A Review of Research Progress in Very Fast Transient Overvoltage (VFTO) Suppression Technology
The very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) is characterized by steep wavefronts, high amplitude, and wide spectrum. These characteristics can lead to partial discharges or insulation breakdowns in potted insulators, which can lead to localized ...

Influence of Switching Conditions on the VETO Magnitudes in a GIS [PDF]
Estimation of very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) has been carried out using EMTP for various switching conditions in a 420 kV gas-insulated substation (GIS). The variation of the VFTO peak along the GIS bus nodes for disconnector and circuit breaker switching operations, as well as the variation of VFTO peak with different magnitudes of trapped ...

A low‐cost and high‐performance self‐trigger method for high‐voltage transient measurement
Abstract Stable triggering of acquisition devices is critical to accurately measure electromagnetic transients, especially for very fast transient overvoltages (VFTOs). A highly stable and low‐cos t self‐trigger method for transient measurement is proposed.

Abstract The collectors of electronic transformers has the problem of electromagnetic incompatibility under the operation of disconnecting switches, which limits their wide application in smart grids. To evaluate the maximum level of disturbance that collectors are able to withstand in the stochastic process of switching operation, this work introduces

In recent years, gas‐insulated switchgear (GIS) substations have become widely used in power systems. Due to their compact structure, extremely high oscillation frequencies are prone to extremely high oscillation transient overvoltages or very fast transient overvoltages (VFTOs) when the isolating switch or circuit breaker is operated.

When a very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) propagates in a high‐voltage bus, the capacitive voltage transformer (CVT) causes considerable interference on its secondary side, which will affect the normal operation of the secondary equipment. In this article, a CVT equivalent calculation circuit model was established, and the disturbance voltage of ...
