Abstract

This paper studies different parameters affecting a lightning stroke to a horizontal conductor. An electromagnetic model has been constructed to consider the influences of different lightning and horizontal conductor parameters and ambient conditions on the lateral striking distance. The results show that lightning leader parameters, horizontal conductor voltage, horizontal conductor height, and ground slope have a series effect on the lateral striking distance. Based on the results, recommendations are made to decrease the lightning stroke to the horizontal conductor.
