INDUCED VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS: OVERVIEW AND EVALUATION OF SIMULATION MODELS AND METHODOLOGIES

Description:
In this paper induced voltages and currents caused by underground cables are calculated in cable sheaths and nearby metallic pipelines. The performance of several simulation methods and models are inv... see moreestigated in steady-state, considering also different implementations in ATP-EMTP, EMTP-RV and PSCAD/EMTDC. The analysis is extended in the simulation of transient overvoltages in cable systems, evaluating the accuracy of two widely used simulation models. The influence of different parameters is investigated, among them specifically the earth properties. Results reveal that implementing accurate earth representations, earth conduction effects have a significant impact on induced voltages at the power frequency, while for high frequency phenomena the influence is minor.

Selection of MV/LV Transformers to be Protected by Surge Arresters against Indirect Lightning Overvoltages

Description:
The papers addresses the problem of locating surge protective devices in a medium voltage distribution network by means of an accurate computer model for the calculation of lightning induced overvolta... see moreges and a Monte Carlo statistical procedure. The indirect lightning performance of small network cells of different configuration are evaluated and used as a benchmark for the validation of the surge arrester locations provided by a genetic algorithm procedure. The obtained results appear useful for the lightning protection design of networks
with complex topology.

On the Mitigation Effect of Surge Arresters on the Lightning Performance of Overhead Distribution Lines

Description:
For the accurate statistical assessment of the lightning performance of distribution lines one needs to
take into account the presence of protection devices such as surge arresters and shielding ... see morewire/neutral
groundings. Indeed, the presence of those devices can significantly modify the indirect lightning
response of the overhead line and, therefore, the relevant lightning performance.
In particular, this paper aims at investigating the impact of the presence of surge arresters on the
indirect lightning performance of overhead distribution lines having realistic configuration.
Specifically, reference is made to typical Italian distribution lines. The investigation is performed with
the help of a statistical procedure developed by the authors – based on the Monte Carlo method and of
the use of an accurate modelling/calculation tool for the induced surges – that has been recently
compared with one proposed in the IEEE 1410 Std for the same purpose, and shown to be more
complete and suitable for the problem of interest. The paper also aims at investigating the influence of
the presence of surge arresters on the indirect lightning surges transferred through power transformers.
Such an additional investigation is performed by means of a suitable high-frequency power
transformer mode integrated with the lightning-induced computation tool.

AN ADVANCED INTERFACE BETWEEN THE LIOV CODE AND THE EMTP-RV

Description:
Accurate evaluation of the response of overhead distribution lines to lightning electromagnetic pulse (LEMP) represents an important aspects in insulation coordination of distribution network. The imp... see morerovements of the accuracy of such an analysis call for the extension of the field-to-transmission line coupling models from single straight lines to multi-conductor/branched and complex systems. This paper deals with the description of a new interface between the LIOV (Lightning Induced OverVoltage) code and the EMTP-RV software. In particular, the paper illustrates the treatment of the boundary conditions – on which the link with the Augmented Nodal Analysis Technique adopted by the EMTP-RV is based – together with the main aspects related to the numerical integration of the Agrawal and al. LEMP-to-transmission line coupling model adopted in the LIOV code.
The proposed interface aims at improving the simulation capabilities of the previous version of the LIOV-EMTP, namely this new version completely removes the disadvantage of the time-delay associated to the use of a short Bergeron’s line needed to link the LIOV code with the EMTP. Additionally, this new version of the LIOV-EMTP code takes advantages of the Augmented Nodal Analysis Technique implementation in EMTP-RV. Comparison with experimental results is also presented in order to verify the accuracy of the proposed interface.
