This paper describes the overvoltage obtained by surge behavior analysis in testing underground distribution systems. Model systems consist of overhead distribution line and underground cable. Such model system considered various characteristics of actual distribution systems will be soon constructed at testing yard. Simulation is carried out under various states such as cable kinds, cable length, lightning wave and time, and branch circuits. Model is established by EMTP/ATPDraw. Line Constants are calculated by ATP_LCC. When the direct lightning surge strikes on conductor of overhead line, the overvoltage is calculated using EMTP/ATPDraw in many cases. Simulation results will be compared with real testing results at testing yard in the near future. The compared results will be used to establish protection methods in actual underground distribution systems.

Lightning surge damages of low voltage equipments in building are increasing due to increase in electrical and communication networks in the information-oriented society And electrical circuits with semiconductor are very weak against lightning surge. To achieve effective method of surge protection on low voltage lines, there are needs for the relationship between propagation aspects of lightning surge and arrangement of indoor wire. This paper describes the experimental study on the relationship between them. This result may be raw data for establishment of surge protection system.

Electronic circuits are becoming more vulnerable owing to the development of integrated circuit. Computer and info-communication facilities are very sensitive to surges caused by lightning, and they can suffer a malfunction and damage. Recent concern about damage and upset caused by transient overvoltages has focused on surge protection. The most important parameter in surge protection is the transient grounding impedance. In this paper, the transient grounding impedances of a rod electrode have been measured under impulse current waves. Z-t, Z-i and V-i characteristics of the grounding electrode in according to the length of the grounding lead wire were obtained and analyzed.

Pulsed power systems consist of a capacitor bank, an isolated high-voltage charging power-supply, high-current bus-work for charging and discharging and a control system. In such pulsed power systems, the operating-lifetime of the capacitors is closely dependent on the voltage reversal. Hence, most capacitor-discharging systems includes crowbar circuits. The crowbar circuit prevents the capacitor recharging with reverse voltage. Usually it consists of crowbar resistors and high pulse-current diode-stacks connected in series. The requirements for the diode-stacks are fast-recovery time and high-voltage and large-current ratings, which results in the high cost of the pulsed-power system. This paper presents a protection scheme of a charging and discharging system of a 500kJ capacitor bank using a low-cost crowbar circuit and safety-fuses.

무방향성 규소강판을 사용한 자기식 네온관용 변압기는 내구성이 좋은 반면에 용량에 따른 규소 강판의 무게가 무겁고 외형이 큰 관계로 네온관 설치 작업 시 상당히 불편한 점이 많다. 또한 네온관의 다양한 디스플레이 제어성면에서도 비합리적 이었다. 이를 개선하기 위한 방법으로 네온 트랜스포머의 전원장치 및 2차측 고압 출력부를 고속의 고주파 스위칭 파워 트랜지스터(MOSFET)를 이용하여 상용주파수 60［Hz］를 고속 스위칭 제어를 통하여 20［KHz］의 고주파로 변환시킨후, 네온관을 방전시키기 위한 고전압을 발생시키는 인버터식 네온관용 변압기를 구현하였다. 또한 네온관의 파손이나 누전으로 인한 화재나 인체 감전의 위험을 사전에 방지할 수 있는 보호회로 GFCI(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)를 제안 하였다.

With the abnormal weather phenomena caused by global warming, the frequency and intensity of lightning strikes are increasing, and lightning accidents are becoming one of the biggest causes of failures and accidents in offshore wind turbines. In order to secure generator operation reliability, effective and practical measures are needed to reduce lightning damage. Because offshore wind turbines are tall structures installed at sea, the possibility of direct lightning strikes is very high compared to other structures, and the role of surge protection devices to minimize damage to the electrical and electronic circuits inside the wind turbine is very important. In this study, a varistor, which is a key element for a class 1 surge protection device for direct lightning protection, was developed. The current density was improved by changing the varistor composition, and the distance between the electrode located on the varistor surface and the edge of the varistor was optimized through a simulation program to improve the fabrication process. Considering the combined effects of heat distribution, electric field distribution, and current density on the optimized varistor surface, silver electrodes were formed with a gap of 0.5 mm. The varistor developed in this study was confirmed to have an energy tolerance of 10/350 ㎲, 50kA, which is a representative direct lightning current waveform, and good protection characteristics with a limiting voltage of 2 kV or less.
