Abstract:

Extra high voltage (EHV) substations are extremely vulnerable to the hazard of lightning strokes therefore, the shielding of these substations with a highly reliable protective scheme (shield wires) is an essential undertaking. In this paper an attempt is made to clarify the design procedure for shielding EHV substations against lightning with special reference to Iran.

New Method of Protection against Lightning Overvoltages for High Voltage GIS Substations

In the present paper simulations of the lightning overvoltages propagation phenomenon in a typical 420 kV SF6 GIS substations are presented. A new overvoltage mitigating passive device in a form of a high-voltage L-C filter is proposed. A process of its development and research is explained along with a simulation results. As demonstrated, the proposed device can be used in HV networks as an al...

Lightning Protection Systems Design for Substations by Using Masts and Matlab

The economical criterion is accounted as the objective function to develop a computer program for designing lightning protection systems for substations by using masts and Matlab in this work. Masts are needed to be placed at desired locations; the program will then show mast heights whose sum is the smallest, i.e. satisfies the economical criterion. The program is helpful for engineers to quic...

Lightning Protection

Lightning causes deaths, injuries, damages, and significant costs and losses around the world. The global lightning flash rate is in the range of 40 to 100 lightning flashes per second, of which about 30 % are cloud-to-ground flashes. The development of theoretical and experimental researches is crucial for a better understanding of the physical phenomenon and for the characterization of lightn...

Lightning Discharge and Fundamentals of Lightning Protection

A review of lightning protection concepts introduced by Benjamin Franklin (18th century) and James Clerk Maxwell (19th century) is given. Modern approaches to lightning protection of various structures and systems are discussed. In particular, the widely used electrogeometrical model (one version of which is the Rolling Sphere Method) and the topological shielding are presented. Bonding require...

Optimal Design of Grounding System for HV/ EHV Substations in Two Layered Soil

Successful operation of entire power system depends to a considerable extent on efficient and satisfactory performance of substations. Hence substations in general can be considered as heart of overall power system. In any substation, a well designed grounding plays an important role. Since absence of safe and effective grounding system can result in mal-operation or non-operation of control an...
