Abstract :
The considerable difference between the predicted flashover rate as calculated by the AIEE method and the actual flashover rate on the OVEC system over a 2-year period has forced a re-evaluation of present procedures for estimating lightning flashovers on transmission lines. Data and preliminary conclusions are set forth based on the first year of the field investigation.
