Computation of transient electromagnetic fields due to switching in high voltage substations [PDF]
Switching operations of circuit breakers and disconnect switches radiate transient electromagnetic fields within high-voltage substations. The generated fields may interfere and disrupt normal operations of electronic equipment.
