Surface contamination and leakage current have caused operating problems. A flashover in a substation may result in destruction of an insulator or many others electrical equipment. Engineering plastics have good characteristic (light weight, good productivity and little of void) as compare with epoxy or porcelain insulators. Outdoor insulator must have resistance to contamination. However, they are not suited to outdoor insulator by reason of being not good hydrophobic. RTV has a good property of hydrophobic and ATH has characteristic obstructing exothermic reaction. In order to reduce the incidence of insulator flashover and damage, the silicon rubber contained nano size ATH coat on surface of engineering plastics. In this paper, it compares resistance tracking of the engineering plastic coated RTV with that of non-coated engineering plastic and ATH filled composites performed much better than non-filled composites.

The main objective of this paper is to design and test a new type of polymer ZnO surge arrester for AC power system of railroad vehicles. Metal oxide surge arrester for most electric power system applications, electric train and must not have explosive breakage of the housing to minimize damage to other equipment when subjected to internal high short circuit current. When breakdown of ZnO elements in a surge arrester occurs due to flashover, fault short current flows through the arrester and internal pressure of the arrester rises. The pressure rise can usually be limited by fitting a pressure relief diaphragm and transferring the arc from the inside to the outside of the housing. However, there is possibility of porcelain fragmentation caused by the thermal shock. pressure rise, etc. Non-fragmenting of the housing is the most desired way to prevent damage to other equipment. The pressure change which is occurred by flashover become discharge energy. This discharge energy raises to damage arrester housing and arrester housing is dispersed as small fragment. Therefore, the pressure relief design is requested to obstruct housing dispersion. The main research works are focused on the structure design by finite element method, pressure relief of module, and studies of performance of surge arrester for electric railway vehicle.

The global trend is to make transmission lines light weight and compact by using insulators and other equipment made of advanced materials. In Korea, the diversification of insulators supply route has begun in order to obtain price competitiveness. In May 1999, polymer insulators were finally introduced for the first time and installed to the 154kV transmission lines. After that, the construction and procurement standards were made and domestic polymer insulators were developed. And then, foreign and domestic manufacturers were registered in KEPCO as qualified insulator suppliers. As of 2010, purchasing polymer insulators by competitive bidding from foreign and domestic manufacturers has been possible. For this reason, it was decided to reduce the use of porcelain insulators and increase the use of polymer insulators taking the installation price into consideration
