The failure occurs in the system of the underground transmission line, the time of restoration is very long, the damage from stopping power supply is very serious and the cost of restoration is very great. because of these problems, the system and equipment must be protected from every electrical failure by installing protection unit. This study is summarized and compared the effects of configuration method of cable protection device with respect to surges in EHV (Extra High Voltage) underground transmission system.

Because the overhead transmission lines are exposed to the outdoor weather, the faults of the transmission lines are due to natural conditions, and among these faults, the outage rate by lightning is about $50\%$. Therefore, the insulation design is important to decrease the damage of the facility and to increase the reliability of electric power system. This paper describes the protective method of substation equipments using the Underbuilt Ground Wire and the Guy Wire. This would not only reduce backflashover possibility but also minimize crest and duration of surges entering the substation. EMTP is used to analyze the efficiency of the proposed methods.

Recently, the increasing need for internet and the activation of hiring business of communication line makes the demand for OPGW cable which can construct the optical communication network in the basis of existing overhead power transmission line. Especially, the demand is focused on the high fiber count OPGW due to high capacity transmission. In step with the trend toward high fiber count cable we have developed the Stainless Steel Loose Tube type OPGW within which have 144core firstly in KOREA. This paper describes the cable design and manufacturing process which gives the stable operation in very severe conditions and the long-term reliability test results conducted in according to dominant specification IEEE Std. 1138-1194.

A portable equipment that measures a current and voltage waveform of power transmission lines is pro-posed. In the equipment, the current and voltage, respectively, are detected by a loop coil and a capacitor clamped around the power lines. The detected data is transmitted by an FM wave to the receiver on the ground station. Since the receiver is isolated from the power lines, we do not require high potential insulators for the measurement of current and voltage. The proposed equipment is therefore, small-sized, light, and low in the cost of production. Experimental results presented here show that the equipment can monitor the current flowing in single wire over a ground plane and the potential of the wire.

In this paper, we introduce a live wire power transmission line fault detection system using time-frequency domain reflectometry(TFDR). The TFDR is known that is more precise method than the other conventional ones. However, the TFDR is generally adopted only in fault detection for communication cable, and dead line power transmission line. Therefore, this paper suggests a TFDR system with coupler which separates 220V, 60Hz signal and TFDR reference signal for implementation the live wire fault detection system. This approach is verified by circuit simulation.

The controversy over the risk of the human body being affected by electromagnetic fields emitted from 60 Hz power lines continues without end. There are currently no new studies or research progress being made in this direction that is notable, and the number of civil complaints is gradually increasing. The problem is that each study produces different results, among which the effect of exposure to magnetic fields on childhood leukemia is a major one. In Korea, an electrician who was maintaining a 22.9 kV power line died of leukemia, which has recently been recognized as an occupational disease. Methods to reduce magnetic fields from power lines include shielding with wire loops, incorporating split phases and compaction techniques, installing underground power lines, converting to high-voltage direct current (HVDC), and increasing the ground clearance of transmission towers. Depending on whether a separate power supply is needed or not, there are two types of wire loops: passive loop and active loop. Magnetic field reduction is currently done through underground power lines; however, the disadvantage of this process is high construction costs. Installing passive loops, with relatively low construction costs, leads to lower magnetic field reduction rates than installing underground cables and a weakness to not solving the landscape problem. This methodological study aims at designing methods and reducing the effects of 2-wire set loops-the simplest and most practical. Since the method proposed in this study has been designed after analyzing the distribution of complex electromagnetic fields near the expected loop installation location, a practical design can be implemented without the need for any difficult optimization programming.

There is a method for stringing conductors which is connected to a wire over transmission towers by helicopter or human power and the wire and conductors are pulled by an engine puller. The length of one string section is usually 4-6 km and 2-4 conductors are strung at the same time with a single wire. A tensioner is used to maintain the sag and a running board is installed between the wire and conductors to prevent the rotation of conductors but the variance in topology, the line angle and unequal wiring tension between conductors causes conductor rotation damage or the conductor connection point to breakaway when the pulley is passed. This paper presents a method to prevent conductor rotation during stringing by inserting a pulley in the running board and equally maintaining conductor tension by sling wire after developing and testing.

About 20 years have passed since cross-linked polyethylene(XLPE) came into practical use for power transmission cables. In 1969, We were the first to product 33kV XLPE insulated cables, and in 1984 produced XLPE cable for 154kV. To meet the increasing demand for electric power in large cities, and to improve reliability of the power supply, plans are being made to introduce ultrahigh-tension power cable for long distance underground lines in urban areas. Studies are currently under way to develop more than 154kV XLPE cables to meet increasing demand. In this paper presents the progress in the production and design of XLPE cables, and describes ways in which further improvements seems likely.

Wireless power transmission which can transmit the electrical power through the air is the promise technology. In this paper, the effects of wireless power transmission using magnetic resonance method have been studied on coil material, resonance frequency, and antenna type. We have found copper tube as a coil material had the better characteristics than that of enameled wire, and the optimal resonance frequency was 13.6MHz in the range of from 1MHz to 20MHz. And the double square spiral type antenna as a load coil was the best. The power transmission distance by magnetic resonance method with 13.6MHz was 150 cm.

In this paper, we calculate the magnetic field and analyze the inductive interference in conductive material around power transmission line. To compute induced eddy currents as well as magnetic fields, finite element method(FEM) is used for numerical calculation. The characteristics, transmission line height, conductive earth and mitigation wire are taken account of FEM analysis. This research also shows that mitigation wire reduces amount of eddy current in buried pipe line.
