Abstract
This paper compares the performance of lightning shielding analysis methods using the seven striking distance formulae in substation. For comparison, we evaluate the number of expected strikes and exposed area using WinIGS Software. Seven striking distance formulae are compared using the electrogeometric model analysis and the rolling sphere method. Based on the electrogeometric model analysis, the risk of shielding failure in either the whole substation or parts of it is determined. According to the simulation results, one can justify whether the substation satisfies the criterion of shielding design. In particular, according to the rolling sphere method, the exposed areas in substation determine the location of the additional shielding poles or shield wires. Therefore, the installation of the additional shielding poles and shield wires in substation was accepted by shield design at the phase conductors exposed in the larger area.
