Abstract
Ferroresonance is an important factor affecting the security and stability operation of Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) substation. The nonlinearity of excitation characteristic of inductance elements with iron cores is the fundamental cause for exciting ferroresonance. A 500kV GIS substation is taken into account in this paper, a variety of operating conditions which may excite ferroresonance during the commissioning process are analyzed by a numerical simulation method. The comparison with actual commissioning results shows that ferroresonance will be excited by opening circuit breakers to switch off no-load buses during the commissioning process. For single-phase electromagnetic potential transformer (PT), ferroresonance can be effectively suppressed by connecting damping resistance in parallel with residual winding temporarily.
