چکیده

Lightning has been one of the important problems for insulation design of power systems and it is still the main cause of outages of transmission and distribution lines. The lightning return-stroke current and the charge delivered by the stroke are the most important parameters to assess the severity of lightning strokes to power lines and apparatus. In order to calculate lightning surge analysis in power systems, appropriate models and parameters describing the components of systems should be required. It is also necessary to clarify how much those models would influence results of simulation. In other words, it is important to confirm how much probability of back flashover accidents would occur in changing grounding model or its input parameters. In this paper we compare some models for components in transmission tower and will show the influence to the back flashover results, especially focusing on grounding impedance model.

Analysis and Suppression of Back-Flow Lightning Surges in Onshore Wind Farms

The rapid expansion of wind power generation has brought problems involving lightning strikes to the fore. Many such incidents have damaged not only the wind turbine that was actually struck, but also other turbines that were not. The phenomenon of surge invasion to the distribution line is categorized as “back-flow surge”. It has been reported that this back-flow surge sometimes burns out surg...
