This study investigated variation leakage current maximum value and waveform considering applied voltage phase angel by simulating three environmental conditions, such as fog, salt fog, and kaolin contamination .As the result of applied voltage phase angel characteristics, leakage currents presented almost in phases in the early stage regardless of environmental conditions just after applying the voltage, and the phase of leakage currents certain phase lags for the discharge of the applied voltage when surface discharges occurred due to the continuous environmental contamination. In addition, the difference in phase significantly increased according to the intensity of discharges. The change in distortion rates according to the environmental contamination presented a nearly same level just after applying the voltage. The distortion rate of third harmonic for the fundamental wave presented by the order of fog>salt fog>kaolin when surface discharges occurred due to the applied voltage for certain continued periods. In the case of the fog and salt fog, the scale of spectrums decreased according to the increase in frequencies from the results of the analysis of high frequencies. In addition, the even number frequency presented a relatively large level compared to the odd number frequency under the kaolin contamination.

This paper deals with the effect of lightning impulse current on electrical characteristics of ZnO blocks used in distribution lightning arrester. The electrical characteristics of ZnO blocks are degraded by overtime impulse current, and the degraded ZnO block is brought to a thermal runaway and finally destroyed. It is therefore important to estimate the change of electrical characteristics of ZnO blocks. In this study, an impulse current generator which can produce 8/20$[\mus]$, 3[㎄] and 4/10$[\mus]$, 5[㎄] waveform is designed and fabricated to simulate the lightning impulse current of power systems. Total energy applied to the ZnO blocks at each time is 739[J] in 8/20$[\mus]$, and 523[J] in 4/10$[\mus]$, impulse current, respectively. From the experimental results, the 3rd harmonic of the leakage current increases continuously with the number of applied impulse current, but no significant changes in residual voltage and in reference voltage are observed until the ZnO block is destroyed. Also, it is confirmed that the main factor on degradation of ZnO blocks is rather the total energy applied to ZnO blocks than the peak value of the impulse current.

This paper reports the investigation results on the leakage currents (LC) on polymeric outdoor insulators. The samples used were EPDM (ethylene prophylene diene monomer) insulators used at 20 kV distribution lines. AC voltage was applied and the LC waveforms were measured under various environmental conditions (humidity and pollution). Digital data of the LC was transferred from a digital storage oscilloscope to a computer for further analysis. The LC waveform parameters such as magnitude and harmonic content (as indicated by the total harmonic distortion (THD)) were analyzed. The experimental results showed that 3rd, 5th and 7th harmonics and higher odd harmonics were observed for symmetrical-distorted LC waveforms while for unsymmetrical-distorted LC waveforms, odd and even harmonics were observed. The LC analysis indicated that there are 5 stages of insulator conditions from normal condition up to flashover correlated with different kind of LC waveforms. The results also showed that in general the magnitude of LC was good enough to show the condition of the insulators. However, under discharge condition (for example as a result of dry band arching) the LC magnitude should be combined by the THD to show a better correlation with the insulator condition. The product between THD and LC magnitude may be used as a diagnostic parameter.

This paper describes the current characteristics of outage generator for microgrid in outage mode operation. The outage can be generated with 3-phase voltage disturbance generator. The STS current becomes very huge during the first cycle of the outage, and the magnitude of the current depends on the time impedance, series transformer leakage inductance, interfacing reactor of PCS, and the maximum allowable PCS output current. The current and load voltage waveform are analysed through simulation.

An algorithm was developed to detect and block serial arc currents using HPF. The AC series arc problem is that the load current is greater than the fault current and no leakage current occurs. As a solution, an arc detection method utilizing differences in high- frequency amplitudes was developed. HPT was applied to the load current and FFT was applied to eliminate low frequencies. An algorithm has been developed to detect arc waveforms when they exceed a certain value compared to the average of normal waveforms. Using one cycle of data, arc detection is faster and arc accidents are prevented.

고조파에 의한 누전차단기 동작이 계속적으로 보고되어 왔으나 누전차단기 동작을 설명할 수 있는 자료가 없는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 누전차단기에 대한 고조파 영향을 규명하기 위해 누전차단기 오동작 현황에 대한 조사 및 누전차단기 원인불명 동작이 자주 발생하는 건물에서 고조파를 측정 및 분석하였다. 또한 왜곡된 파형을 발생시킬 수 있는 고조파 합성장치를 이용하여 누전차단기 동작 특성을 시험하였다. 시험결과 3차 고조파가 기본파에 합성되었을 때 가장 작은 값의 누설전류에 누전 차단기가 동작되었고 기본파에 더해진 고조파 차수가 증가할 수 록 누전차단기 동작전류는 증가하였다.

We investigated the tracking and erosion resistance of the silicone rubber by Inclined-Plane Method. And, with the variation of the accelerated conditions such as the applied voltage and composition of contaminant, the change of the tracking characteristics according to such conditions was evaluated. The leakage current significantly increases with the increasing voltage, but the weight loss remains almost the same. The voltage above 5.0 kV isn't recommended because tracking breakdown occurs as fast as it does without erosion, and the typical discharge waveform was the form of rectifying wave.

전력 변환 시스템의 고효율, 고전력 밀도를 위한 많은 연구가 활발하게 되어 왔다. 스위칭 주파수를 높임으로써 컨버터의 소형화 및 경량화를 꾀할 수 있으나 스위칭 주파수를 높이게 되면 스위칭 손실이 증가하게 된다. 따라서 스위칭 손실을 저감하기 위한 기법이 적용되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이 중 부가적인 회로 없이 변압기의 누설 인덕턴스와 스위치의 출력 커패시터를 이용하여 영전압 스위칭이 가능한 영전압 스위칭(Zero-Voltage Switching) 위상천이(Phase Shift) 풀 브리지 컨버터를 이용하여, 영전압 위상천이 풀 브리지 컨버터의 동작원리를 해석하고 2kW의 출력을 갖는 영전압 스위칭 풀 브리지 컨버터를 설계한다. 각 모드별 동작을 스위치 도통 상태와 전압 전류 파형으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 영전압 스위칭이 도통 스위치들의 각 쌍 사이의 위상 변화에 의해 최대 효율을 달성하는 것을 확인하였다. 제안된 영전압 위상천이 풀 브리지 컨버터 설계를 검증하기 위해 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 툴인 PowerSIM사의 PSIM을 이용하여 설계된 2kW 출력 전력을 갖는 영전압 스위칭 위상천이 풀 브리지 컨버터의 성능을 확인하였고, 실험을 통해 연구의 타당성을 입증하였다.
