  • This paper deals with the effective protection method for the household electric appliances against lightning surges invading from the Power lines. Direct or induced lightning is the main cause of the breakdown of household electric appliance. The most effective protection method is to install SPDs(surge protective devices) at household electric appliances. If SPDs were not installed at most household electric appliances, it is necessary to install SPDs on the mains. Therefore the propagation aspect and protection methods of lighting surges coming into household electric appliances through the mains was experimentally investigated. The in actual-sized test circuits results of protection method for 8 household electric appliances including computer monitors and TV set could be summarized as follows: The breakdown characteristics of household electric appliances from lightning surges were significantly changed with the their input impedance. Namely, the types of input impedance are classified into infinite, resistive or inductive impedances. Especially, the monitor for computer with inductive input impedance from lightning surges was relatively weak against lightning surges. It was confirmed that the self inductance of branch circuits on the mains have protection effect for household electric appliances against lightning surges invading from the power lines. Also the varistors installed at cabinet panel or circuit-breaker were more effective than multi-tap outlet with varistors. When installed varistors in cabinet panel and multi-tap outlet together, the surge protection effect is much more excellent in technical and economical aspects.

  • The AC power lines and signal lines of info-communication networks are routed on overhead poles and are highly exposed to lightning strikes. Due to the potential difference between grounding points of AC power lines and signal lines, the electronic equipments connected to the signal lines can easily be damaged by lightning surges. In this work, in order to develop reliable methods of protecting information and communication facilities from lightning surges, the reliability and performance of SPDs (surge protective devices) were experimentally investigated in an actual-sized test circuit. The behaviors of SPDs against lightning surges from AC power lines and signal lines and the coordinated effects of SPD installation methods were evaluated. As a consequence, it was confirmed that the bypass arrester methods and common grounding system are both highly effective.

  • 국내의 저압수용가 대부분은 한국전력공사의 TN-C접지방식으로부터 공급받고 있으나 부하설비는 TT 접지방식을 위주로 한 전기설비기술기준에 따라 시설되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 정보기술설비를 뇌서지로부터 보호할 수 있는 적절한 전원계통접지방식을 제안하기 위해서 TT, TN계통의 뇌서지에 대한 보호성능을 연구하였다. 그 결과, 뇌서지가 배전계통의 중성선에 입사한 때 TT계통의 기기접지단자와 전원선의 중성점 사이에 높은 전위차가 발생하였으며, 예민한 컴퓨터설비가 손상될 위험성이 있으므로 TT계통은 적합하지 않다. 뇌서지로부터 저압 설비를 보호하기 위해서는 등전위본딩이 중요한 요건이며, TN계통이 중성선을 통하여 입사하는 뇌서지의 저감에 가장 우수하였으며, 수용가 인입구에서의 추가접지도 바람직한 방법이다.

  • The transient characteristics of grounding systems play a major role in the protection of power equipments, electronic circuits and info-communication facilities against surges which arise from lightning or ground faults. Electronic devices are very weak against lightning surges injected from grounding systems and can be damaged. The malfunction and damage of electronic circuits bring about bad operation performances, a lot of economical losses, and etc. Therefore, in order to obtain the effective protection measure of electronic devices from overvoltages and lightning surges, the analysis of the transient grounding impedances in essential. One of this work is to examine the transient behaviors of grounding impedances under steplike currents for various grounding systems. And the other of this work is to evaluate the transient behaviors of a grid with rods under impulse currents and to investigate the effect of grounding lead wire. Transient grounding impedances of a grid with rods under impulse current waves have been measured as a parameter of the length of the grounding leads. Z-t, Z-i and V-i curves of transient grounding impedance under impulse current waveforms have been measured and analyzed. It was found that the grounding impedance gives the inductive, resistive and capacitive aspects under steplike current. Transient grounding impedance characteristics were very different with shapes, geometries of ground electrodes. Also, they were dependent on the waveform and magnitude of impulse current.

  • 최근 고품질의 정보통신서비스와 안정한 전력공급에 대한 사회적 요구가 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 뇌서지로부터 정보통신설비를 효과적으로 보호하는 대책을 제안하기 위해서 실규모 실험회로를 적용하여 여러 가지 설치조건에 따른 서지보호기의 보호효과를 실험적으로 조사하였다. 그 결과 전원계통의 접지방식, 분기회로의 수, 접지선의 배선방법 등에 따라 서지보호기의 보호효과는 크게 다른 것으로 밝혀졌다. 정보화 기기용 서지보호기를 설치하는 경우, 전원선과 통신선을 포함하는 공통접지방식과 접지선을 전원선과 일괄하여 금속관 내에 배선하는 것이 서지보호기의 서지차단성능의 향상에 가장 효과적이었다.

  • 정보통신망 신호선로는 전원선과 더불어 가공선로로 구성되어 있어 뇌서지에 대한 노출이 심각하다. 전원선로의 접지와 통신선로 접지 상호간에 나타나는 전위차로 인하여 통신선에 접속된 전자장비는 뇌서지에 의해 쉽게 손상될 수도 있다. 본 연구에서는 뇌서지로부터 정보통신설비를 신뢰성 높게 보호하는 기법을 개발할 목적으로 실규모 회로에서 서지보호장치의 성능과 신뢰성에 대한 실증실험을 수행하였다. 전원선과 통신선을 통하여 입사한 뇌서지 에 대한 서지보호장치의 동작특성과 보호장치의 설치방법이 뇌서지 보호효과에 미치는 협조특성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 정보통신설비용 뇌서지 보호장치를 바이패스 어레스터를 이용한 공통접지법으로 설치하는 것이 매우 효과적임을 확인하였다.

  • Surge protective devices(SPDs) are widely used as a most effective means protecting the electrical and electronic equipment against overvoltages such as lightning and switching surges. When installing SPDs, it is essential that the voltage protection level provided by SPDs should be lower than the withstand voltage of the equipment being protected. But even the proper selection of SPDs are achieved, the voltage at the equipment terminal may be higher than the residual voltage of SPD due to the reflection and oscillation phenomena. This paper was focused on the investigations of the conditions for which the equipment is protected by an SPD taking into account the influences of the protective distance and type of load. The protective effects of SPD with voltage-limiting component were analyzed as functions of types of load and protective distance between the SPD and load. As a result, in the cases of long protective distances, capacitive loads and loads with high resistance, the voltage at the load terminal was significantly higher than the residual voltage of SPD. It was found that the proper installation of SPDs should be carried out by taking into account the protective distance and type of load to achieve reliable protection of electronic equipments against surges.
