Abstract

The operation data obtained abroad indicates that shielding failure in AC UHV transmission system mostly accounts for the tripping-out accidents introduced by lightning striking the transmission line. Based on the discharge theories of long air gap and randomness theory, a leader progression model of lightning shielding failure is presented in this paper. The simulation results shows the good agreement between this model and the field data.
