Abstract
Awareness of fast transient events in the electrical power environment has increased with the release of related test standards (ANSI C37.90.1 and IEC 801-4) and with increased usage of solid state circuits in utility equipment. Reliable measurement of the fast transient test waveforms and repeatable performance of test setups are persistent problems for equipment manufacturers and users. The construction, characterization, and usage of two high voltage test dividers for measurement of fast transient test waveforms are described. Measurements on a C37.90.1 (SWC) test generator are presented along with tutorial background. Proposals for changes to the ANSI C37.90.1 specification are included.<>
