Abstract :
This paper reports on the results of a series of 249 switching tests including 2 fault tests that were made on the American Electric Power (AEP) 330 km (204 miles) Jefferson to Dumont 765-kV line. Steady state and transient period overvoltages are examined and analyzed. Comparisons are made with transient network analyzer (TNA) studies performed prior to the tests. Use of nonlinear resistors to drain the trapped energy after opening the circuit is also discussed.
