Line sleeves, which used to connect ACSR cables when transmission lines were constructing, sometimes cause power transmission failure due to deterioration and corrosion. Therefore, power transmission line should be inspected regularly to prevent national disaster. Current inspection tool detects insertion length of transmission line on line sleeves, the inspection tool includes enormous error by operator. Moreover, the system is not controlled remotely, negligent accident would be caused while inspecting. To deal with those problems, KEPCO reviewed several ways to inspect line sleeves and proposes new method to inspect line sleeve by measuring magnetic flex which penetrate junction of steel and aluminum sleeve. The developed inspection tool is reliable enough to detect eccentric sleeves. Also, the developed inspection device was applied on actual transmission line and verified its effectiveness.

Distance relay plays an important role in the protection of transmission lines. The application of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices, such as the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), could affect the performance of the distance relay because of compensation effect. This paper analyzes the application of distance relay on the protection of a transmission line containing STATCOM. New setting principles for different protection zones are proposed based on this analysis. A typical 500 kV transmission system employing STATCOM is modeled using Matlab/Simulink. The impact of STATCOM on distance protection scheme is studied for different fault types, fault locations, and system configurations. Based on simulation results, the performance of distance relay is evaluated. The setting principle can be verified for the transmission line with STATCOM.

This paper presents the results of performance confirmation tests for domestic 20 [Ton] transmission suspension insulators which will be widely utilized in transmission lines. The new test methods such as power arc test, steep-front-of-wave flashover voltage test, and etc. which have been only utilized for the distribution insulators were applied in transmission suspension insulators. The properties of metal and cement used in the 20 [Ton] transmission insulators were also evaluated by the various analysis techniques. Based on the results, we evaluated the performance of the transmission suspension insulators.

Today, as power trades between generators and loads are liberalized, the uncertainty level of power systems is rapidly increasing. Therefore, transmission operators are required to incorporate these uncertainties when establishing an investment plan for effective operation of transmission facilities. This paper proposes the methodology for an optimal solution of transmission expansion plans for the long-term in a deregulated power system. The proposed model uses the probabilistic cost of transmission congestion for various scenarios and the annual increasing rates of loads. The locations and the installation times of expanded transmissions lines with minimum cost are acquired by the model. To minimize the investment risk, the Mean-Variance Markowitz portfolio theory is applied to the model. In a case study, the optimal solution of a transmission expansion plan is obtained considering the uncertain power market.

In this study the thermal impact characteristics by forest fire are extensively investigated using temperature controlled ovens. The test conditions for thermal impact damage are simulated according to the characteristics of natural forest fire. The test pieces are suspension porcelain insulators made by KRI in 2005 for transmission lines. In the thermal impact cycle tests with $300\;^{\circ}C$ thermal impact gradient (-70 to $230\;^{\circ}C$), cycling in 10 minute periods, no critical failures occurred in the test samples even with long cycle times. But in tests with thermal impact gradient from room temperature to $200-600\;^{\circ}C$, cycling in 10 to 30 minute periods, there were critical failures of the porcelain insulators according to the thermal impact gradient and quenching method. In the case of thermal impact by forest fire, it was found of that duration time is more important than the cycling time, and the initiation temperature of porcelain insulator failures is about $300\;^{\circ}C$, in the case of water quenching, many cracks and fracture of the porcelain occurred. It was found that the thermal impact failure is closely related to the displacement in the cement by thermal stress as confirmed by simulation. It was estimated that the initiation displacement by the thermal impact of $300\;^{\circ}C$ is about 0.1 %. Above 1% displacement, it is expected that the most porcelain insulators would fail.

본 논문에서는 평판형 전장센서와 멀티턴 루우프형 자장센서를 이용하여 2회선 345[kV] 송전선로에서 발생하 는 극저주파 영역(ELF)의 전장과 자장의 값을 측정하고, 이들의 크기를 3차원 그립으로 나타내었다. 또한, 자장 은 부하전류에 비례하므로 부하변동에 따른 자장의 값올 예측할 수 있도록 그 송전선로의 대표적인 일부하 전류 곡선을 나타내었다 선로 중심점으로부터 횡방향 거리에 대한 측정값을 FIELDS 프로그램에 의해 계산된 이론 값과 비교하였다. 전장의 세기는 송전 철탑 내부와 주변에서 낮게 나타났고, 자장의 경우 최대값이 나타난 지점 은 중부하 회선쪽으로 이동하였으나, 대체로 철탑의 중심부분에서 최대치가 나타나는 경향을 보였다. 송전철탑 주변에서 최대 전장과 자장의 값은 각각 3.5[kV/m]와 $20[{\mu}T]$ 를 초과하지 않았으며, 본 연구에서 측정된 전장과 자장의 값은 관련 여러 국제기관에서 제시한 제한.권고치를 만족시키고 있다.

본 논문에서는 사각형 모양으로 공간 활용성이 높은 콤팩트한 구조를 갖는, 슬롯이 있는 삼각 패치형 인공전송 선로 결합기를 제안한다. 일반적인 결합기는 ${\lambda}$/4 길이의 전송 선로를 사용하기 때문에 소형화의 한계를 가지고 있으나, 이 구조는 ${\lambda}$/4보다 작은 길이일 때 결합기가 최대 결합도를 갖는 특징을 나타내어 소형화에 유리할 뿐만 아니라, 슬롯의 길이를 변화시킴으로써 설계상에 임피던스와 위상 조절에 용이하도록 하였다. 제시된 인공 전송 선로 결합기의 설계 방법을 바탕으로 중심 주파수 2.4 GHz에서 15 dB의 결합기를 시험 제작하여 제시된 방법의 유용성을 보였다.

Low-Voltage power lines should equip surge protection devices which protect electronic equipments and human lives against lightning and abnormal voltages. Data transmission capacity of the power line is determined by frequency characteristics of the surge protective devices. To analyze the effects of surge protective devices on the data transmission performance, various combinations of installation methods are tested which include ZnO varistor elements that is compatible with class I, class II and class III. The result claims that ZnO varistor for class III is found to be one of the main factors that deteriorates the transmission performance. To overcome this problem a serial connection methed between Gap type SPD and ZnO varistor is proposed. With the proposed scheme, laboratory experimental results show that the data transmission performance can be improved up to 91.9[%] with proper SPD combination.

본 논문에서는 right/left-handed특성을 이용한 8 포트 동위상 전력분배기를 제안한다. 이 전력분배기는 사용되는 전송선의 전기적 길이에 상관없이 동위상 분배가 가능하기 때문에 전력 분배기의 크기를 크게 줄일 수 있다. 전력분배기에 사용되는 전송선의 길이가 짧을수록 광대역 특성을 보이며 분배기의 크기는 줄어든다.
