The power distribution system is 22.9 kV-y neutral point multi-ground one in our country. So, if conducting materials contacted, to the power line electrical equipment faults or stoppage of electrical power supply happened in the line. contacts are caused by magpie or its nest materials, especially, electrical power incidents by magpie from February to May, season layed egg, is high as 30% as. It is important to electrical power supplier to protect electrical power equipment caused by magpie. From now, KEPCO have tried to protect electrical power equipment faults caused by magpie using several methods, but have not acquired good results and continued to withdraw the nest. Recently, nature environment protection expand to around country and KEPCO also changed the nest withdrawal method to new pre-protection method coexisted with magpie, "Environmental Affinitive Pre-protection Counterplan". Therefore, we planned environmental affinitive pre-protection equipment, set test line. Also, after analyzed its effects during 1 year, we satisfied with results, and then expanded to other test lines and regions.

A vibration power minimization model is developed, based on the mobility matrix method, for a vibration isolation system consisting of a vibrating source placed on an elastic support structure through multiple resilient mounts. This model is applied to investigate the design optimization of an X-Y motion stage-based vibration isolation system used in semiconductor wire-bonding equipment. By varying the stiffness coefficients of the resilient mounts while constraining the dynamic displacement amplitudes of the X-Y motion stage, the total power flow from the X-Y motion stage (the vibrating source) to the equipment table (the elastic support structure) is minimized at each frequency interval in the concerned frequency range for different stiffnesses of the equipment table. The results show that when the equipment table is relatively flexible, the optimal design based on the proposed vibration power inimization model gives significantly little power flow than that obtained using a conventional vibration force minimization model at some critical frequencies. When the equipment table is rigid enough, both models provide almost the same predictions on the total power flow.

The increasing application of electronic equipment has heightened the interest in power quality in recent years because there are economic impacts on utilities, customers, and suppliers of load equipment. The power quality would impose result in severe damage on many industrial customers. As having been supplied many kinds of electronic devices such as computer and communication equipment, automation equipment and various kinds of control devices etc., it comes to be more and more difficult to maintain the clean power quality. According to the restructuring in electricity industry the power quality may be treated as goods as contract terms and regulation elements between power supplier and consumer in the near future. Under the above environment, the power quality should be monitored for all day long with appropriate devices which is possible to measure and record the associated power quality data to prove each responsibility for the impacts when disputes arise due to power quality problems power quality problems are occurred. In this paper the authors propose some functions to be considered and system configuration to monitor the associated power quality elements in developing the web based power quality monitoring system.

In the conventional dc-dc converter, a pair of additional diode and the adjacent passive component capacitor/inductor can be added to the circuit with an X-shape connection, which generates a family of new topologies. The novel circuits, also called diode-assisted dc-dc converter, enhance the voltage boost/buck capability and have a great potential for high step-up/step-down power conversions. This paper mainly investigates and compares conventional dc-dc converter and diode-assisted dc-dc converter in wide range power conversion from the aspects of silicon devices, passive components requirements, electro-magnetic interference (EMI) and efficiency. Then, a comprehensive comparison example of a high step-up power conversion system was carried out. The two kinds of boost dc-dc converters operate under the same operation conditions. Mathematical analysis and experiment results verify that diode-assisted dc-dc converters are very promising for simultaneous high efficiency and high step-up/step-down power conversion in distributed power supply systems.

Standby power is the electricity consumed in an electrical equipment when it is switched-off or not performing its main function. Due to the acceleration of digital electronics and home networking, standby power use tends to increase rapidly year by year. In this paper, standby power consumption in residential sector in Korea has been surveyed and reported for the first time. Totally 825 pieces of electrical equipments that consume standby power in 53 households were investigated. The average standby power per equipment and total standby power per household were 3.66W and 57.0W, respectively. Annual standby power consumption per household was estimated 306kWh; which means the standby power consumption in residential sector in Korea can be estimated 4.6TWh a year representing 1.67 percent of total electrical consumption (274TWh).

Rapid and accurate phase synchronization is critical for the reliable control of grid-tied inverters. However, the commonly used software phase-locked loop methods do not always satisfy the need for high-speed and accurate phase synchronization under severe grid imbalance conditions. To address this problem, this study develops a novel open-loop phase locking scheme based on a synchronous reference frame. The proposed scheme is characterized by remarkable response speed, high accuracy, and easy implementation. It comprises three functional cascaded blocks: fast orthogonal signal generation block, fast fundamental-frequency positive sequence component construction block, and fast phase calculation block. The developed virtual orthogonal signal generation method in the first block, which is characterized by noise immunity and high accuracy, can effectively avoid approximation errors and noise amplification in a wide range of sampling frequencies. In the second block, which is the foundation for achieving fast phase synchronization within 3 ms, the fundamental-frequency positive sequence components of unsymmetrical grid voltages can be achieved with the developed orthogonal signal construction strategy and the symmetrical component method. The real-time grid phase can be consequently obtained in the third block, which is free from self-tuning closed-loop control and thus improves the dynamic performance of the proposed scheme. The proposed scheme is adaptive to severe unsymmetrical grid voltages with sudden changes in magnitude, phase, and/or frequency. Moreover, this scheme is able to eliminate phase errors induced by harmonics and random noise. The validity and utility of the proposed scheme are verified by the experimental results.

In this study, the effect of stiffness ratio between base frame and anchorgae is evaluated and the seismic verification of nuclear power plant equipment anchorage is performed for typical equipment. The stiffness ratio between base frame and anchorage is mainly controlled by the effective height of side wall plate. And, the change of that stiffness ratio cause the large shift or ovreturning axis of equipment base. This shift of overturning axis of equipment base is able to reduce the factor of safety about 10%. Therefore, the adequate method for evaluating of effective height of side wall is required as further study.

Seismic isolation systems can improve the seismic safety of nuclear power plants by decreasing seismic force transmitted to structures and equipment. This study evaluates the effectiveness of equipment seismic isolation systems by the comparison of core damage frequencies in non-isolated and isolated cases. It can be found that the seismic isolation systems increase seismic capacity of nuclear equipment and decrease core damage frequencies significantly. The effect of equipment isolation is more significant in the PGA range of 0.3g to 0.5g.

The three-phase synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop (SRF-PLL) is widely used for synchronization applications in power systems. In this paper, a new control strategy for three-phase grid-connected LCL inverters without a PLL is presented. According to the new strategy, a current reference can be generated by using the instantaneous power control scheme and the proposed positive-sequence voltage detector. Through theoretical analysis, it is indicated that a high-quality grid current can be produced by introducing the new control strategy. In addition, a kind of independent control for reactive power can be achieved under unbalanced and distorted grid conditions. Finally, the excellent performance of the proposed control strategy is validated by means of simulation and experimental results.
