Abstract:-The voltage waveform on the insulator by a direct lightning stroke is a short-tail lightning impulse. Experimental study and analysis of insulator breakdown characteristics under short-tail lightning impulses are given in this paper with the contrast of standard lightning impulse. The impacts of crossarm and transmission lines are also considered. The experimental results indicate that the insulator 50% breakdown voltage under short-tail impulse is significantly higher than that of standard wave with both pos… Show more
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.
