| Summary: | Lightning is a major problem in a transmission line system. Lightning which
occurs around the world will give a huge effect on electrical transmission system and
also on distribution system division. Lightning-strike commonly generated in two
different ways. One of the ways is direct strike to a wire shield (tower top) and
another way is shielding failure. A direct-strike to the wire shield generates back
flashover as a result of voltage on insulator string magnitude is equal or exceeds the
critical flashover voltage (CFO). Therefore, the insulation of surge arrester on
transmission line is the way to reducing and finally solving the back flashover
problem.
This study modelled a 132kV overhead transmission line for back flashover
pattern by using ATP/EMTP software before and after implement the Haddad Surge
Arrester Model. This study also analyzed and compares the performance of Haddad
Surge Arrester Model with ABB Surge Arrester when four different magnitude
lightning strike current is injected. From this study, it show that the Haddad Surge
Arrester Model has archived the target to protect the transmission line system. |
