Abstract
With the object of determining the effectiveness of the newer methods of protecting distribution transformers from lightning, a survey of operating data obtained during 1934 by 38 electric power companies has been made by the transmission and distribution committee of the Edison Electric Institute. The results of this survey are presented herewith. In general, interconnection of the lightning arrester ground with the secondary neutral has been found superior to other methods of protection.
