Abstract
Distribution transformers in several locations on a New England system have been operating for several months with the primary lightning arrester ground interconnected with the transformer secondary neutral. Experience over the past few months definitely indicates the advantages of this connection in reducing troubles due to lightning, without increasing the hazard to the customers´ wiring. Increased clearances on transformer primary bushings also reduce the number of failures.
