Due to the recent earthquakes in Korea, many cases of damage to anchorage of the electric cabinet in the power plant have been reported. Accordingly, for the purpose of reviewing the seismic safety, a study on the load characteristics transmitted to the anchorage during an earthquake is proceeding. It was investigated that the load transmitted to the anchorage also changes according to the change in the natural frequency of the cabinet. However, in the case of cabinets used in the actual field, it is necessary to prove the results of previous studies under more diverse conditions because they are composed of various stiffness. In this study, a structure replacing a cabinet was manufactured and the load transmitted to the anchorage under various conditions was analyzed through an experimental and analytical approach. As a result of this study, it was confirmed that the load transmitted to the anchorage increases as the natural frequency of the structure increases, and a correlation equation between the natural frequency of the structure and the transmission load of the anchorage was derived. Using the correlation equation proposed in this study is expected to help identify the load delivered to the cabinet anchorage under an earthquake.
