Abstract

Since the year 2008, the first demonstration project of the superconducting cable for the KEPCO grid operation has been in progress. To apply the HTS (High Temperature Superconducting) cable system into the commercial network, a new test complex was built in the 154kV Icheon substation and the on site assembly of 22.9kV, 50MVA HTS cable with the cryogenic refrigeration system was finished. A full scale of HTS cable fabricated with 2nd generation wire is to be in service in KEPCO network. In this paper, a series of processes of the installation and operation test are introduced.
