Lightning protection is an issue for temporary overhead cables installed on overhead transmission lines. Existing line surge arresters for overhead transmission line are not expected to provide sufficient lightning protection performance due to the air-gap discharge delay. Accordingly, a gapless arrester has been developed to protect temporary overhead cables. This paper reports on the results of development tests and experimental constructions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
