Overvoltages in Power System

Data is displayed for academic year: 2023./2024.

Course Description

Temporary overvoltages due to earth-faults, load shedding and ferroresonance. Slow front overvoltages due to switching of transmission lines, fault initiation and fault clearing. Switching off small capacitive and inductive currents. Energization of unloaded transformers and reactors. The initiation, propagation and consequences of lightning overvoltages. Very fast overvoltages in gas insulated substations. Overvoltage protection in high voltage substation and low voltage installation. Application of the lightning location system in the world and in Croatia.
