A double line commutation (DLC) type SFCL with first peak limiting function has been proposed for ideal fault current limiting operation. Very fast switching (commutation) without any arc or high voltage problems for any kind of switching device is needed for the first peak current limiting. We've tried to find suitable conditions for a successful switching of a Vacuum Interrupter (VI) with HTS elements as a Peak Current limiting Resistance (PCR).

Lately in KEPCO, the power plant capacity has increasingly become larger than before and it has become difficult to get R.O.W for T/L. Therefore KEPCO decided to increase its system voltage level from 345kV to 765kV. By doing this, KEPCO would like to expand its transmission capability by less T/L route. In 765kV system, we should consider various kinds of environmental impacts that can be neglected in lower voltage level. These environmental impacts are very important factor in T/L design. That can be changed greatly according to the selected conductor. And also conductor selection has relation with the economy of T/L construction directly. This paper deals with some general factors to be considered and basic principles about the conductor and ground wire selection for 765KV T/L with referring to the experiences of foreign utilities.

For effective distribution planning and operation, we need a reliable estimation of operation capacity. But it is difficult to ensure reliability due to the low accuracy of section load data, which is used as a basis in estimating the operation capacity. This paper discusses how to improve the accuracy of section load data by analyzing the existing method of estimating the section load, using statistical techniques to adjust the acquired data, and using the section load estimation algorithm to estimate the section load based on the adjusted data.

The most important function in distribution automation system (DAS) is the service restoration. KEPCO's current service restoration provides a very effective restoration service. However, it has been developed without the consideration of unexpected abnormal conditions that may occur while processing the sequence of switching operations. The objective of this paper is to provide practical service restoration schemes under consideration of abnormal conditions. The proposed service restoration schemes have been integrated to a branch office (B/O) in KEPCO. The proposed method strongly supports the conventional service restoration and adds to its value.

In this study, it has been initiated to investigate the specific abnormal vibration signal that has been captured in the power equipment. Array Microphone can be used in order to detect the direction and the position of the noise source. It is possible to track the abnormal mechanical noise in the power plant by utilizing the program and the microphone array system developed from this research. Array microphone system can be operated as a constant monitoring system.

우리나라 방염 작업복의 역사는 매우 짧다. 외국의 선진 사례에 비교하여 전기아크에 대한 보호구기준 및 제도가 미비한 현실에서 한전이 국내 최초로 방염 작업복을 전직원에게 도입하면서 난연성 작업복의 중요도와 개인 안전에 대한 인식이 새롭게 자리매기고 있다. 한전 방염 작업복의 현주소는 한국을 대표할 뿐만 아니라 세계적 수준에 도달하였으나, 몇가지 풀어야 할 과제를 안고 있다. 디자인을 좀 더 발전시켜 시대적 흐름에 부합하는 좀더 기능적이고도 세련된 작업복의 구현이 그것이다. 이를 위한 원단 및 디자인 개발을 위한 다양한 시도는 앞으로도 꾸준히 계속될 것이다.

The most widely employed grounding apparatus in distribution systems is a driven rod. But this method has some difficulties to get a specified ground resistivity in cities or islands. Recently, the new ground apparatus are proposed. This paper describes the research which relates with the system to evaluate the performance of novel grounding apparatus.

This paper evaluates probabilistic reliability of KEPCO system using TRELSS, which is a probabilistic reliability evaluation program for large-scaled power system. In order to systematically evaluate probabilistic reliability of KEPCO system, contingency cases causing load loss in (N-1) & (N-2) contingency depth was analyzed and reliability indices such as LOLP, EDLC, EENS according to change of FOR was calculated.

Objective of the study is development of 23kV insulating jackets for protection of workers from electrical shock. The breakdown voltage of Ethylene-VinylAcetate copolymers(EVA) films in insulating oil were measured. Insulating jackets were made by the high frequency welding machine, and withstanding voltage test of these were measured. For breakdown voltage at AC 30kV, the number of EVA film with $105{\pm}5{\mu}m$ thickness was 4$\sim$5pieces. When AC 30kV during 3 minutes supplied on the insulating jackets, those were keep on the good quality.
