Comparative Study on Substation Shielding Due to Direct Lightning Strokes

Abstract: Malaysia is one of the many countries that experience high lightning related activities. In fact, according to Malaysian Meteorological Department the Ground Flash Density (GFD) in Malaysia, it is rated at the fifth place in the ten most lightning cities of the world, with a high keraunic level, which is 240 thunderstorm days per year, and in other words, a Ground Flash Density (GFD) of 48.3 flashes per square kilometer per year. In the power systems, high keraunic level would contribute to high possibility of… Show more

“…Direct lightning stroke to the transmission lines and high-voltage substations, as two vital components of power systems, are the main causes of interruptions in power delivery [1][2][3]. Therefore, considering shielding system against direct lightning strokes is a key factor in designing these two important parts of the power systems.…”

“…Each of the aforementioned methods for shielding a substation has its own advantages and disadvantages. However, the application of shielding wires is much more recommended due to its wide range of protection area [9].…”

“…It is clear that class I requires the highest level of protection, so the radius of the sphere is defined as the smallest (equal to 20 m). Examples of the application of this approach are presented in [6][7][8][9][10][11]. It is noted that the calculated zones differ from the zones determined by the protective angle method.…”
