Electrical circuits with semiconductor are very weak against lightning surge. The surge protective devices for electronic circuit and AC power lines are becoming more widely used. To achieve effective method of surge protection, there are needs for correlation between lightning surge and indoor wire length or installation height of indoor wire. The aim of this present work is to investigate the propagation characteristics of lightning surge according to variation of wire length. As a consequence, the maximum voltage at the end of the open wire in proportion to length of indoor wire. Therefore this result may be raw data for establishment of surge protection system.

The importance of improving the quality of electric power is being strongly raised, owing to an increasing use of sensitive and small-sized electronic devices and systems. The transient over-voltages on low-voltage power distribution systems are induced by direct or indirect lightning return strokes. These can cause damage and/or malfunction of the utility systems for home automation, office automation, factory automation, medical automation, etc. The behaviors of lightning overvoltages transferred through the transformer to the low-voltage distribution systems using a Marx generator were experimentally investigated. Furthermore, the coupling mechanisms of lightning overvoltages transferred to the low-voltage systems were clearly illustrated through a theoretical simulation using a Pspice program. The overvoltages in low-voltage ac power systems are rarely limited by the application of the surge arrester to the primary side of the distribution transformer. A superior surge protection scheme is to install surge protection devices at the service entrance switchboard and/or at the load devices in TN power systems.

항공기는 결빙, 난기류, 낙뢰 등 환경적 요인에 의해 안전성을 위협받는다. 그 중 낙뢰는 항공기에 강한 전류와 전압을 유입시켜 고온의 열과 자기장을 발생시키므로 항공기 안정성에 큰 위협이 된다. 본 연구에서는 낙뢰의 발생원리 및 항공기 낙뢰 피격 메카니즘을 설명하고 항공기에 대한 낙뢰의 직접, 간접 영향성을 다룬다. 먼저 항공기 낙뢰 지침서인 ARP를 분석하여 항공기 낙뢰모사와 부착위치에 대한 분석을 진행하였으며, 이를 전산 시뮬레이션에 적용하였다. 또한 ABAQUS 소프트웨어를 활용한 열적, 전기적 시뮬레이션을 통해 연료탱크의 낙뢰 영향성 분석 및 낙뢰보호시스템 설계를 진행하였다. 그리고 Maxwell 방정식에 기초한 EMA3D 소프트웨어를 활용하여 항공기 전기체의 전류 흐름에 대한 전산수치해석을 진행하였다.

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.

In this paper, a study is carried out to investigate the dielectric, physical and chemical properties of Palm Oil (PO) and Coconut Oil (CO) under open thermal ageing condition. The type of PO used in this study is Refined Bleached and Deodorized Palm Oil (RBDPO) Olein. The ageing experiment was carried out at 85 ℃ and 115 ℃ for 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days. Several parameters were measured such as AC breakdown voltage, dielectric dissipation factor, relative permittivity, resistivity, viscosity, moisture and acidity throughout the ageing duration. Based on the study, it is found that there are no significant changes on the AC breakdown voltages and relative permittivities for both RBDPO and CO. At ageing temperature of 115℃, there are clear reduction trends of dielectric dissipation factor for CO and resistivities for most of RBDPO. On the other hand, no clear trends are observed for viscosities, moisture and acidities of RBDPO and CO throughout the ageing duration.

Mineral oil has been widely used as dielectric insulating fluid in transformers due to its excellent performance in-service. However, there are few issues with mineral oil such as it has poor biodegradability and could contaminate the environment if a spillage occurs. With the increasing tight regulation on safety and environment, alternative fluids for mineral oil are currently being investigated and among the suitable candidate is the vegetable oil. There are different types of vegetable oils and one of them is the palm based oil. At the moment, extensive research works are carried out to examine its feasibility to be applied in transformers. This paper will review the previous research works that were carried out to examine the suitability of palm based oil as dielectric insulating fluid in transformers. The physical and chemical properties of palm based oil are studied based on viscosity, acidity, oxidation stability and flash point. Next, the electrical characteristics of palm based oil are examined based on AC breakdown voltage, relative permittivity, dissipation factor and partial discharge.

Studies have claimed that ESE (Early Streamer Emission) air terminals offer a vastly increased zone of protection over that of traditional lightning rods (Franklin rods) by causing the emission of an upward streamer/leader: The upward streamer/leader will propagate towards the tip of the downward leader at an early stage in the attachment process.. This paper shows the results of a performance evaluation test of a particular type of the ESE air terminal (called "ElecHippo") with a simple rod tested at the Korea Electrotechnology Research Institute (KERI). The corona emission current of the ElecHippo made by Yong-Jin Enterprise Corp. has also been measured at the Occupational Safety & Health Research Institute (OSHRI). The results show that the ElecHippo meets the French standard of NFC 17-102-1995. The results also verify the ESE performance by measuring the ion emission current generated in the discharge electrode gap as a function of the capacitance and inductance of the equipped devices. Finally, we propose a new method for grounding the system to reduce the lightning damage by combining the ESE air terminal, the early discharge earth plate, the lightning strike recorder and the surge protection device.

This paper describes the lightning arrester transients in cable head termination. The installation references of cable head tower and lightning arresters are firstly reviewed, then the performance of lightning arrester operation is also evaluated based on lightning overvoltage analysis by the change of grounding lead cable length. This paper finally proposes the optimal length of grounding lead cable at the cable head termination. The limited lightning current is also proposed according to the change of grounding lead cable length. The results will contribute to protecting insulation breakdown failure against lightning surge at the terminations and joints.
