As global trade system transferred GATT into WTO, the harmonization of technological standards, certification, construction, testing is the trend of world. This drift is based on WTO / TBT agreement coming. In effect after 12th, April, 1979. For Korea, the distribution system has a strong resemblance to American system so that engineers are confused in adopting standards. IEC60364 and NEC are in part similar but unconvertible because IEC 60364 originated from Europe while NEC originated from USA. This thesis deals with the fundamental elements of electrical safety system with comparing IEC 60364 with NEC. It serves as a guide how to apply standards when engineers select electrical installations.

Most of the laws and standards relevant to technology in Korea bear a resemblance to those in Japan. Electricity was not introduced to Korea until Lighting ceremony in Kyong-Bok palace observed in 1887. Since Korea was annexed to Japan in 1910 and our public works were under Japan control we have applied Japanese laws and regulations made by Chosun government-general. Independently from Japan the power electricity accepted power plants of USA, codes of NESC, ASME / ANSI, NEMA. Our generation and distribution system takes American style while our consumer side takes Japanese style. As global trade system was transferred GATT into WTO, the harmonization of technological standards, certification construction testing in the trend of world. This paper is based on WTO / TBT agreement coming in effect after 12th, April, 1979. For Korea the distribution system has a strong resemblance to American system so that unconvertible because IEC 60364 originated from Europe while NEC originated from USA. This papers deals with the fundamental elements of electrical safety system with comparing IEC 60364 with NEC. This paper considers how engineers should apply NFPA 70(NEC) and IEC based on the comparison of NEC to IEC in relation to electrical installations.

Most Technological laws of Korea are almost identical to those of Japan. Electricity was not introduced to Korea until lighting ceremony in Kyong-Bok palace observed in 1887. Since Korea was annexed to Japan in 1910, Korea have applied Japanese law and regulations made by Chosun government-general. And public works were under Japan control. Korea accepted adopted the power plants of America, codes of NESC, ASME / ANSI, MEMA while Japan accepted or adopted only IEC. Our generation distribution system takes American style while our consumer side takes Japanese style. As global trade system was transferred GATT into WTO, the technological standards, certification, construction and testing are in harmony internationally. The WTO / TBT agreement came in effect after 12th, April, 1979. The sections in the agreement require the members to exchange their own standards and codes for the harmonized ones by degree. The Korean distribution system has a strong resemblance to American system so that the internal engineers are confused in application of the relevant standards. IEC60364 and NEC are technologically similar but practically unconvertible because both have their different originality, that is to say Europe and USA. This paper deals with the fundamental elements of electrical safety system on review of IEC 60364 and NEC. This paper considers how engineers should apply IEC60364 and NFPA 70(NEC) based on all-the-way review of them.

Owing to WTO/TBT, Many countries are trying to accord their own various national codes and standards with international standards. Also Korean electric power code is being made consistent with the new standards which include the international standards. The new code will affect the many aspects of building construction. In order to cope with the change of the electric power code, this paper analyzed the trend of the international standard(IEC 60364, IEC 61024) and we think this study will help engineers to understand the international electrical standards.

After 1th line was built in 1974, the history of subway in Korea has been expended to 9th line which is under construction. It is time to prepare nation wide subway grounding system urgently according to the domestic electric standard that aligns to world wide standard by WTO/TBT treat (1995). Newly added grounding system to the fundamentally different system caused many problems. PSD(platform screen door) and other newly added equipment are also need grounding system. By the electrical code(established by Korea Electric Association), low voltage equipment(including grounding system) under 1,000V AC are in the process of change into IEC 60374. IEC 60364 standard will be added to the electrical code(established by Korea Electric Association) in 2007 and amended and after 3-5 years later, it will become a complete IEC 60364. So the purpose of this study is to compare the domestic rail road grounding system and suggest the standardized grounding system for the newly built subway.

IEC is an international standards which are used in many countries with Europe as the center. IEC standard is introduced in Korea according to WTO/TBT agreements, however until now there are no buildings in Korea which are designed applying IEC standard. Therefore, KEA(Korea Electric Association) is scheduled to construct Korean low voltage electrical installation integration test site which is designed applying IEC standard. In this paper, before being under construction of Korean low voltage electrical installation integration test site, power substation is modeled based on real design parameters and method to select circuit breakers and cables is presented applying IEC standard in the modeled power substation. EMTP(ElctroMagnetic Transient Program) is used for simulation program. EMTP which is power system analysis program is easy to model power system and power substation.

WTO/TBT 협정에 따라 2006년부터 IEC 전선의 전면적인 사용과 전기설비기술기준의 판단기준에 IEC 60364 저압전기설비분야의 도입으로 국내현장에서 국제표준을 적용할 수 있게 되었다. 그러나 국제표준(IEC)은 내용이 포괄적이며, 원론적인 부분을 다루고 있어 실제 현장 적용에 많은 어려움이 있다. 이에 따라 대한전기협회에서는 국제표준(IEC)을 기초로 하여 국제수준과 대등한 "한국전기규정 KEC"를 제정중이며, 본 연구는 KS C IEC 60364-5-52 기초로 작성한 KEC 제2편 저압전기설비분야 제43장 배선설비의 제정현황을 소개하는 것이다.
