Investigation of lightning and commutation overvoltages in overhead lines.

open access: yes
This master's thesis investigates overvoltage processes caused by lightning discharges and switching operations in 110 kV overhead power transmission lines. Different types of overvoltages, their impact on the power grid, and potential protection devices

Calculation of lightning-induced voltages on an overhead line taking into account the presence of nearby buildings

open access: yes, 2011
For the case of urban overhead lines, the presence of nearby buildings is expected to affect the overvoltages induced by nearby lightning return strokes. This effect until now has been seldom taken into account in the literature on the subject. The paper

Considerations about the lightning protection system of mains independent renewable energy hybrid-systems - practical experiences

open access: yes, 2005
In the paper a lightning protection design concept for renewable energy hybrid-systems without power mains connection is described. Based on a risk analysis protection measures against direct strikes and overvoltages are shown in an overview.

Assessment of the lightning transient coupling to control cables interconnecting structures in large industrial facilities and power plants

open access: yes, 2005
Large industrial facilities and power plants often require a huge number fo information and control cables between the differnet structures. These I&C-cables can be routed in reinforced concrete cable ducts or in isolated buried cable runs.

Lightning-induced overvoltages transferred from medium-voltage to low-voltage networks

open access: yes
Simulation results relevant to realistic configurations of medium-voltage (MV) and low-voltage (LV) distribution systems provide useful information to evaluate both the expected level of power quality problems on LV networks due to lightning and the ...

Lightning simulation of a combined overhead line/cable connected GIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The paper concerns different investigations of lightning simulation of a combined 170 kV overhead line/cable connected GIS. This is interesting due to the increasing amount of underground cables and GIS in the Danish transmission system.

Lightning-induced overvoltages in medium voltage distribution systems and customer experienced voltage spikes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In Finland, distribution transformers are frequently subjected to lightning strokes for which they are continuously protected by spark-gaps. So, the breakdown probability of medium voltage (MV) spark-gaps is modeled using the Gaussian distribution ...

Lightning Performance on Transmission Line Towers

open access: yes
A method of transmission tower models construction for atmospheric overvoltages performance studies is presented. The overvoltage waves produce electric fields along the tower, the shielding wire and along the conductor. EMTP program has been selected as

Lightning protection design of a renewable energy hybrid-system without power mains connection

open access: yes, 2005
In the year 2000 a direct lightning strike to the hybridsystem without power mains connection VATALI on the Greek island Crete results in the destruction and damage of some mechanical and electrical components.
