To study the basic research of the lightning parameters for power system operation, LPATS(Lightning Positioning and Tracking System) has been introduced since 1995 in KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Corporation). We have developed the lightning parameters analysis program which can produce accumulative magnitude distribution of lightning current and IKL map by LPATS data. We obtained the various statistical distributions of lightning current parameters since 1996 by the lightning analysis program for the pertinent insulation design. In this paper, we describe the LPATS system in KEPCO, the statistical distribution of lightning current parameters and the IKL(Isokeraunic Level) map from 1996 to 1998. And the compared results between the calculated LFOR(lightning flashover rate) and the observed rate are also described.

This paper presents the parameters optimization technology for generating the first short stroke lightning current waveform($10/350{\mu}s$) which is necessary for the performance tests of components of lightning protection systems, as required under IEC 62305 and the newly amended IEC 62561. The circuit using the crowbar device specified in IEC 62305 was applied to generate the lightning current waveform. To find the proper parameters of the circuit is not easy because the circuit consists of two parts; circuit I, which relates to the front of current waveform, and circuit II, which relates to the tail. A simulation in PSpise was carried out to find main factors related to the front and tail of $10/350{\mu}s$. The lightning current generator was developed by utilizing the circuit parameters found in the simulation. In the result of experiments, new parameters of the circuits need to be changed because of the difference between the simulation and the experiment results. Using the iterative method, the optimized parameters of the circuits was determined. Also a multistage-type external coil and a damping resistor were proposed to make the efficiency of generation to enhance. According to the result in this paper, an optimized first short stroke lightning current waveform was obtained.

Lightning induced faults accounts for more than 66% at the transmission lines of KEPCO. The lightning causes damages to power system equipments including transmission line, the shut down of electricity and the electro-magnetic interference. Because of this reason, we need the real time lightning information for the optimal operation of power system. And, it is required to obtain and accumulate the lightning current parameters for the insulation design. A lightning detection system, LPATS, has been operated since 1995 in KEPCO. For the improved detection efficiency, we had in stalled the new lightning detection network named as KLDNet in 2005. Also, we had developed the new software for the lightning parameters analysis and real time information service on the WEB. In this paper, we would like to introduce about the new system.

Because the overhead transmission lines are exposed to the outdoor weather, the faults of the transmission lines are due to natural conditions, and among these faults, the outage rate by lightning is about 50%. The lightning causes the damage of power system equipments, the shut down of electricity and the electro-magnetic interference. Therefore, the pertinent insulation design is important, not only to decrease the damage of the facility itself but also to increase the reliability of electric power system. For these reasons, we have to obtain and accumulate the lightning current parameters for the basic lightning research. This paper describes the statistical distribution of lightning current parameters and the IKL map.

As the overhead transmission lines are exposed to the outdoor weather, the causes of the transmission lines faults are from natural conditions, and among these faults, the outage rate due to lightning is more than 60%. The lightning causes the damage of power system equipments, the shut down of electricity and the electro-magnetic interference. Therefore, the pertinent insulation design is important, not only to decrease the damage of the facility itself but also to increase the reliability of electric power system.

This paper describes the lightning surge analysis model of extra high voltage GIS using EMTP. Various lightning current parameters were investigated in order to confirm the impact on the lightning surge analysis such as lightning current amplitude, waveform, size of GIS, tower footing resistance and surge arresters. The multi-story tower model and EMTP/TACS model were introduced for the simulation of dynamic arc characteristics. The margin between the maximum overvoltage and BIL of the GIS was about 10 percent and the margin between the maximum overvoltage and BIL of the transformer was 21 percent.

This paper describes the characteristics of lightning-induced voltages on subscriber telecommunication lines in Korea. Lightning parameters such as peak voltage, rise time, decay time, and steepness of the wave front were statistically analyzed from the measured results obtained using a waveform memory system. An induced voltage measurement system was also developed and installed at 286 sites in Korea to collect the induced voltage data. The distributions of lightning-induced voltages were also analyzed using these data.

본 논문은 낙뢰에 의해 전송 선로에 유기되는 유도뢰 전압을 해석하고 낙뢰 위치 및 선로 길이에 따른 유도뢰 전압의 크기, 파두장, 파미장 등에 대한 낙뢰 파라미터 변화를 분석하였다. 분석한 결과를 확인하기 위해 실제 통신 선로를 대상으로 유도뢰 전압을 측정하였다. 선로 길이가 길어짐에 따라 그리고 낙뢰 위치가 선로와 멀어짐에 따라 파두장, 파미장이 증가하는 경향을 확인하였다. 전체 선로 길이보다는 가공 선로 길이가 상대적으로 유도 전압 크기에 영향을 끼침을 확인하였다.
