[ $SF_6$ ] gas for compacted power facilities has a important role as an insulation gas. It is very blown well that $SF_6$ gas has the superior characteristics as an insulation gas. For reliable operation of SF6-gas-based high and medium voltage equipment it is very important to keep the insulation ability within a safe range. And the experimental and measuring system were implemented. The test chamber designed to endure up to 3 atmospheric pressure. The analysis results of the experimental data shows that positive partial discharge can be detected by discharge current and UHF signal. Additionally it is shown the possibility that $CO_2$ gas sensor of semiconductor type can be detect the variation of $SF_6$ gas condition. The UHF sensor shows good feature to detect the variation of $SF_6$ gas condition for partial discharge and breakdown discharge.

We have developed the external-type PD sensors for detecting of the ultra high frequency (UHF) signals in various type of GIS. Sufficiently high sensitivity and accuracy for practical use were achieved for the PD sensor. The experience at the fields and the criteria for the judgment are also discussed in detail.

It is very important to discriminate noises such as air corona in measuring on-site partial discharges (PD). Therefore, in order to investigate the possibility of separating PD(partial discharge) and noises through the pulse analysis, pulse shapes measured by a resistive sensor and a HFCT were analyzed and PA(pulse analysis) were performed. For the purpose, the HFPD detection and PA system has been developed. Also void discharges and air corona were adopted as the artificial defect and noises, respectively.

Partial discharges (PDs) are electrical sparks that occur inside insulation between two conducting electrodes and can lead to the disastrous failure of insulation systems. To determine the location of a PD, a distributed array of UHF PD sensors is used to detect the electromagnetic (EM) signals emitted from the PD source, and the localization of the PD source can be estimated using the time difference of arrival (TDOA) between EM signals captured by the UHF PD sensor array. There are four popular methods to estimate the TDOA-the first peak method, the cross-correlation method, the energy criterion method, and the average time window threshold method. In this work, we numerically investigate the influence of noise on estimating the TDOA for the four different methods. Numerical results show that the energy criterion method is more robust against noise than other methods.

In general, CT and Shunt have been traditionally used as a sensor for detecting the partial discharges in order to diagnose the present insulation state of the electric power apparatus. The former is very convenient for the practical application since it is not only non-contact method but its frequency bandwidth and resonance frequency could be designed for its specific application. However, it has been proved to have poor linearity and low sensitivity. For the latter, even though it is an ideal sensor, noise from the power source and the ground could flow into the system. Furthermore, the surge current could be easily come into the measuring systems giving rise to a severe breakdown. In this respect, a hybrid sensor has been designed and fabricated in order to overcome the shortcoming of these two types of sensors. For this purpose, the experimental comparison with commercialized products has been also carried out. In this concept of the hybrid sensor, two different impedances could provide the passage of the signals. In this way, the discrimination of the noise could be accomplished very effectively with high ratio of signal over noise(S/N) under the little influence from the external noises and the breakdown.

We have developed the external-type PD sensors for detecting of the electromagnetic waves up to ultra high frequency (UHF) bands, propagating in various type of GIS. Sufficiently high sensitivity and accuracy for practical use were achieved for the external PD sensor. The experience at the fields and the criteria for the judgment are also discussed in detail.

This paper describes the prediction of location of PD signals in GIS using the difference in the measured time between first and second wave arrival by the external-type PD sensors. It is well accepted that the electromagnetic wave in GIS propagates at the velocity of $3{\times}10^8$m/s. Consequently, we could identify the location of PD with high accuracy. The experience at the fields and the problems for the judgment are also discussed in detail.

The UHF electromagnetic waves excited by PD pulses propagate along the GIS busbar not only TEM mode, but also TE and TM mode. Generally the waves detected by the UHF sensors are those of high order modes and such waves can only propagate the higher than cut-off frequency. In this paper, computed cut-off frequency of 362[kV] GIS by each modes and simulated electromagnetic field of each propagation modes by FEM(Finite Element Method) program. Frequency band of each TEmn/TMmn modes were determinated by simulation results and were discussed optimal position of UHF sensor from this results.

UHF기법을 적용한 GIS 부분방전 진단 시스템은 가스절연 개폐장치(GIS: Gas Insulated Switchgear) 내부에서 발생하는 부분방전 신호를 측정하여 부분방전 원인을 진단한다. 이러한 부분방전 진단 시스템은 부분방전 신호를 UHF 대역의 고주파/위상 영역에서 분석하여 Digital 신호로 변환하기 때문에 고가의 분석 장비가 필요하므로 시스템의 설치 및 유지 보수비용이 많다. 따라서 부분방전 진단 시스템의 설치에 대하여 대중화하기 어려우며 GIS의 이상 상태가 발생하기 전에는 측정 데이터의 활용이 미비하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 부분방전 시스템의 설치비용을 절감하고자 센서의 측정을 시간별로 변경하여 측정하는 염가형 부분방전 진단 시스템의 구성에 대하여 기술하며 대용량 데이터의 관리 방안에 대하여 기술한다.
