The invention discloses a rapid optimal configuration method for
lightning arresters, and belongs to the technical field of
lightning arrester installation, and the method comprises the steps: additionally arranging the
lightning arresters at the two ends of a
power transmission line based on a pre-established
lightning overvoltage simulation model, simulating the working condition of a lightning counterattack
tower, and obtaining an
overvoltage maximum value distribution curve along the line; dividing the
power transmission line into three sections based on the distribution curve of the maximum value of the
overvoltage along the line, and obtaining the
distribution rule of the maximum value of the average
overvoltage of the segmented line; according to the
distribution rule of the average overvoltage maximum value of the segmented line, the installation position of the
lightning arrester is adjusted; when the installation position of the
lightning arrester is adjusted, the optimal installation position of the
lightning arrester is rapidly determined by taking the minimum average
lightning overvoltage of the line as an optimization target based on a PSCAD automatic
library in combination with an automatic optimization
algorithm; according to the invention, rapid optimal configuration of the lightning arrester is realized, and the
lightning overvoltage suppression effect is improved.
