It becomes difficult and high in cost to construct new ducts and/or tunnels for power cables in domestic areas. This paper presents possible strategy of an HTS distribution cables for distributing electric power in local areas as niche marketing. Reflected were its important distinction such as system configuration, rationale, establishment of strategy and considerably high economical efficiency compared with present underground cables. In this paper, applicable important items by using HTS distribution cables in water pumping powerhouse and distribution substation as example objective regions were reviewed. Based on this, the following items on distribution HTS system are examined. (I)A review of constructing a model system to introduce high temperature superconducting distribution cables to objective areas is presented. (2)The strategy to capture HTS distribution cable in water pumping powerhouse and distribution substation as niche marketing regions were reviewed. (3)In concrete, system configuration, rationale, establishment of strategy and considerably high economical efficiency are reviewed between existing cable and HTS one.

The use of underground transmission cables has increased continuously in densely inhabited urban and suburban for power transmission. Two or more transmission lines are outgoing from one substation in many cases, and one line comprises twin circuits. In order to meet the increasing do and for electric power, underground tables of two or fore circuits are installed in ducts in parallel for several kilometer in the same route. It, however, has not been known generally that the sheath circulating current is generated in a system where a large number of cables are laid on the same route. Therefore, this paper describes an improved analysis method for sheath circulating current on underground transmission cables using EMTP. Author propose several methods to reduce sheath circulating current. The analysing method and reduction methods for two or more underground cables will be really improved for cable system utility.

It becomes difficult and high in cost to construct new ducts and/or tunnels for power cables in metropolitan areas. This paper presents possible applications of an HTS superconducting power cables for transmitting electric power in metropolitan areas. Reflected were its important distinction such as compactness for installation in underground ducts and considerably high efficiency compared with present underground cables. In this paper, system modeling, transmission capacity and voltage class of compact HTS cables which should be applied to existing ducts were reviewed. Based on this, the following items on urban transmission system are examined. (1) A method of constructing a model system to introduce high temperature superconducting cables to metropolitan areas is presented. (2)The maximum outer diameter of HTS cables to be accommodated in exiting ducts is calculated based on the design standards for current cable ducts. (3)The voltage level that can be accommodated by existing ducts is examined.

This paper covers induced voltage in parallel telecommunication cable with underground power cable to be linked between substations. The simulation was carried out the induced voltage in telecommunication cable according to the transposition of power cables and fault location for various conditions. This study based on the EMTP/ATPDraw with actual underground cable systems while the power cables are in steady state and transient state.

In this work, we have performed the application experiment for real distribution line to diagnose the underground power cables using DC voltage decay measurement system. We have also performed the Isothermal Relaxation Current test for the same distribution line using KDA-l. We could confirmed possibility of grading the insulation aging state of underground power cables. Therefore, we conclude that it is possible to apply DC voltage decay method to the real distribution line.

The goal of this study is the size and distribution of the electromagnetic force generated by the current flowing through the second underground line of 154kV power transmission cables by using electromagnetic finite element analysis. So we interpret how mutually electromagnetic force has an effect on the comparable judgement of Trefoil, Duct and Flat, which shows in a numerical arrangement. 154kV OF 1200SQ Cable 1.281km not only is applicable to modeling for underground transmission cable but also examine the effect of line to line, phase to phase and size and direction of the electromagnetic force preparing for the occurrence of normal state and single-phase earth fault, which are arranged in trefoil, duct and flat formation between sections. As showing how the trajectory, and size distribution of the electromagnetic force translate as the arrangement of the cables when a steady-state current and a fault current flows on the underground cables, I hope that when Underground transmission is designed, this data will be useful information.

The line impedance is important data that are applied in all analysis fields of electric power system such as power flow, fault current, stability and relay calculation etc. Usually, the impedance can be accurately calculated in case of overhead line. However, in case of power cables or combined transmission lines, the impedance can not be accurately calculated because cable systems have the sheath, grounding wires, and earth resistances. Therefore, if there is a fault in cable system, these terms will severely be caused many errors for calculating impedance. In this paper, the line impedance is measured in a power system of underground cables, and is analyzed by a generalized circuit analysis program, EMTP(Electromagnetic Transient Program), for comparison with the measured value. These analysis results are considered to become foundation of impedance calculation for underground cables.

This paper proposes an algorithm of analyzing the conductor temperature distribution of underground power cables buried ill ducts. This algorithm used an equation of the permissible current-carrying capability of power cables. The algorithm will be given to an operator an ability to operate the underground power system in comfort.
