Abstract
Transient enclosure voltage (TEV) induces a relative potential difference between grounding conductors and then couples to secondary cables and may cause malfunction and even damage to secondary equipment. This study investigates the coupling mechanism of TEV to secondary cables from an experimental point of view and presents a cable model suitable for calculation. Experiments are carried out on test platforms established in a laboratory. The experimental results indicate that the magnitudes of port voltages are roughly 1.5‰ of TEV magnitudes, and the waveform of the start port voltage has the same profile but in antiphase with that of the end port voltage. Moreover, only common-mode voltage with no differential-mode voltage exists for the twin core cable. Based on these results, an equivalent circuit for a secondary cable is proposed. This circuit can generate similar waveforms as those measured in the experiment. The experimental and theoretical results presented in this paper should prove helpful for evaluating the interference severity of secondary cables resulting from TEV for the electromagnetic protection of secondary ports.
