Abstract
Evaluation of lightning surge waveforms that actually enter into substations is important when investigating the test voltage of electric power equipment. The standard lightning impulse waveform (1.2/50μs) is used for factory tests. However, the actual lightning surge waveforms in actual substations are complex waveforms in which various different oscillations are superimposed. Investigation of insulation characteristics of equipment against the complex waveforms and the standard one has significant importance. We analyzed these waveforms entering actual substations with respect to the insulation characteristics of gas insulated switchigear (GIS). From the results, we defined four types of non-standard lightning impulse waveforms. Then non-standard lightning impulse voltage is generated by an equipment circuit which is consisted of an impulse generator (IG), R, L and C is analyzed with EMTP. Voltage time characteristics were evaluated from the obtained impulse voltages.
