Geomagnetically Induced Currents: Frequency Spectra and Threats to Voltage Stability
Geomagnetically induced currents are induced after a complex interaction between the sun and earth’s magnetic field. GICs may cripple power systems leading to voltage collapse and a drop in power quality.

Nuclear Magnetohydrodynamic EMP, Solar Storms, and Substorms
In addition to a fast electromagnetic pulse (EMP), a high altitude nuclear burst produces a relatively slow magnetohydrodynarnic EMP (MHD EMP), whose effects are like those from solar storm geomagnetically induced currents (SS GIC).

Modelling of geomagnetically induced currents in the Czech transmission grid
We investigate the maximum expected magnitudes of the geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in the Czech transmission power network. We compute a model utilising the Lehtinen–Pirjola method, considering the plane-wave model of the geoelectric field ...

A 3-Phase Current Transducer based on microfluxgate sensors [PDF]
Novel 3-phase DC/AC current transducer for 3-phase current lines is based on 8 integrated fluxgate sensors. Using full information from each sensor rather than gradiometric pairs, we suppress crosstalk between individual phases and external magnetic ...

Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) in a quasi-meridional power transmission line on the Kola Peninsula are analyzed during the intervals of Pc5/Pi3 (frequency range from 1.5 to 5 mHz) pulsations recorded at the IMAGE magnetometer network.

Relation between substorm characteristics and rapid temporal variations of the ground magnetic field [PDF]
Auroral substorms are one of the major causes of large geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) in technological systems. This study deals with different phases of the auroral substorm concerning their severity from the GIC viewpoint. Our database consists

Geomagnetically Induced Currents in the Irish Power Network during Geomagnetic Storms
Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are a well-known terrestrial space weather hazard. They occur in power transmission networks and are known to have adverse effects in both high and mid-latitude countries.

Methodology for simulation of geomagnetically induced currents in power systems
To assess the geomagnetic hazard to power systems it is useful to be able to simulate the geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) that are produced during major geomagnetic disturbances.
