This paper presents the protective relaying scheme as a method for discriminating of power transform's transient state associated with magnetizng inrush state, over-exciting state and internal fault using wavelet based neural networs. The simulation of EMTP with respect to different fault, inrush condition and over-exciting condition in transformer have been conducted, and the result prove that the proposed method is able to discriminate between inrush magnetizing current and internal fault.

The application of Connectionist expert system using neural network to fault diagnosis of power system is presented and compared with rule-based expert system. Also, the merits of Connectionist model using neural network is presented. In this paper, the neural network for fault diagnosis is hierarchically composed by 3 neural network classes. The whole power system is divided into subsystems, the neural networks (Class II) which take charge of each subsystem and the neural network (Class III) which connects subsystems are composed. Every section of power system is classified into one of the typical sections which can be applied with same diagnosis rules, as line-section, bus-section, transformer-section. For each typical section, only one neural network (Class I) is composed. As the proposed model has hierarchical structure, the great reduction of learning structure is achieved. With parallel distributed processing, we show the possibility of on-line fault diagnosis.

These days, SFCLs are being developed in order to limit fault current. However, the superconducting elements that limit the fault current have such problems as capacity increase and require auxiliary devices including cooling device. If devices that comprise the current power network can withstand fault current for at least one cycle, it is possible to limit the fault current with current limiting elements by bypassing it on the fault line. In this study, the fault current limiter was configured with current transformer, vacuum interrupter, and current limiting element. Through the experience, it was confirmed that the fault current was limited within one cycle. The superconducting element, as a current limiting element, limited the fault current by 80 % within one cycle from fault occurrence, and the passive element limited it more than 95 %. Also, through the comparison between resistance curve and power consumption curve, it was confirmed that the current limiting element using a passive element was more stable than the superconducting element that required capacity increase and other auxiliary devices. It was considered that the FCL proposed in this study could limit fault current stably within one cycle from fault occurrence by using the existing power technologies such as fault current detection and solenoid valve operating circuit.

In this paper, we studied the method for simultaneous quenching of a transformer type superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) with two superconducting elements connected in series. Only an element between two elements of the transformer type SFCL was quenched like the case of the resistive type SFCL. By this quenching characteristics, the power burden of the superconducting element was increased. In order to solve this problem, we connected the neutral line between two superconducting elements and the center of secondary coils. The two elements were all quenched in the transformer type SFCL with a neutral line. As a result, the power burden of superconducting elements was decreased, so it was efficient for the increase of power capacity of the transformer type SFCL.

In the station of the railway and the subway various illumination equipment and a general power equipment for a passenger convenience, the signal equipment and the communication equipment which is necessary to the train operation provided. At the all of like this equipment from the electric room which is established in each station by changing from high voltage to low voltage and it supplies from the illumination transformer, the power transformer and the signal transformer. If it supplies to the equipment from the high voltage to the low voltage, it must be established to contact protection device in between the high voltage coil and the low voltage coil. Also it must do the grounding faulting device at the low voltage lines, the earthing devices at apparatus for the protection of an electric shock and an electric fire by the electric relation law. Compared the related regulations between the facilities which require protective functions such as grounding fault or earthing in public utilities like subway stations, and the facilities which do not require line earthing or protective functions such as electricity supplied for signalling the train. Also, will describe a countermeasure for the accident from a grounding fault.

The two criteria to identify the disturbances of the power transformer has been reported in this paper. They have been derived through EMTP simulations of internal faults, inrush and overexcitation for the model of 154/22.9[kV], 40[MVA], Y-Y three-phase power transformer. We propose the crisp algorithm which uses two criteria. A series of test results clearly indicate that the method can identify not only an internal fault but also the other transients. The average of relay operation times is about 7.2[ms]. The proposed algorithm immunes to the transient state.

In power system, substation facilities have become too complex and larger according to an extended power system. Also, customers require the high quality of electrical power system. However, some facilities become old and often break down unexpectedly. The unexpected failure may cause a break in power system and loss of profits. Therefore it is important to prevent abrupt faults by monitoring the condition of power systems. Among the various power facilities, power transformers play an important role in the transmission and distribution systems. In this research, we develop intelligent diagnosis technique for predicting faults of power transformer by FCM(Fuzzy c-means) and Euclidean based distance measure. The proposed technique make it possible to measures the possibility and degree of aging as well as the faults occurred in transformer. To demonstrate the validity of proposed method, various experiments are performed and their results are presented.

In case of operating two converters in parallel with ZCT operation method using one current sensor for fault tolerance by system characteristics, identifying fault detection and isolation is difficult of which converter is fault since the ZCT output is a difference of two converters' supply current when a converter has fault. This thesis suggest a fault detection and isolation method of converter in case of operating two converters in parallel for fault tolerant system and verified this suggested method through an experiment.

The research for detecting of insulating deterioration in transformer has been studied from long ago. Analysis method of combustible gas, which is included in insulating oil, has been widely used in detection of transformer pre-fault detection due to the effectiveness of its method. Recently the fault effect of the large transformer is very critical in a power system, therefore the on-line monitoring and diagnostic system is needed. In addition, the more accurate method of detecting a Partial Discharge (PD) location should be developed. For preventive maintenance against discharge failures, it is important not only to detect the discharges, but also to accurately estimate their positions. However ...

This paper presents the novel fault diagnostic expert system based on dissolved gas analysis(DGA) techniques in power transformer. The uncertainty of key gas analysis, norm threshold, and gas ratio boundaries are managed by using a fuzzy set concept. The uncertainty of rules are handled by fuzzy measures. Trend analysis through the monthly increment of key gas and DGA analysis are combined by the Dempster-Shafer theory, and the state of transformer and confidence factor are yielded by using this combined analysis. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed diagnosis technique, the expert system has been tested by using KEPCO's transformer gas records.
