The superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) can quickly limit the fault current shortly after the short circuit occurs and recover the superconducting state after the fault removes and plays a role in compensating the voltage sag of the sound feeder adjacent to the fault feeder as well as the fault current limiting operation of the fault feeder. Especially, the flux-lock type SFCL with an isolated transformer, which consists of two parallel connected coils on an iron core and the isolated transformer connected in series with one of two coils, has different voltage sag compensating and current limiting characteristics due to the winding direction and the inductance ratio of two coils. The current limiting and the voltage sag compensating characteristics of a SFCL using a transformer winding were analyzed. Through the analysis on the short-circuit tests results considering the winding direction of two coils, the SFCL designed with the additive polarity winding has shown the higher limited fault current than the SFCL designed with the subtractive polarity winding. It could be confirmed that the higher fault current limitation of the SFCL could be contributed to the higher load voltage sag compensation.

본 논문에서는 저비용 제작이 가능한 직렬 공진형 한류기를 스마트 그리드 배전 계통에 적용하기 위한 방법을 연구하였다. 먼저, 한류기의 직렬 공진 회로에 주입되는 단락 전류의 고조파 성분들이 과도 응답의 피크 값에 미치는 영향에 대해서 분석하였으며, 퍼센트 임피던스 기반 고장 전류 계산법을 적용하여 정상 상태 응답을 결정하는 방법을 연구하였다. 다음, 시험 배전 선로에 적용하여 채택된 방법의 유효성을 검증하였다. 설계된 한류기를 적용한 시험 배전계통을 EMTP_RV를 이용하여 모델링하였으며 3상 단락 고장 시나리오를 모의하였다. 고장 모의 결과에서 한류기 적용 후 고장 전류의 정상 상태 응답이 설계 목표 값을 정확하게 추종하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 한류기 적용 전과 후의 고장전류 파형 비교에서 고장 전류가 크게 억제되는 것을 확인함으로써 배전 계통에 대한 직렬 공진형 한류기 적용 효과를 확인할 수 있었다.

Nowadays, one of the serious problems in KEPCO(Korea Electric Power Co-Operation) system is the more higher fault current than the SCC(Short Circuit Capacity) of circuit breaker. There are many alternatives to reduce the increased fault current such as isolations of bus ties, enhancement of SCC of circuit breaker, applications of HVDC-BTB(High Voltage Direct Current-Back to Back) and FCL(fault current limiter). But, these alternatives have some drawbacks in viewpoints of system stability and cost. As the superconductivity technology has been developed, the HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductor -Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. Under this background, this paper presents the EMTDC(Electro-Magnetic Transient Direct Current) model for resistance type HTS-FCL considering the nonlinear characteristic of final resistance value when quenching phenomena occur.

The major causes of electrical fire in low-voltage distribution lines are classified into short-circuit fault, overload fault, electric leakage, and electric contact failure. The special principal factor of the fire is electric arc or spark accompanied with such electric faults. This paper studies the development of an electric fire prevention system with detection and alarm of that in case of parallel arc fault occurrence in low-voltage distribution lines. The proposed system is designed on algorithm sensing the instantaneous voltage drop of line voltage at arc fault occurrence. The proposed detector has characteristics of high-speed operation responsibility and superior system reliability from composition using a large number of semiconductor devices. A new sensing control method that shows the detection of parallel arc fault is sensed to ripple voltage drop through a diode bridge full-wave rectifier at electrical accident occurrence. Some experimental tests of the proposed system also confirm the practicality and validity of the analytical results.

With increasing demand of power, the equipment of power system is enlarging and the absolute capacity is going up. As a result, when a fault occurs, the fault current is consistently increasing. Therefore, I suggested some solution for limiting the fault current more efficiently. This study shows the characteristics of superconducting limiting elements and normal conducting elements combined with a transformer. We performed a short-circuit test about the fault current by using SCR switching control system operated from a CT. When short circuit accidents happened in the secondary side of a transformer, fault currents flowed and a SCR switching control system was operated. It resulted in a decrease of the fault current in the limited elements of third winding connected in parallel. For this test, we used YBCO thin films and normal conducting elements as the limited elements. Within a cycle, a superconducting fault current limiter with YBCO thin films reduced more than 90% of fault current because the resistance of superconducting elements sustainedly grew. On the other hand, the limiter with normal conductors limited as much as a set value because its resistance characteristic was linear. Consequently, in case of the limiter with superconductor, limiting range of the circuit was wide but the range of protective detection was undefined. In contrast, as for the limiter with normal conductors, limiting range and protection duty were appropriate.

Nowadays, one of the serious problems in KEPCO system is much higher fault current than the SCC(Short Circuit Capacity) of circuit breaker. As the superconductivity technology has developed, the HTS-FCL(High Temperature Superconductor-Fault Current Limiter) can be one of the attractive alternatives to solve the fault current problem. But the parameters of HTS-FCL should be designed optimally to have the best performance. Under this background, this paper presents the optimal design method of parameters for resistive type HTS-FCL using Monte Carlo technique.
