High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper investigates the generation mechanism of quasi‐power‐frequency resonant overvoltage triggered by multiple lightning strikes in high‐voltage alternating current (HVAC) systems equipped with shunt reactors. Based on field measurements from a 500 kV AC system, equivalent and simplified circuit models have been established to analyse ...

Attachment of lightning flashes to grounded structures
, 2012 A grounded structure can interact with a lightning flash in two different ways. It can interact with either a downward or an upward lightning flash. The initiation of a downward lightning flash takes place in the cloud, whereas in the case of upward ...

High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To effectively suppress transient overvoltages in HVDC systems, the design and experimental validation of a multi‐module series controllable arrester are presented. The voltage‐limiting performance, series voltage equalisation capability, and robustness under fault conditions in high‐voltage scenarios require further research.

Study on the Power‐Frequency Arc Extinction Characteristics of Semi‐Closed Short‐Gap Device
High Voltage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Multi‐chamber arc‐extinguishing devices have a simple structure and excellent arc‐extinguishing performance; thus, they have attracted considerable attention as lightning protection devices. However, the structural parameters of different models of the aforementioned devices vary, leading to inconsistent protection levels; therefore, the arc ...
