This study provides review and improvement plans for the possible problems caused when the CV cable is used as a positive feeder line which supplies power from the DC HSCB (high-speed circuit breaker) to the catenariesin Seoul Metro which is using direct-current feeder method. In detail, this study contributes to stabilizing the power line by triggering a protective device by instantly detecting potential rise which happens when grounding fault occurs in non-grounding type CV cable shield.

Three phase heaters in 7 buildings of 2 sites were examined for precise diagnosis. The sample size was 626. Precise examinations of current and the heater wiring status revealed contact failures and arcs in equipments that had CUF larger than 10%. Contact failures and arcs may cause electrical fire. Therefore, the correlation between the CUF and the imperfections in heater equipment and its wiring was analyzed for three phase heaters. In addition, the protection devices used for detection of heater imperfections were found to be unsuitable for the purpose. Current status of the protection devices was analyzed, and suggestions for improvements were made for new standards of the protection device selection.

In this paper, we analyzed form of flowing leakage current in electrical installation. Leakage current ($I_g$) is consisted of resistive leakage current($I_{gr}$), capacitive leakage current($I_{gc}$), and inductive leakage current($I_{gl}$). Resistive leakage current($I_{gr}$) is big occasion than capacitive leakage current($I_{gc}$) in system, Residual Current Protective Device(RCD) detects correctly leakage current. But,$I_{gc}$ is big occasion than $I_{gr}$, RCD is malfunctioned It is resistance to lead to electric fire in electrical device. We manufactured outlet that resistive leakage current detecting circuit is had. Manufactured outlet displayed performance exactly in leakage current of 5 mA Therefore, this product estimates that contribute on electric fire courtesy call.

Lately, the Intelligent Electronic Device(ED) and the Power System Automation make subjects of discussions and studies. The IED uses microprocessors to practice a lot of functions. In the analog time, an equipment practices only one or two functions. But according to the development of microprocessor and digital technology, it can be implemented by using those kinds of state of the art technology and its function is become more and more powerful. Also, the proliferation of IED makes possible to construct power system automation. An automation of power system make more convenient, safe, and accurate power system. In this paper, a digital protective relay which is a kind of IED and the power automation system are briefly discussed with development and application cases.

A mouthguard is a protective device normally worn on the upper jaw, to reduce injures to the teeth, jaws and surrounding soft tissues. It has a definite role in preventing injuries to the teeth and face and for this reason it is strongly recommended for all sporting activities where there is a risk of trauma to the teeth and associated structures. Mouthguards can be effective in reducing impact force to the teeth, and attributed to enhancement of postural control and muscle performance during teeth clenching. Although there is evidence that mouthguards reducing impact force to the teeth, and prevent orofacial trauma occurrence during sport practice, the influence of this device on athletic performance has not been systematically quantified. Nevertheless, wearing a dentally fitted laminated mouthguard of at least 3 mm thickness can be strongly recommended during sport practice.

Grounding fault and short of the DC power supply systems are detected and protected by high-speed circuit breaker, linked breaking device, ground relay and fault selective device, all of which are installed and operated in substaions. however, there have been many cases in which the protective devices did not detect grounding of of the over head catenary systems on concrete support for an extended period of time. Such cases often cause severe damages to the supports with high grounding resistances. If grounding accidents occur repetitively, the earth current and the rise of earth potential can damage not only passenger and staff but also electric facilities and equipment, necessitating high cost and endeavor to restore. The following study points out various problems that can be occurred occur as a result of high impedance grounding accident, and proposes a new system which can protect and intercept them.

Surge protective devices can be divided into three categories based on the circuit assembly: a parallel circuit type that considers the surge current amount within the device, a series circuit type that considers the voltage and single circuit type that uses a single element. However, when assembling SPDs, there are many things including function and safety to be taken into consideration because they are directly related to the performance and safety of the device. In this paper, we executed an experimental comparative study of performance and thermal stability of each SPD type using lightning surge generator and thermal image camera.

According to 2013 fire statistical yearbook in the National Emergency Management Agency, the main cause of an electrical fire are classified to short circuit fault, overload fault, electric leakage, partial disconnection, and joint/contact badness. The occurrence factor of fire is electric arc or spark accompanied with electrical faults. Residual Current Protective Devices(RCDs) of high sensitivity type used at single phase (220V) cut off earth leakage and overload but the RCDs can not cut off electric arc or spark to be a main cause of electrical fire. To be improved on such problem, this thesis is proposed to a auxiliary control device for RCD cut off electric arc or spark.

IEC 60364에서 규정하는 접지방식 중 IT접지시스템은 접지극에서의 전식문제가 없으므로 DC배전계통에 가장 적합한 것으로 전망되고 있다. 그러나 IT접지시스템의 장점을 확보하기 위해서는 운전 중인 전력선의 절연상태를 지속적으로 감시할 필요가 있으며, IEC61557은 IT접지환경에서 전력선의 절연상태를 감시하는 활선절연저항감시장치(Insulation Monitoring Device; IMD)를 설치할 것을 규정하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 활선상태인 전력선의 절연 저항을 모니터링 함으로써 IT 접지시스템의 안정성을 증진시킬 수 있는 활선절연저항감시장치를 개발하고 성능을 검증한다.

We proposed a current Interruption type DC superconducting circuit breaker(I-DC SCB), a protection device that combines the current limiting technology of a superconductor with the cut-off technology of circuit breaker. Unlike existing protective devices, the current I-DC SCB is a device that combines two protection functions, notably improving failure probability and operational reliability. It is also applicable to all DC systems, such as HV, MV, and LVDC, due to the ease in capacity increase. The 100 kV I-DC SCB was designed after taking into account the actual power system conditions, followed by an analysis of the transient characteristics and the breaking range of the limiter. The results of the analysis showed that the I-DC SCB had a fault current limit of about 75% at the rated voltage, and completed the cut-off operation within about 20 ms.
