Study on Lightning-Induced Plasma Extinguishing in 10 kV Distribution Network Lines Based on Electronegative Gas Trifluoroiodomethane

open access: yesPlasma
Plasma arcs generated by lightning strikes are prone to tripping distribution lines, especially 10 kV lines. To reduce the lightning-induced tripping rate of 10 kV distribution lines and ensure the safe operation of power systems, this paper proposes a ...

Quasi-single phase permanent fault identification method and reclosing strategy based on multi-level confidence rules

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrical Power & Energy Systems
As global temperatures rise, the frequency of lightning increases, making lightning one of the principal threats to power-system security. Field incidents indicate that, within the automatic reclosing time window, multiple-stroke lightning can exhibit ...
