This paper presents numerical analysis of measurement errors of ground electrode using the fall-of-potential method. In order to analyze ground resistance error according to the positions of auxiliary probes, firstly, national and international standards were researched. Secondly, numerical ground resistance error of hemispheric electrode was analyzed according to the locations of auxiliary probes and the angle between probes. Then, error-reduced positions of auxiliary probes were shown according to the distance to auxiliary current probe versus ground electrode size. Finally, error compensation method was presented. The results presented in this paper provide useful information regarding ground resistance error of alternative positions of auxiliary probes in case that the auxiliary probes could not be located at the proper position in such cases as there are buildings, roadblock or underground metallic pipe at that position.

Both ratio error and phase angle error in voltage transformer(VT) depend on values of burden of VT used. A method of evaluation for linearity of ratio error and phase angle error in VT measurement equipment have been developed using the standard resistance burdens, with negligible AC-DC resistance difference less than $10^-6$. These burden consists of five standard resistors, with nominal resistance of 100 $\Omega$, 1 k$\Omega$, 10 k$\Omega$, 100 k$\Omega$, and 1 M$\Omega$. The developed method has been applied in VT measurement equipment of industry and the validity of the developed method has been verified by showing the consistency of the result of linearity obtained using VT with wide ratio error.

This paper analyzes the effect of resistance error to the performance of sensorless drive system of surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine (SMPMSM) based on the back-EMF observer. The analysis shows that the bandwidth of the entire sensorless drive system decreased in the low-speed region when using smaller resistance value than the actual one in the back-EMF observer. Even if the back-EMF observer invokes estimation error, the entire sensorless drive system does not make any steady-state position error. These characteristics may have positive effects such as extension of the low speed limit that goes further down in the sensorless drive. The validity of the analysis is verified by the experimental setup comprising the MG set.

This paper deals with the improvement of electrode installation for measurement of ground resistance through investigation on the spot in buildings. The investigation was carried out for an earthing terminal board for measurement of ground resistance, installation of auxiliary electrode, etc. The criteria value is set up by measuring method of ground resistance in international standard. In case of inadequate installation of auxiliary electrode, a relative error is analyzed and adequate installation method of auxiliary electrode is proposed. As a consequence, it is necessary to write direction of ground and equipment, and separate auxiliary electrode for measurement of ground resistance in order to minimize measuring error.

RVDT is a transducer that presents rotary phase angle according to the displacement of eccentric rotor such as press machine. However a study on the phase error of RVDT that affects precision is not enough. This paper analyzes RVDT phase error and obtains compensation curves with serial or parallel resistance through simulation. First, error compensation procedure that analyses errors due to the unbalance of reference inductances of each pole and uses parallel resistance as a compensation is proposed. Second, error compensation procedure due to the amplitude unbalance of the sensor driving currents is examined by serial compensation resistance. Experimentally, we got stable RVDT with phase error under $1^{\circ}$ by the proposed method.

These days more electric devices are implemented in car, and more accurate estimation of SoC is required. OCV with current integration and Internal Resistance is essential method of Battery SoC Estimation. In this paper we propose OCV with current integration method and compare with Internal Resistance method. In OCV with current integration method estimation error was less than average 2%, but requires more than 5 minutes to stabilize OCV. If Stop and Running conditions are change frequently, estimation error will increase. In Internal resistance Modeling method, in high SoC state, estimation error was more than 15%, and in low SoC state, estimation error was less than 8%.

Ground impedance for the large grounding system is measured according to the IEEE Standard 81.2 which is based on the revised fall-of-potential method of installing auxiliary electrode at a right angle. When the auxiliary electrodes are located at an angle of $90^{\circ}$, the ground impedance inevitably includes the error due to earth mutual resistance. In this paper, in order to accurately measure the ground impedance of vertically-driven ground electrodes, error rates due to earth mutual resistance are evaluated by ground resistance and ground impedance measuring devices and compared with calculated values. As a result, the measured results are in good agreement with the computed results considering soil layer with different resistivity. The error rates due to earth mutual resistance decrease with increasing the length of ground electrode in the case that the ratio of the distance between the ground rod to be measured and the auxiliary electrodes to the length of ground electrode(D/L) is same. The ground impedance should be measured at the minimum distance between the auxiliary electrodes that will have an estimated measurement accuracy due to earth mutual resistance.

Since parameter mismatch seriously impacts the efficiency and stability of induction motor drives, it is important to accurately estimate the rotor and stator resistance. This paper introduces a method to directly calculate the rotor flux that is independent of stator and rotor resistance and electrical angle. It is based on obtaining the rotor and stator resistance using the model reference adaptive system (MRAS) method. The method has a lower computation burden and less adaptation time when compared with other rotor resistance estimation methods. This paper builds three coordinate frames to analyze the rotor flux error and rotor resistance error. A number of implementation issues are also considered.

In this paper, the effects of the position and the angle of the potential probes on the measurements of the ground resistance with the fall-of-potential method are described and the testing techniques to minimize the measuring errors are proposed. The fall-of-potential method is theoretically based on the potential and current measuring principle and the measuring error is primarily caused by the position and angle of auxiliary probes. In order to analyze the relative error for measuring value of ground resistance due to the position of the potential probe, ground resistance were measured in case that the distance of current probe was fixed at 50[m] and the distance of potential probe was located from l0[m] to 50[m]. Also, the potential probe was located at 30[$^{\circ}$], 45[$^{\circ}$], 60[$^{\circ}$], 90[$^{\circ}$] and 180[$^{\circ}$]. As a consequence, relative error decreased with increasing the distance of potential probe and decreasing the angle between current probe and potential probe. The results could be help to determine the position of potential probe when the ground resistance was measured at grounding system.

Local heating transportation pipe has sensor and return lines to detect water-leakage. There are impulse and resistance comparison measurement types for a water-leakage detection. The impulse type shows large detection error within a measurement range. Since the resistance comparison type can find a comparative accurate single water-leakage point in the measurement range of heating pipe, it has been used to detect water-leakages these days. However if the multi water-leakages are happened in the measurement range of transportation pipe. the resistance comparison type shows a detection error point by the parallel resistance between a detection sensor line and ground. But the detection error will be minimized by the divided transportation pipe loops. In this research, it suggests the design of remote controlled detection system which can divide a large pipe loop and a possible single water-leakage measurement process in each divided loops.
