Abstract :
A complete model of a typical h.v.d.c. converter station suitable for fast transient studies is used to investigate the lightning-surge distribution within the convertor plant. The model is also used to assess the effect of the surge capacitor on the incident wave and the influence of the d.c.-reactor size and the lightning-surge characteristics on the surge transfer to the convertor side.
