In the present paper, a new type of electrical actuator, an electromagnetic force driving actuator (EMFA), applicable to air circuit breaker is developed and analyzed. Transient analysis is performed to obtain the dynamic characteristics of EMFA. The distribution of static magnetic flux is obtained using the finite element method. The coupled problems of electrics and mechanics governing equations are solved using the time-difference method. According to the interception rate of each contactor, investigation of the contactor spring load condition is conducted and applied to the threelink system. Comparisons of the dynamic characteristics of the three-link simulation and experimental data are performed.

The mechanical endurance is the critical characteristic of Magnetic contactors (MCs), which are widely used in such industrial equipments as elevators, cranes, and factory control rooms in order to close and open the control circuit. Testing time, however, is so long in most cases that some method of reducing the testing period is required. Therefore, the degradation test by the detected vibration of MCs is developed to reduce the testing time in this work. The degradation test data are analyzed and the prediction model is provided. Also, the possibility of this technology for Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) will be shown. This will reduce the period of the product development and raise the reliability of the equipment in power distribution.

This paper compare the Townsend theory with the Molten metal bridge theory of Holm for the arc discharge at opening contacts. And we measured the arc voltage at opening contacts of the 3 types arc extinction unit used in DC magnetic contactor. So, we sure that the molten metal bridge contributes to form the arc. By the experiment of the 3 types arc extinction unit, we know that the magnetic force acting on the arc doesn't effect forming arc but contribut the arc extinction.

Magnetic contactors (MCs) are widely used in industrial equipment such as elevators, cranes and factory control rooms in order to close and open the control circuits. The reliability of MCs mainly depend on mechanical durability and international standards such as IEC 60947-4-1, which stipulates the testing method for MCs. Testing time, however, is so long in usual cases that a method of reducing testing time is required. Therefore, a temperature and voltage-accelerated life testing (ALT) method has been developed to reduce the testing time in this work. The accelerated life test data are analyzed and acceleration factors (AFs) are provided.

The model interrupters of $SF_6$ gas electromagnetic contactor whose ratings are the voltage of 7.2kV and the short circuit current of 4.0kA have been designed and manufactured on the basis of theoretical and computational analysis for its development. The eddy current analysis, the magnetic field analysis and the calculation of the rotational force on arcs have been conducted using FLUX2D package. The short circuit current interrupting tests have been conducted to the model interrupters using the simplified capacitive synthetic test circuit in KERI. The results show that the model interrupters have a sufficient interrupting capability and the new design concept is proper for a good interrupting performance.

The reactor protection system (RPS) of HANARO is a safety class system. The reactor is tripped by dropping four shut off rods (SOR). The SOR system consists of a SOR, hydraulic pump, hydraulic cylinder, solenoid valves and a power supply unit which has the AC coil contactor as a switching component. The hydraulic pump lifts up the SOR. The SOR drops by loss of the hydraulic pressure in the hydraulic circuit at the occurrence of voltage sags or interruptions. From this experiment, we knew that the magnitude of the voltage sag which impacts on this system is 70V, 500msec. The reactor regulation system (RRS) of HANARO has four CARs which are connected to the driver through a magnetic clutch. The CAR drops by loss of electromagnetic force of the magnetic clutch when the deeper voltage sags to lower than 10V, 500msec.

Electrical endurance is the critical characteristic of Magnetic contactors(MCs), which are widely used in such power equipment as elevators, cranes, and factory control rooms in order to close and open control circuits. Testing time, however, is not short in typical cases in which some method of reducing the testing period is required. This study shows the method of determining the stress level of electrical ALT(Accelerated Life Test) through optical temperature sensor and the relationship between 0.05 s and 0.1 s for on-time. The tool used for analyzing the test result is MINITAB. I will propose the method of determining the optimized stress level through optical temperature sensor, which will contribute to minimize the testing time and development period and also raise the product reliability.

This paper presents a study on the analysis of impact responses taking into account sensor dynamics. The contact force between impacting bodies is modelled by using Hertz force-displacement law and linear damping function. Since the real impact force and acceleration at the contact surface of two colliding bodies are measured indirectly by the sensors, the measured outputs can be a little different from the real impact responses. Therefore, in this study, the importance of consideration of sensor dynamics in the impact problems of two colliding bodies is emphasized. In order to verify the appropriateness of the proposed contact force model, the drop type impact test using two kinds of sensors is carried out. Through the numerical analysis and experiment, the effect of sensor dynamics and characteristics on the contact force model is investigated.

This paper analyze customers' effect caused by momentary voltage variation. Momentary voltage variation is due to a serious results like shutdown of sensitive loads such as electronic equipment, computer, and magnetic contactor. However, conventional reliability ignored the effect of momentary voltage variation. In this paper we analyze the present state of momentary voltage variation in customers.

For the supported high-technology, it is in need of estimation about power quality and reasonable price through machinism. The power system made much of precision digital industrial damage under sag. This study suggested electric machine under effects of power quality in the theory and test. A electric machine was simulated and experimented about sag. The test system made up IPC as voltage sag device. The test machine was magnetic contactor and PLC. The result, electric machines appeared to influence sag with CBEMA curve. It was make possible analysis of power system about a fault. This study was expected to method that investment and development of equipment on power market in the future.
