Title: Including surge arresters in the lightning performance analysis of 132kV transmission line
Abstract: Line arresters are considered as an effective way to improve the lightning performance of transmission lines, especially in parts of line that suffer from high soil resistivity and lightning ground flash density. This paper presents results of the application of line surge arresters on the 132KV double circuit transmission line in EMTP-RV and all the practical scenarios for installation of surge arresters. The study has shown that a significant level of improvement can be reached by installing arresters at all or only some of the line phases. It can increase the strength of the line to withstand lightning currents up to -292kA. the probability of having this lightning current, is practically zero.
