Weight Structures

The Korean peninsula is under increasing threat of electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) from neighboring countries; EMP protection facilities are an essential means of ensuring the operational readiness of the military. However, existing EMP protection facilities are manufactured as fixed-weight structures, which limit the mobility of military operations and lead to the misconception of EMP protection as something only required for higher command. The current military and official EMP protection standards require only a uniform shielding effectiveness of 80 dB. Therefore, this study aims to differentiate the existing uniform level of shielding effectiveness of 80 dB into 80 dB, 60 dB, 40 dB, etc. Further, it seeks to derive the factors to be considered when applying various methods, such as shielding rooms, shielding racks, site redundancy, spare equipment, and portable lightweight protective tents, for recovery of failure, instead of the existing protection facilities that rely on shielded rooms by the Delphi analysis. Then, the applicability of lightweight EMP protection is determined after selecting lightweight materials to build a facility. The electromagnetic shielding performance of 21 types of materials was measured in the 30 MHz–1.5 GHz frequency band using ASTM-D-4935-10. The results showed the possibility of developing a lightweight EMP shielding facility, which would save approximately 316,386 tons of concrete, reducing the CO2 emissions by approximately 9,972,489 tons. Assuming that the Korean carbon transaction price is USD 50/ton CO2, the savings are equivalent to USD 49,862,435.

Novi Sad

In the distribution area of Novi Sad, owned by ODS EPS Distribucija, there are 35 substations 35/10kV that are on average over 50 years old. Considering the tendency to gradually eliminate the voltage levels of 35kV and 10kV in this distribution area and the transition to the voltage level of 20kV, some of these substations are planned for reconstruction into 20kV distribution plants. Reconstruction of these substations requires large financial resources, because their construction part is in a very bad condition, electric power equipment is unreliable and difficult to maintain, and operational readiness is an increasingly important factor in presenting successful business. During the reconstruction of these transformer stations, the possibility of a backup power supply route for electricity customers, the speed of intervention and the smooth performance of preventive maintenance must be taken into account. The appearance of reclosers opened a new chapter in the world of electricity. Namely, now the above problems and requirements can be solved in a simpler and cheaper way with the use of reclosers. The paper will present a proposal for the reconstruction of the substaion 35/10 kV "Kuzmin" in the area of the Branch Distribution Sremska Mitrovica, which has been operating for more than 60 years, in an external 20 kV distribution plant formed with the help of reclosers built on steel lattice poles. The proposed solution can be used to solve the same or similar problems, primarily in the distribution area of Novi Sad.
