This paper presents a two-terminal approach for fault location estimation and for faults recognition. The proposed algorithm is also based on the synchronized phasors measured from the synchronized PMUs installed at two-terminals of the transmission lines. Also the arc voltage wave shape is modeled numerically on the basis of a great number of arc voltage records obtained by transient recorder. From the calculated arc voltage amplitude it can make a decision whether the permanent or transient fault. The results of the proposed algorithm testing through computer simulation are given.

Also the arc voltage wave shape is modeled numerically on the basis of a great number of arc voltage records. Also, the two-terminal fault algorithm for the long line model is derived in the spectral domain.

During ground faults in power system, large current and raised potential appear at nearby places. This paper presents an analytical procedure of the ground fault current for the towers of a transmission line(154kV) and distribution line(22.9kV) of an arbitrary number of spans during ground faults. In order to economically and securely protect against undesired consequences, it is necessary to evaluate as precisely as possible the value and distribution of the ground fault current.

With the 4-MJ synthetic testing facilities completed, KERI can perform the circuit breaker testing up to 420 kV, 50 kA ratings. The short-line fault test is one of the necessary test items which are required for the circuit breaker, and in order to perform the short-line fault test KERI(Korea Electrotechnology Institute) has used the "new artificial line" which has small dimension and is easy to generate the saw-tooth wave. This paper describes the following items of the new artificial line. -Description of 4-kinds of artificial lines and determination of the circuit parameter of artificial line. -TRV characteristics of saw-tooth waves for each circuit. -KERI's artificial line.

k-bounded circuits are combinational circuits proposed by Fujiwara whose subcircuits are partitioned in a way that they form a tree and have some restricted k inputs respectively. Fujiwara proposed a O($16^{k}m$) fault detection algorithm for k-bounded circuits where m is the number of signal lines in the circuit. This algorithm is very ineffective to be applied to real circuits, even for small values of k. In this paper, it is shown that a single stuck-at fault in k-bounded circuits can be detected in O($2^{k}m$)time, and multiple stuck-at faults are detected in O($4^{k}m$) time by using thable lookup and imput partitionsing.

In this paper we propose multi-grounded neutral design method which was considered of transferred transient overvoltage when line to neutral fault occurs. Specially, In order to confirm the actual transient overvoltage magnitude which occurs on neutral line, we considered some screening(shielding) effects. The screening coefficient was deducted from field test results and calculation in a distribution line which is identical with an actual power line. The purpose of this paper is to attempt to suggest the guidance for grounding skystem design considering limitation of overvoltage for LV side in IEC 61936. The result is based on EMTP simulation and real field faults situation in distribution lines.

In case of a line-to-ground fault at transmission lines, a portion of fault current will flow into the earth through the footings of the faulted tower causing electrical potential rise nearby the faulted tower footings. In this situation, any buried pipelines or structures nearby the faulted tower can be exposed to the electrical stress by earth potential rise. Although many research works has been conducted on this phenomena, there has been no clear answer of the required separation distance between tower footings and neary buried pipeline because of its dependancy on the soil electrical charactersics of the concerned area and the faulted system. In this paper, an analytical formula to calculate the requried sepeartion distance from the faulted tower has been derived.

This paper describes the effect of transient state in underground transmission and distribution lines installed together in the same tunnel. Two systems installed in the same tunnel are operated by the common grounding. This paper analyzed that how much one of the two kinds of systems influences the other systems during the transient state by EMTP/ATPDraw. Single line-to-ground fault and lightning surge were selected in transient state condition. These cases were simulated variously according to the variation of common grounding magnitude, fault location and lightning surge magnitude. It is evaluated that the analyzed results will be used for establishment and operating materials of common grounding in the same tunnel.

DOCR can be used to efficiently increase the reliability and to protect the bi-directional D/L(Distribution Lines). As more DG(Distributed Generation)s attempt to connect the bi-directional D/L, there is an increasing need for studies of how to use DOCR installed in the D/L. This paper investigates the operating principles of DOCR and presents the results an effect of sequence and fault impedance in L-L(Line to Line) fault. An advanced DOCR operating algorithm is proposed to reduce the mal-operation of conventional DOCR. The proposed algorithm is applied to the bi-directional power flow system and shows that it decreases the mal-operation of DOCR through the computer simulation.

The Conventional approach for estimating the locations of transmission line shunt faults has been to measure the apparent impedance to the fault from a line terminal and to convert the reactive component of the impedance to line length. But, these methods do not adequately address the problems associated with the fault location on distribution systems. This thesis presents a technique that estimates the location of shunt fault on a radial distribution system that has several single and multiphase laterals. Tapped loads and non-homogenity of the distribution system are take into account. The developed technique, which can handle shunt faults was tested to evaluate its suitability. Results from computer simulation of faults on a model of a 25KV distribution lines like real system are presented. The results approved that the proposed technique works well for estimating the locations of the distribution line shunt faults.
