Sensitivity Assessment of Lightning Protection Device Aging Effect on Distribution Substation Insulation

Authors

Abstract:

 Insufficient electrical endurance of equipment and insulation failure against overvoltage is one of the most effective reasons for failure the power line. Lightening, switching or other disruptive parameters can cause line outage or distribution substation failure. There are different devices used to improve the safety, reliability, and power quality of the system. Surge arresters are one of the insulation protection subsystems against surge and switching overvoltages. In this paper, the effects of surge arrester performances have been investigated on the insulation system of distribution substation. These studies have been done under normal and also transient conditions due to lightning overvoltages. The effects of failure rate, production quality, voltage stress, temperature and surge arrester permutation have been evaluated on surge arrester performances. The influence of surge arrester aging as the most influential factor on surge arrester performance has been investigated on the reliability of distribution substation. Obtained results verify a great impact of surge arrester aging effect on the reliability of protection system: Insufficient electrical endurance of equipment and insulation failure against overvoltage is one of the most effective reasons for failure the power line.

Lightning Protection of Overhead Power Distribution Lines

Distribution lines are often located in areas with high ground flash densities, being therefore subject to lightning-caused power interruptions. This paper presents an overview of the various types of lightning overvoltages that can arise on overhead power distribution networks, as well as typical voltage waveforms. The effectivenesses of the most important methods for mitigating such overvolta...

Designing Concept on Lightning Protection of Overhead Power Distribution Line

The principle is shown for lightning protection of power distribution lines taking the effects of surge arresters, overhead ground wires and their combined use into consideration. Moreover an outline of a rational design method targeting direct lightning hits, induced overvoltages and backflow currents from high structures.

Lightning Protection of Ehv Substations in Iran

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.

Lightning Impulse Ageing of Hv Cable Insulation

Lightning impulses can lead to accelerated ageing of extruded cables. Electrical behaviour of a dielectric material when experiencing a lightning impulse is different to that for DC or power frequency applied voltages. Pre-designed shaped HDPE material samples have been manufactured using a mould tool. The samples then have been electrically aged using an impulse generator. A real-time software...

Study on Lightning Intruding Overvoltage in Yantan Extension Substation

500kV substation is especially important to the grid of our country, once it encounters lightning damage, the safety and reliability of the whole power system will be directly affected. As lightning intruding waves will cause overvoltage on electric equipments by intruding from the transmission line or straightly stroking the substation, which seriously influences the insulation level of equipm...
