In this study, we developed intelligent spacer built in the internal type UHF PD sensors. 3-Dimensional electro-magnetic simulations were performed to analyze electric-field distribution of the single-phase GIS and three-phase GIS. After considering the spacer's specification, Sensor structures were designed and analyzed using the 3-D EM Simulator. As a result of the simulation the internal type UHF PD sensors were built in. Performance of the sensor built into real scale GIS spacer was measured in terms of return loss and detected Max voltage. And we identified a character of the intelligent spacer by using 5pC partial discharge ceil.

This paper describes the effect of various conditions of the ribs on the breakdown characteristics when metal particle is attached to the spacer in GIS. More improved spacer shape in breakdown characteristics than conventional one is proposed by comparing the results acquired by varying location, length and thickness of the ribbed spacer. As a result, it was found that the electrical breakdown characteristics of the spacer with two ribs were generally better than that with only one rib or no ribs, and it was dependent on the rib length and rib thickness. Especially, it was also confirmed that the electrical breakdown characteristics were more improved by rounding the rib edge.

7 type composites (40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, and 70 wt.%)were prepared for the environmentally friendly GIS Spacer. Five kinds of samples were prepared for optimization of the filler content ratio (MS: MA = 1: 9, 3: 7, 5: 5, 7: 3, 9: 1) of epoxy / microsilica and microalumina. As a result of evaluation of the partial discharge resistance characteristic, surface erosion is generally slowed down as the fill amount of micro silica is increased. Also, partial discharge resistance characteristics for the development of insulating materials with optimal mixing ratios of heterologous showed a higher partial resistance of discharge and a decrease in erosion, as the filler content ratio of micro silica was larger. In the future, various researches such as electrical, mechanical, and thermal studies will be needed to develop insulating materials that can commercialize power devices in environmentally friendly insulating gas.

Recently, with the miniaturization of GIS, there is a need for the miniaturization of spacers as accessories. Miniaturized spacers make it difficult to secure adequate insulation distances, resulting in a more concentrated electric field at the triple junction of high-voltage (HV) conductor-insulator (spacer)-insulation gas (SF₆), which is a weakness in GIS. Therefore, by introducing a new concept design technology, functionally graded material (FGM), which is recently applied to various materials and parts industries, three-dimensional control of the dielectric constant distribution in a spacer can be expected to alleviate triple-junction electric field occupancy and improve insulation performance. In this study, we propose an optimized model using NSGA-II to optimize the permittivity distribution of FGM applied spacer.

In this paper, electric field distribution of GIS by changing conductivity of spacer is analysed by the use of 3 dimensional Surface Charge Method. We find electric field distribution inside GIS was much influenced when volume resistance are lower than $10^7[\Omega-cm]$.

In this Study, the insulation safety for Closing Resistor and Disconnect Switch(DS) of 362kV GIS was estimated through 3 dimensional electric field analysis. In addition, the basic study to secure the electric insulation design technique was carried out through the research on the effect of a metallic particle which is generated in the GIS. As a result of 3 dimensional electric field analysis, it was found that the insulation capability of Closing Resistor and DS of 362kV GIS is stable electrically. Also, the fundamental data to improve the insulation capability of spacer was obtained by analyzing the maximum electric field according to the attached angle of a metallic particle which is attached on the surface of a spacer.

The effect of ribbed spacers having metallic particle attached to the post-type spacer on dielectric breakdown phenomena has been investigated using electric field analysis for imaginary streamer process and a breakdown experiment. It was described that the electric field analysis and the dielectric breakdown test were performed on the case that the particle was attached to the various position of the ribbed spacer having various shapes. As a result, the breakdown voltage of the spacer with two ribs was highest, and it was varied by the length and the thickness of the rib. Especially, in case of the rib with round edge, the breakdown voltage was higher than that with rectangular edge, which complied with the result through the field analysis.

Epoxy resin insulators show a lot of advantages for electrical power apparatus. Because epoxy resin provide electrical and mechanical characteristic which is excellent, it is desirable to apply epoxy resin as a spacer and post insulation in Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS). In this study, we have investigated the influence of surface electric field attached particle contaminated spacer surfaces under SF6 gas. Also, we performed analysis of electric field. As a result, when the particle was attached on spacer, we found out a surface electric field of characteristics.

This paper analyzed the effect of ribs on the breakdown characteristics when a metallic particle attaches on the various spot of GIS spacer, using electric field analysis. Also, it was compared with the experimental result of breakdown voltage characteristics for the spacer with a metallic particle on its various spot and with the shape, the length, and the thickness of the ribs varying. The results of electric field analysis show that the electric field concentration of the rib is more weakened than other parts and therefore it restrains the proceeding of streamer, which occurs at the breakdown. And it is verified through experiments that the breakdown voltage of the spacer with rib is higher than that of the spacer without rib. The breakdown characteristics depend on the shape, the length, and the thickness of the rib as well. Also, it is confirmed by the electric field analysis and the experimental results that the electric breakdown characteristics could be improved by rounding the rib edge.
