In this study, Experimental analysis on submarine cable tension was performed for the safe and efficient laying and recovery of a submarine cable. The tension analysis was done through the analyzed data using the cable dynamic theory and the measured data using the experiment. The analyzed cable tension was able to decide requirements for the purpose of laying and recovery of the submarine cable. As the result of tension analysis for a Submarine cable, it was shown a proper feasibility to determine the laying and recovery conditions of the submarine cable.

The distribution submarine cables are normally used for power supply at island, which are mostly installed in the southern coast of KOREA, and partially installed in the west coast and Jeju-Island. There are two way of submarine cable burying system, buried and unburied type. Since 2003, KEPCO is entirely being constructing the distribution submarine cable by buried type. In this case, 'burial depth' is key index for evaluating the suitability of the buried situation. Therefore, the measurement accuracy of 'burial depth' is a big issue for burying system in the distribution submarine cable. This paper demonstrates the measurement error of burial depth that is affected by electrical factor such as grounding type of submarine cable in case of magnetic field detection method, and indicates the method to reduce the measurement error in buried type of distribution submarine cable system.

Submarine cable is the leading means of international communication across oceans. However, when such important submarine cable is damaged, that causes not only huge amount for the repair but also losing the nation's reliability internationally, and has brought about much difficulty and loss due to the interruption of communication. So, in order to deduce methods for the stability of submarine cables, this paper is studying the present status of submarine cables and the causes of cable faults, and suggesting techniques and regulations to protect from the trouble of submarine cables.

This paper describes the EMTP/ATP Draw modeling HVDC submarine cable. HVDC submarine cables consist of conductor, lead sheath and amore. It is different from general cable which is composed with just conductor and aluminium sheath. Therefore, the transient characteristics are totally different between HVDC submarin cable and general cable. However, the study on HVDC cable modeling and Transient are insufficient. In this paper, characteristic and effectiveness of HVDC Submarine Cable through Transient analysis. Therefore it is evaluated that the application of HVDC Submarine cable at the field should be considered cautiously when more detailed transient analysis, another electrical testes and economic evaluations are implemented.

The biggest cause of submarine cable fault is fishing activity such as 70% by anchor of fishing boats and occurs within 200m the depth of water. It needs a regulation for protection of submarine cable from the fishing boats and construction of cable at shore-end. This paper is studying a plan and regulation to install the construction among the subsee users, and the burial technique of submarine cable at shore-end suggests to manage from company to government.

In this paper, slack is computed from a comparison of the cable pay out rate and the ship ground speed in accordance with laying conditions, and the speed controller of the cable engine based on an H(sub)$\infty$ servo control id designed for adjusting the cable engine in order to lay a desired amount of slack. The controller is designed for robust tracking of the cable engine under disturbances. The performance of the designed controller is evaluated by computer simulation, and, consequently, a feasibility study for laying the submarine cable stably is done through analyzing simulation results.

In this study attempted to evaluate the stability of the protection methods by examining hydraulic characteristics of the area around the point in which marine cable protector is installed such as surf zone occurrence point of shore-end submarine cables suitable for coastal marine environmental conditions, flow rate t the tope of the protector and maximum wave height, and to provide basic data for the selection of the optimal protection method. In performing hydraulic model experiments, the topography of submarine cable installation location was reproduced in 2-D sectional channel, and models appropriate for experimental scale and similitude law were produced and installed for each condition of submarine cables and protectors. Since the topography and submarine cable protectors were reproduced and installed in 2-D sectional channel, the exact reproduction of surf and transformation in shallow water zone was possible, and thus the physical properties could be clearly analyzed. For stability review, an experiment to examine the stability was conducted using a wave maker with 50-year frequency design waves as target, and wave height and cycles were applied based on the approximate lowest low water level(Approx. L.L.W), which is the most dangerous in submarine cable protection methods. As for experimental time, typhoon passing time in summer (about 3 hours) was applied, and wave patterns and deviation ratio of the submarine cable protector were investigated after making irregular waves corresponding to design waves. In addition, current meter and wave height meter were installed at the installation location of the submarine cable protector, and the flow rates and wave height at the top of the protector were measured and analyzed to review hydraulic properties.

Demand and necessity for eco-friendly offshore wind farms have been increasing. Research on submarine cables is constantly being considered for a reliable and stable power transmission. This study aimed to evaluate the thermal aging characteristic of submarine cables inside the J-tube of offshore wind farms. In this study, a submarine cable was set in three sections: The first is the part exposed to the air above the sea level at high temperature. The second is the section exposed to repeated temperature fluctuation as the sea level rises and falls. The third is the part submerged at low temperature below the sea level. Aged samples were tested by using the method of electrical evaluation to obtain insulation characteristics. The experimental results show that the dielectric breakdown of the sample with temperature fluctuation was 7% lower than the sample with a constant temperature; thereby, demonstrating that the section where the temperature fluctuation occurred in the submarine cables was weaker than the other. The sections of submarine cable with temperature fluctuations are believed as a weak point during operation; therefore, this part should be monitored preferentially.

This paper describes the mechanical and electrical test on HVDC submarine cable, Flexible Repair Joint and termination for 180kV. This HVDC submarine cable was manufactured using LS cable's unique skill and would be applied the HVDC submarine cable system in korea. The performance test consist of mechanical test and electrical test. The tensile bending test and tensile test was done as the mechanical test and Electrical test is DC voltage and Impulse test. The tensile bending test carried out 6 times(double of specified times) for maximum reliability. The DC test voltage is $\pm$400kV/1hr. We estimate the lower limit of DC breakdown voltage is 600kV. The impulse test voltage is $\pm$800kV/10shots. The type of developed cables is the MI type. Its insulation consist of paper tapes impregnated with a high viscosity oil. The development of new HVDC cable is available for HVDC underground or submarine power transmission. The developed HVDC cable, FRJ and termination have passed the mechanical and electrical test successfully and showed excellent performance.
