A transmission class high-temperature superconducting(HTS) power cable system is being developed in Korea. For insulation design of this cable the grading method of insulating paper is proposed. Two kinds of laminated polypropylene paper that has different thickness has been used as the electrical insulation material. The use of graded insulation gives improved mechanical bending properties of the cable. In a HTS cable technology the terminations are important components. A HTS cable termination is energized with the line-to-ground voltage between the coaxial center and outer surrounding conductors. in the axial direction. There is also a temperature difference from ambient to about 77 K. For insulation design of this termination, glass fiber reinforced plastic(GFRP) was used as the insulation material of the termination body, and the capacitance-graded method is proposed. This paper will report on the experimental investigations on impulse breakdown and surface flashover characteristics of the insulation materials for insulation design of a transmission class HTS power cable and termination. Based on these experimental data, the electrical insulation design of a transmission class HTS power cable and termination was carried out.

In this paper, a fire resistance test was carried out in accordance with the change of the insulation conditions on the exposed side and unexposed side of a coaming to obtain the optimal insulation conditions for class H-120 insulation in connection with specimen1 of the preceding paper for an evaluation of the fireproof performance of fire dampers according to hydrocarbon fire conditions. In the test results, specimen2(88 mm, $171^{\circ}C$) met the class H-120 insulation conditions, but specimen3(76mm, $181^{\circ}C$) exceeded the thermal insulation acceptance criteria at 110 minutes. Therefore, specimen2(88 mm) represents the optimal insulation conditions as a possible lightweight materialas compared to specimen1. From a comparison of the test results, we concluded that the temperature increase of the coaming insulation surface was influenced by conductive heat from the bulkhead and that the coaming surface was influenced by radiant heat from the blade and coaming.

A 154 kV class high temperature superconducting (HTS) power cable system is developing in Korea. For insulation design or this cable, the grading method of insulating paper is proposed. The use of graded insulation gives improved bending properties of the cable. Therefore, we discussed the electrical stress distribution and calculation for grading insulation design of a HTS cable. Also. the basic insulation design of 154 kV class HTS power cable was done.

This is a study on the insulation methods of home appliances and wiring devices proper to the new electric distribution system, primary side is 22.9/13.2KV, 3 phase 4 wire multigrounding system and secondary side is 380/220V, 3 phase 4 wire common neutral system. 1800V is determined as the electrical insulation voltage of the functional insulation because the abnormal voltage rise of the neutral line is 1300V. In the case of the functional insulation faults, the following safety methods will be suggested to protect the accidental faults: (a) class I appliance (accessible metal part is earthed), (b) class II appliance (doublly insulated), (c) class III appliance (operates at low voltage source). The mechanisms of the wiring devices are not improved to guarantee for the harmful electric shock but also the electrical insulation voltage is rised to 2000V.

This paper examines the insulation performance of synthetic air and dry air. This examination was conducted based on dielectric strength in uniform and non-uniform field, electric field distribution by interior structure and defects in gas insulation switchgear (GIS) and insulation performance in different temperatures. From this review, it was found that eco-insulation gas required to possess low moisture content for power equipment in the distribution class. The results of this paper are valuable to ensure the insulation design and insulation reliability of GIS using air.

Traction motors driven by high speed switching inverters is demanded higher operating temperature, severe duty cycles, higher starting current, frequent voltage transients and finally severe environmental exposure. For applications to inverter duty, traction motors needs a special insulation system, which has characteristics of increased bond strength, lower operating temperature and higher turn-to-turn insulation. In this paper, design considerations and manufacturing procedure of 200 Class insulation system with polyimde(Kapton) main insulation and silicone resin VPI process on the traction motor for EMU will be reviewed. And performance test and long life evaluation test which prove stability and long life evaluation test which prove stability and reliability of insulation system for traction motor will be introduced.

It is important that study on cryogenic electrical insulation design to develop the cold dielectric(CD) type HTS cable because the cable is operated under the high voltage environment in cryogenic temperature. This paper proposes two types of insulation design to carry out the maximum insulation design for 154 kV-class HT cable. The proposed insulation design method takes into consideration AC and lightning impulse withstand voltage so as to prevent AC breakdown for power frequency operating voltage during operating the cable and breakdown for lightning impulse voltage. The final insulation thickness is determined by selecting high value out of two insulation thickness calculated through the two insulation design methods. And we researched electrical insulation characteristics of HTS cable according to bending ratio and the number of bending.

In the response to the demand for electrical energy, much effort was given to develop and commercialize high temperature superconducting (HTS) power equipment has been made around the world. Especially, a HTS transformer is one of the most promising devices. Recently, Korea Polytechnic University and Gyeongsang National University are developing a power distribution and transmission class HTS transformer that is one of the 21st century superconducting frontier projects in Korea. For the development of 154 kV class HTS transformer, the cryogenic insulation technology should be established. We have been analyzed insulation composition and investigated electrical characteristics such as the breakdown of $LN_2$, barrier, kapton films, and the surface flashover of FRP in $LN_2$. Furthermore, we are going to compare with measured each value and apply the value to the most suitable insulating design of the HTS transformer.

The insulation diagnostic test and the AC breakdown test were performed under off-line using the 3.3 kV class induction motor which have been served for 10 years. These tests were conducted in means of nondestructive and destructive test. In this paper, we compared the correlation between the nondestructive and destructive test. Furthermore we setup an experimental condition with moisture and compared the insulation characteristics between moist and dry sample. From the results of the nondestructive and destructive test, it was found that the second AC current, which is the previous step of insulation breakdown, suddenly increased at a point of around 8.5 kV. The insulation breakdown of moist sample occurred at 12-14 kV, which is 4-5 kV lower than dry sample.
