The ability of shield wires installed in overhead lines to mitigate lightning-induced
overvoltages has been extensively investigated. Unfortunately, these studies came to …

This paper addresses lightning surges on the transmission systems with a new hybrid
method, using a 1D FDTD model for the transmission line and a PEEC model for the tower …

This paper presents an assessment of lightning protection schemes for overhead lines from
two aspects: protection performance and economic cost. Considering the random nature of …

When concerning the installation and operation costs, it is always desirable to protect an
overhead distribution network with a limited quantity of surge arresters (SAs). This paper …

In addition to insulator flashover, lightning damage of surge arresters (SAs) is also
considered in evaluating the lightning performance of a distribution network. This article …

This paper presented an assessment of lightning energy absorption by dedicated surge
arresters (SA DT), which are provided to protect the distribution transformers on 10kV …

This article analyzes the three-phase lightning-induced voltages (LIVs) waveform on a 1513
m long overhead distribution line 40 m from rocket-triggered lightning, and the …

This article investigates the lightning performance of a 10-kV overhead distribution line
equipped with grounding counterpoise wires under extremely low soil conductivity …

The operation status of the arresters installed in the distribution network significantly affect
the performance of lightning protection and maintenance cost. The damage rate of the surge …

This work investigates voltages on overhead distribution lines produced by direct strokes,
protected by shield wires, placed both above and below phase conductors. An improved …
