power quality analysis, is very well suited to detecting high frequency signals of very short duration, such as those associated with the PD phenomenon. The proposed algorithm is based on utilizing the absolute sum value of coefficients, which are a combination of D1 (Detail 1) and D2 (Detail 2) in multiresolution signal decomposition (MSD) based on WT after noise elimination and normalization.

The gas insulation switchgear, which is a device for protecting a power system, cannot be supported by the insulation gas itself in a charge unit stored in a metal container. Therefore, molding technology is required to manufacture a gas insulation switch spacer. The APG method injection molding simulation was performed by applying the variables obtained through the physical properties of an epoxy composite used for manufacturing an insulating spacer to a moldflow software. After varying the temperature conditions of heater in the simulation, the thermal characteristics and the degree of hardening of the spacer were analyzed, based on which the optimum process conditions are presented.

A developed 800kV class composite hollow insulator for $SF_6$ Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) was tested as to insulation with their surfaces contaminated. The wet power frequency withstand voltage of the silicone rubber housing was about 135kV at an equivalent salt deposite density of $5kg/m^2$, to sufficiently satisfy the required performance. According to IEC 60507, the salt fog withstand voltage was measured at 565kV, and the highest measured leakage current was below 0.2mA. Therefore, it was clarified that the composite hollow insulator has sufficient insulation performance even when it is contaminated on the surface.
