Abstract :
The results of an experimental investigation of the lightning performance of selected electrode configurations as well as 115 kV and 230 kV substation structures are presented. The evaluation of the lightning performance of the air clearances for structures used in HV substations was based on the measured critical flashover voltage (CFO) values for standard 1.2/50 μs lightning impulses with both positive and negative polarities. The measurements of CFO voltages were performed in the Mississippi State University High Voltage Laboratory. The method used for estimating the air clearance in HV substations is discussed. The results obtained enable the designer to optimize air clearances for a specific application
