This paper present the characteristics of the internal induced voltage and arc phenomena in liquid helium at the energy transfer from a superconducting magnet to a load resistor. Especially generation mechanism of the oscillated wave from of the coil terminal voltage is analyzed by considering circuit constant of the superconducting magnet, load condition and arc resistance of the mechanical opening switch. The wavefront and peak portion of the voltage are strongly influenced by arc discharge triggered by the switch separation in liquid helium. Abrupt arc extinction leads to voltage oscillation with an enormous peak. It is suggested that the superconducting magnet should be designed to ensure the internal surge when arc is possibly formed by switch opening or coil short circuit between turns or layers. Finally, a suppression method of the oscillating surge is proposed based on the load condition.

The surge characteristics of ZnO varistors consisting of $ZnO-{Pr}_6{O}_11-CoO-{Cr}_2{O}_3-{Er}_2{O}_3$ceramics were investigated at various sintering temperatures. As sintering temperature raises, the varistor voltage was decreased from 341.2 to 223.1 V/mm, the nonlinear exponent was decreased from 64,9 to 44.1. On the other hand, the leakage current exhibited a minimum(0.64 $\mu$A) at 134$0^{\circ}C$, The clamping capability was slightly deteriorated with increasing sintering temperature. On the whole, the ZPCCE-based ZnO varistors exhibited good clamping voltage characteristics as exhibiting the clamping voltage ratio of 1.85 ∼ 1.92 approximately at surge current of 100 A.

This paper deals with the electrical characteristics related to power loss, equivalent resistance, and leakage currents flowing through new and deteriorated zinc oxide(ZnO) arrester elements subjected to the mixed DC and 60[Hz] AC voltages. The test specimens were deteriorated by 8/20[${\mu}s$] impulse current of 2.5[kA]. The leakage current-applied voltage($I-V$) characteristic curves of ZnO surge arrester elements were measured as a parameter of the ratio of the peak of 60[Hz] AC voltage to the peak of total voltage. As a consequence of test results, in case of the same applied voltage, the leakage currents flowing through the deteriorated ZnO arrester elements were higher than those flowing through the new ZnO surge arrester elements. The cross-over phenomenon in $I-V$ curves of ZnO surge arrester elements measured as a parameter of the mixed ratio of DC and AC voltages was observed at the low current domain. The effect of DC voltage on the leakage current flowing through ZnO surge arrester elements is pronounced at the same magnitude of test voltages. In addition, the larger the applied number of 8/20[${\mu}s$] impulse current of 2.5[kA] is, the greater the power loss is, in particular, the more severe the power loss increases at higher applied voltages.

이 논문은 직류+60[Hz] 교류 중첩전압에서 신품과 노후된 18[kV] 산화아연 서지피뢰기의 누설전류와 전력손실에 대하여 기술하였다. 최대 50[kV]의 직류+60[Hz] 교류를 발생시킬 수 있는 중첩전압발생장치가 설계되고 제작되었다. 피뢰기의 I-V 특성곡선은 전압중첩률 K의 함수로 측정된다. DC와 AC 전압이 중첩된 I-V, R-V 특성곡선은 순수한 직류와 교류곡선 사이에 있고 저전류 영역에서 교차현상이 나타난다. 그 결과 중첩 전압에서 직류 성분의 증가는 ZnO 피뢰기의 전체 누설전류의 저항성분의 증가를 유발한다. 또한 같은 인가전압에서 피뢰기를 통해 흐르는 누설전류는 상용전원에서 장시간 스트레스 받은 피뢰기가 신품 피뢰기에 비해서 높게 나타났다.

This paper describes the results of a study on the sealing integrity of polymer housed surge arrester based on the thermal mechanical test. The polymer housed surge arrester employs silicone insulating materials for its housing, instead of the conventional porcelain housing. The polymer housed surge arresters exhibited the highest sealing integrity because it is not air volume between the FRP(fiber reinforced plastics) module and the silicone housing. In accordance, the sealing integrity of station class surge arresters is investigated with moisture ingress test. And, the influence of sealing integrity was evaluated through such as measurement of the deflection, reference voltage, leakage current. In electrical characteristics, reference voltage decreased in the range of $16.45{\sim}16.15\;kV$ with after thermal mechanical test. In contrary, despite the continued moisture ingress, the polymer housed surge arresters exhibited almost the same leakage current value and the resistive leakage current has risen slightly. As a results, It was thought that the polymer housed surge arresters shows good stability with sealing integrity.

Modern electronic circuits are becoming more vulnerable to damage by surges, and it is required to improve the impulse withstand voltage performance of electrical and electronic equipment. This paper presents the impulse withstand voltage performance of lighting equipment connected to power lines, and the impulse withstand voltage tests for fluorescent lamp, LED lamp and halogen lamp were carried out according to the reference standards under normal service conditions. To conduct performance tests against lightning surge, a combination wave ($1.2/50{\mu}s$ voltage - $8/20{\mu}s$ current) was employed. The test surge was applied between lines or between line and ground of the specimen to be measured. The test surge was applied synchronized at the peak value of the positive and negative AC voltage waves. As a consequence, some specimens satisfied the impulse withstand voltage test criteria, but lighting equipment such as 36W fluorescent lamps, 5W and 5.5W LED lamps and 50W halogen lamp were damaged at the test voltage levels between power lines. It is needed to improve the qualities of lighting equipment to satisfy EMC immunity requirements of equipment for general lighting purposes.

Recently, the unipolar gate power source is preferred in inverter system because of cost reduction reason. In this case, designer uses 0V source for turning-off the switching devices instead of negative voltage at Vee source. If the gate driver circuit has some stray inductance, the gate voltage would happen a surge voltage. This paper analyzes that of stray inductance effect during the switching behavior in the circuit and the proposed solutions were verified by pulse test.

Low-Voltage power lines should equip surge protection devices which protect electronic equipments and human lives against lightning and abnormal voltages. Data transmission capacity of the power line is determined by frequency characteristics of the surge protective devices. To analyze the effects of surge protective devices on the data transmission performance, various combinations of installation methods are tested which include ZnO varistor elements that is compatible with class I, class II and class III. The result claims that ZnO varistor for class III is found to be one of the main factors that deteriorates the transmission performance. To overcome this problem a serial connection methed between Gap type SPD and ZnO varistor is proposed. With the proposed scheme, laboratory experimental results show that the data transmission performance can be improved up to 91.9[%] with proper SPD combination.

The electrical stability against surge stress of ZPCCY-based varistors were investigated at different sintering times. Sintering time decreased the varistor voltage and nonlinear exponent from 279.6 to 179.1 and from 52.5 to 24.9, respectively. On the contrary, the leakage current and dielectric dissipation factor increased from 1.2 to 9.8 ${\mu}A$ and from 0.0461 to 0.0651 with increase of sintering time. For all varistors, the variation rates of V-I characteristic parameters against surge stress were affected in order of varistor voltage$\rightarrow$nonlnear exponent$\rightarrow$leakage current. On the whole, the electrical stability against surge stress increased with increasing sintering time. Conclusively, it is assumed that the varistor sintered for 2 h exhibited comparatively good characteristics, in view of overall characteristics.

Damages of lightning surge for low voltage equipments in the house are increasing due to electronic equipments working in more and more low voltage and becoming smaller. And that is increasing due to increase communication networks in the information-oriented society. So, to achieve effective method of surge protection, there are needs for correlation between indoor wire and propagation aspect of lightning surge. Therefore this paper describes as a result of experiments for propagation aspect of lightning surge according to arrangement of indoor wire.
