Abstract :
We present CiLIV (Circuit for Lightning Induced Voltage), a new tool for lightning induced voltage calculations. The tool can be integrated into power systems simulators, and is based on the theory proposed by Andreotti et al. (2001, 2009, 2013). The accuracy, stability and efficiency of the new tool has been demonstrated by comparison with other solutions/codes found in the literature and with experimental data.
