Simulation study on line surge arrester and placement of surge arrester / Nur Amalina Azhari

Lightning is a very impressive phenomenon that occurs in nature. The amount of energy contained in a lightning stroke is very high and it can be extremely destructive. Electric distribution networks are particularly vulnerable to lightning strokes. A single stroke to a distribution line can be suffi...
