The wave propagation velocity is taken that oI the light C3x10 m/s or 3x10 Km /s.
According to the above calculations the tower top has a characteristic impedance ZT1214.04 O
which mean that the tower top structure has linear resistance according to the (1.3) Iormula and

The tower model is divided into sections according to her structure, in which except wave
impedance are placed the RL sections representing the overvoltage traveling wave attenuation.
Let`s calculate the inductances in each tower section which is related to the time it takes to the
traveling wave to cross the total tower height. At the beginning we Iind the traveling time x and

3. Simulations of the line insulation applying different lighting strokes on the line.
Fig. 6 Double circuit overhead line modeled in ATP software
AIter the whole system (lines, generators, insulation and other elements) had been
modeled in ATP we start making simulations on this system.
First we apply a current of 1kA in order to simulate a lighting stroke in the earth wire of the
first tower. In our insulation model that we have created we have put a minimal Ilashover
voltage oI 520kV so in order to happen this Ilashover the voltage applied in the phase insulator
must be more than 520kV, and Irom the graphics (Eig. 7) oI the voltage applied on the line
insulators, created by the ATP soItware we see that the Ilashover did not happened because the
conditioned implemented in the Ilash model was not IulIilled.

As was predicted beIore Irom the initial conditions the Ilashover happens in the insulators oI the
B phase (Eig. 9) oI the Iirst circuit with a Ilashover current oI 2140A (Eig. 10).
Aow let us apply a current impulse of kA and see the behavior of the elements on the
circuit. In the line insulators we will have the following voltages and currents:

Watching the voltages and the currents on the line insulators we notice that the Ilashover has
happened on all the insulators oI the Iirst circuit oI the line (Eig. 11 and Eig. 12).
By monitoring the surge arrester in Iront oI the transIormers we see that also the surge arrester oI
the A phases has Ilashed with a discharging current oI 14kA. (Eig.13)

We also look at the overvoltage traveling wave (Eig. 14) where we see the decrease in amplitude
oI the overvoltage wave approaching to the substation gantry.
We see that in the A phase where the current impulse is applied the voltage value is 2.7MV and
in the third tower beIore the gantry this overvoltage amplitude has decreased to 1.15MV.
While the B phase has an amplitude oI 600kV only, this explains why has Ilashed only the A
phase oI the surge arrester in Iront oI the transIormer.

We are making a summary table of the results from the simulations made above and the
results from the graphics of the ATP software:
CONCLUSIONS:
1- Eor small currents oI lighting strokes applied in the earth wire because oI the initial
conditions happens Iirst the Ilashover oI the insulators oI the B phase.
2- The surge arresters installed in Iront oI the transIormers start working Ior lighting strokes
oI currents near 60kA
3- The minimal Value oI the current oI the lighting stroke Ior which the insulators Ilashover
happens is 15kA
