본 연구에서는 국내 배전계통에 사용 중인 전력케이블에 대한 평균열화평가시스템을 개발하였다. 절연진단의 최소한의 목적은 전력공급의 중단을 초래할 수 있는 열화 즉, 사고가능성이 논은 전력케이블을 효율적으로 선별하고 경제적으로 관리하는데 있다. 따라서 이러한 최소한의 진단 목표를 달성하기 위한 가장 효율적인 진단원리로 열화시정수법을 채택하고 감쇠전압을 측정변수로 하여 진단설비를 개발하였다. 현장적용성 시험 및 파괴강도 시험 결과 열화상태 평가결과와 파괴강도의 상관관계를 확인하였으며 본 연구를 통해 개발된 진단장치는 사고를 초래할 수 있는 열화의 효율적이고 경제적인 선별 및 관리에 유용한 설비가 될 수 있음을 알았다.

We have developed the global assessment system for medium voltage power cable systems. Our purpose of diagnostic activity is the economic discrimination and maintenance of bad cables which is likely to cause cable system failure. We have atapted the Voltage Decay Method to construct the power cable assessment system for our diagnostic purpose. From the field application test results, we have concluded that our system is successful and convenient for the discrimination and maintenance of the damaged cables economically.

Intelligent distribution equipment is inevitable to realize self-healing which is one of smart grid functions in distribution network. Therefore, most of distribution equipment have been developed with self diagnostic sensors. However, it is not effective to construct on-line monitoring system for underground distribution cable because of high cost and low sensitivity. Recently, optical fiber composite cable is being considered for communication and power delivery in order to cope with increasing communication in distribution network. This paper presents the design and performance assessment results of underground cable on-line monitoring system using DTS(Distributed Temperature Sensing) and optical fiber composite underground cable.

As power demand increases gradually, the call for underground transmission system increases. But it is very difficult and high in cost to construct new ducts and/or tunnels for power cables in metropolitan areas. HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) cable has the several useful characteristics such as increased power density, stronger magnetic fields and/or reduced losses. Therefore HTS cable can allow more power to be moved in existing ducts, which means very large economical and environmental benefits. In these days, companies world-wide have conducted researches on HTS cable. A development project for a 22.9kV class HTS cable is proceeding at a research center and university in Korea. In this paper, we investigate the expected price of HTS cable to have a merit in viewpoint of economic aspect. First, life-cycle cost of conventional cable is calculated and based on this, the expected price of HTS cable is evaluated, which HTS cable is competitive against conventional cable.

A reliability model of wind farm located in mountainous land with complex terrain, which considers the cable and wind turbine (WT) failures, is proposed in this paper. Simple wake effect has been developed to be applied to the wind farm in mountainous land. The component failures in the wind farm like the cable and WT failures which contribute to the wind farm power output (WFPO) and reliability is investigated. Combing the wind speed distribution and the characteristic of wind turbine power output (WTPO), Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is used to obtain the WFPO. Based on clustering algorithm the multi-state model of a wind farm is proposed. The accuracy of the model is analyzed and then applied to IEEE-RTS 79 for adequacy assessment.

The photovoltaic power system is performing power generation by being installed in outdoors. Therefore it has the characteristics affected by environmental factors. In particular, if the solar power generation facility connected to the grid, the power can be generated continuously in a state of being secured operating voltage of the inverter and solar irradiation. In that case, if an abnormal situation such as flooding or heavy rains has occur, the possibility of electric shock or damage of facilities due to current leakage or a floating matters is present. In this paper, we performed electrical safety assessment about the connection part, junction box and cable of the solar module when the solar power system was flooded. we also assessed whether or not the leakage current is occurred in case of the cable was damaged. As a result, in case of the leakage current is large, we can be known that it is the risk of electric shock as well as cause of inverter damage.

본 논문에서는 육상의 지중전력케이블에 비해 유지보수가 힘들고 사고의 파급효과나 사고복구에 큰 어려움이 따르는 해저케이블을 대상으로 진단시험 및 유지보수에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 사고위험이 높은 해저선로에 대한 경제적이고 효율적인 열화진단 및 유지보수에 있다. 진단시험 결과, 해저케이블의 열화정도는 매우 심각하며 열화가 계속 진전되고 있음을 확인하였다. 단말부 교체시공 후 재 진단시험을 실시한 결과, 전체적인 열화상태가 개선되었음을 확인하였으며 단말부 및 케이블 절연부에 대한 전기적 특성시험과 화학구조분석 시험 결과, 전체 케이블 시스템의 열화는 주로 단말부 열화에 기인함을 알았다. 상기 결과에 따라 본 연구에 사용된 진단기법 및 유지보수 절차가 해저케이블시스템의 경제적인 관리에 매우 효과적임을 학인하였다.

In this work, we have conducted insulation aging assessment and maintenance for submarine medium voltage power cable systems to discriminate and maintain bad cables economically. We have found that aging status of submarine cable systems are very poor and in progress. We have found that insulation status were improved with the replacement of cable terminations. We have confirmed with the electrical and structural analysis of terminations, that the poor aging status of cables are mainly caused not by the cable insulations but by the aging of cable terminations. From the above results, we have also confirmed that the domestic diagnostic system is successful and convenient for the discrimination and maintenance of the damaged cables economically.

Design & operation power systems for meeting increase of electric power demand is becoming more difficult and complex. Some of limitations of conventional technology can be broken through by the application of superconductivity technology. This paper presents a new concept & image for the configuration of superconducting power system which has introduced superconducting(SC) generator, cable, transformer, fault current limiter(SFCL), SMES, etc. Engineering evaluation of each power apparatus and its assessment of application to power system were conducted. Futhermore, it is pointed that superconducting power system require a new operating condition. This is, SFCL should play a important part of quenching current level coordination to prevent the other superconducting devices from quenching. Its designing & operating condition including SFCL was discussed in viewpoint of quenching current level and insulation coordination of SC coil.
