  • The valve device is installed in hazardous areas, such as a chemical plant explosion has been sealed with fire protection device to prevent the risk of explosion. In this paper, due to the explosion-proof devices using external power the device can not be used in infrared sensors and Zigbee sensor valve device by measuring the open degree of valve opening and closing of the danger zone to check whether. Valve opening and closing operation log screen time, we propose a low-power operation monitoring system administrators to manage and control the plant. Develop power control relay board apply an improved algorithm to apply the asynchronous LPL power management.

  • In this paper, we propose a design for an efficient hybrid LED street lighting management system using standalone solar photovoltaic. The proposed efficient hybrid LED street lighting management system was composed of hybrid power conditioning system, gateways, LED street lights and a monitoring server. The hybrid power conditioning system was designed to charge produced power by solar photovoltaic panels in day time, and supply power to the LED street lights in night time. If there is insufficient power, the system was designed to operate using firm power, because the system utilizes photovoltaic power. A system control algorithm allied to the lighting management system, and experimented by being configured to the functions that are able to perform real-time monitoring and remote control through the lighting management system even when absent. In the result of the efficiency analysis of the hybrid lighting management system proposed in this paper, we were able to increase the energy efficiency compared to existing lighting control systems by reducing power consumption and electricity costs.

  • 14 Pressurized Water Reactors (PWR) in Korea use a remote monitoring system (RMS), which have been used in Korea since 1998. A Memorandum of Understanding on Remote Monitoring, based on Enhanced Cooperation on PWRs, was signed at the 10th Safeguards Review Meeting in October 2001 between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Ministry Of Science and Technology (MOST). Thereafter, all PWR power plants applied for remote monitoring systems. However, the existing method is high cost (involving expensive telephone costs). So, it was eventually applied to an Internet system for Remote Monitoring. According to the Internet-based Virtual Private Network (VPN) applied to Remote Monitoring, the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) came to an agreement with the IAEA, using a Member State Support Program (MSSP). Phase I is a Lab test. Phase II is to apply it to a target power plant. Phase III is to apply it to all the power plants. This paper reports on the penetration testing of Phase I. Phase I involved both domestic testing and international testing. The target of the testing consisted of a Surveillance Digital Integrated System (SDIS) Server, IAEA Server and TCNC (Technology Center for Nuclear Control) Server. In each system, Virtual Private Network (VPN) system hardware was installed. The penetration of the three systems and the three VPNs was tested. The domestic test involved two hacking scenarios: hacking from the outside and hacking from the inside. The international test involved one scenario from the outside. The results of tests demonstrated that the VPN hardware provided a good defense against hacking. We verified that there was no invasion of the system (SDIS Server and VPN; TCNC Server and VPN; and IAEA Server and VPN) via penetration testing.

  • It is necessary for the stabilized operation of the power system even if a severe condition in system operation takes place. There is the need to develop the intelligent Power grid Monitoring System. In this system, the PMU(Phasor Measurement Unit) measures the synchrophasor and transmits it to the PIDS(Power Infrastructure Defense System). The IEEE PC37.118 protocol defines the message format to implement the communication both the PMU and the PIDS. In this paper, We measure and analyze the network traffic from simulated the PMU to simulated the PIDS according to network routing. And, We present the finest network routing in developing the intelligent Power grid Monitoring System.

  • This article describes the useful way to measure the torque and RPM of the geared motor. For this we have made the planetary geared reduction motor including 2 Hall sensors in it and the monitoring system. The monitoring system displays the sensing values (torque, rpm) and the calculated value (power) and it also has the network capability using the Bluetooth protocol. We will show that our solution is much more inexpensive and simple method to measure torque and rpm than before.

  • In this paper, we present an active anti-islanding method with a load monitoring system using reactive power control. The proposed method, which is based on reactive power control, has fewer harmonics components than those in conventional methods, and it can minimize the reactive power component of the grid because it compensates the reactive power component with the load monitoring. The proposed quick islanding detection method was confirmed from the experimental results with an inverter for a 3kW photovoltaic system.

  • Renewable energy and smart grid become the focus of attention of industry. The smart grid is an intelligent system which maximizes the efficiency of energy and it needs to monitor the amount of power generation and power consumption continuously. Remote Monitoring System(RMS) is very useful for monitoring the power generation and consumption, but mostly they are implemented on the wire communication. In this paper, we propose a wireless sensor network based remote power monitoring system. And as an application, a new anti-islanding method with the proposed RMS is presented. An experimental micro grid system is implemented to verify the proposed RMS and anti-islanding method.

  • The necessity of Power Quality(PQ) Management grow bigger because the disturbance strength in power system is increasing, on the other hand, the tolerance of electrical components is reducing with widely use of the IT and digital equipments. The domestic management standards on power quality are enacted based on the IEC standards in recent. Since the IEC standards defines the measurement and evaluation point on PQ as PCC(Point of Common Coupling) which is normally the point of penetration between customer and power company, the PQ monitoring system(PQMS) should be made to measure and manage the PQ of custom effectively. In this paper, therefore, the economical construction plan on PQMS using the wireless communication channel in distribution automation system is suggested, and the usefulness of the PQMS are shown by analyzing the PQM data with IEC standards.
