This paper presents discriminate between magnetizing inrush and internal faults of power transformer by artificial neural networks trained with preprocessing of fault discriminant. The proposed neural networks contain multi-layer perceptron using back-propagation learning algorithm with logistic sigmoid activation function. For this training and test, we used the relaying signals obtained from the EMTP simulation of model power system. It is shown that the proposed transformer protection system by neural networks never misoperated.

Identification of incipient faults and various events on the distribution feeders is very important to develop the prediction method of fault symptom. In this paper, the configuration of data acquisition system to get the real field data is introduced. And the Quantification of incipient faults is also discussed. Based on the acquired field data, how the time domain parameters of voltage and current signals are applied to this research is partly introduced.

Because the overhead transmission lines are exposed to the outdoor weather, the faults of the transmission tines are due to natural conditions, and among these faults, the outage rate by lightning is about 50%. The lightning causes the damage of power system equipments, the shut down of electricity and the electro-magnetic interference. Therefore, the pertinent insulation design is important, not only to decrease the damage of the facility itself but also to increase the reliability of electric power system. For these reasons, we have to obtain and accumulate the lightning current parameters for the basic lightning research. This paper describes the development of real time analysis system about lightning information.

Most of faults occurring in transmission lines are transient faults. For such faults, automatic reclosing is economic and effective method to improve the reliability and transient stability of power system. Many countries apply various reclosing schemes considering issues of their own systems such as transient stability, rate of success. Currently, different reclosing schemes are applied in Korean transmission systems according to a rated voltage. In this paper, we conduct an evaluation of reclosing schemes in Korean transmission systems considering transient stability. Computer simulations are performed by using ElectroMagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) and transmission system is modeled based on actual data of Korea.

In this work, the software behavior under memory faults in operation phase is modeled and simulated using the stochastic activity network, generalized stochastic Petri nets. This networks permit the representation of concurrency, timeliness, fault tolerance, and degradable performance of system and provide a means for determining the stochastic behavior of a complex system. We estimate the reliability of an application software in the digitized system in nuclear power plants and show the sensitivity of the software reliability to the major physical parameters which affect the software failure in normal operation phase. We found that the effects of the hardware faults on the software failure should be considered for predicting the software dependability accurately in operation phase.

This paper introduces a fuzzy expert systems for fault diagnosis, where the causal relationships between faults and protective devices are defined as fuzzy relations. The uncertainties existing in the fault diagnosis are figured out using the possibility theory and the possibility measure is associated with the fuzzy relation to evaluate the possibilities of faults. Besides, the knowledge base in the expert system is described and explained. In this way, multiple-fault can be handled easily and simultaneously together with single faults.

KEPCO has been operating a lightning detection network, KLDNet, to cope with lightning-induced faults. An weather observation for last 40 years shows that heavy rainy days per year and the strength of rain have almost doubled. It could be interpreted as more frequent occurrence of lightning events. In accordance with that, the lightning activities and the mischievous influences, such as transmission faults, have increased. In this paper, the observed data by the network in 2007 is analyzed and compared with ten-years-old-statistics accumulated by the former system, LPATS.

Ungrounded power systems are adopted onboard vessels which enable more stabilized power supply even in case of electric leakage to hull. If earthing faults happen at these systems, they make grounding impedances of power lines unbalanced each other on the three phases, resulting in high voltages to hull which can bring more possibilities of electric shocks and electric fires. This study focuses on how to configure a calculation module for transferring a grounded condition by lowered insulation resistance into a vector diagram of the voltages to hull. By using the module, the loci of neutral points were acquired to analyze how voltages to hull are affected by earthing faults and the distributed capacitances between power lines and hull. The suggested module was simulated and compared to the measured values from a test power system in good results.
