Abstract :
An analysis of the surges recorded during 1927 on a 75-mi. 110-kv. double-circuit transmission line of the New England Power System is presented in this paper. The surges are classified according to cause of surge-voltage damping, extent, etc. General conclusions are drawn regarding the nature of surges and protection afforded by ground wires.
