AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies cannot effectively monitor the air gap between conductors and ground wires at the lightning strike point and the voltage values of insulator strings on adjacent towers, resulting in a high probability of line tripping due to lightning strike faults. Furthermore, the installation of online monitoring devices affects the economic efficiency of the power grid.
Electromagnetic transient simulation software was used to establish models of overhead lines, towers, power sources, and lightning currents. By calculating the lightning current injected into the ground wire, the overvoltage of the air gap between the conductor and ground wire and the insulator string after a lightning strike was simulated, providing a design reference.
This provides a basis for selecting air gaps between conductors and ground wires and designing insulation coordination for overhead lines where lightning currents enter, thereby reducing the probability of line tripping due to lightning faults and improving the accuracy of line design assessment.

Description
Technical Field

Specifically, it is an electromagnetic transient modeling and calculation method for the overvoltage of air gap and conductor insulator string in a lightning backflashover line. Background Technology
[0002] High-voltage transmission lines are developing towards higher voltage levels and larger transmission capacities. Overhead lines are susceptible to extreme weather conditions during operation, including frequent lightning strikes that cause lightning current to enter the lines. This is especially true in areas with frequent lightning strikes, long spans, and long spans of overhead lines, where the probability of line tripping due to lightning faults is significant.
[0003] Because lightning strikes occur on the order of microseconds, existing online monitoring devices cannot continuously monitor voltage information at the lightning strike point. Furthermore, the large-scale installation of on-site online monitoring devices would also reduce the economic efficiency of power grid operation. Currently, the characteristics of overvoltage in the air gap between conductors and ground wires caused by lightning current backflashover at the center of the ground wire span, as well as the overvoltage characteristics of the insulators on the upper conductors, are unclear. It is impossible to obtain the instantaneous voltage values of the air gap between conductors and ground wires at the lightning strike point, and the voltage values of the insulator strings on adjacent towers, at the moment of the lightning strike on the overhead line.
