  • Abstract
    MAGNIFICATION of transient voltages in one part of an electric power system may occur in another part of that system, possibly at a different voltage level. Experiences such as these have resulted in system flashovers or equipment damage. The degree of voltage magnification does not necessarily involve circuit-breaker restriking or prestriking, although these factors may increase the severity of the disturbance.
