Abstract

Lightning induced currents and voltages in transmission lines consist of electromagnetic and electrostatic components. The electrostatic one is much less than electromagnetic component in regions where soils have a high electrical conductivity. In this report we present mathematical models of the electrostatic component of lightning induced current and voltages in transmissions lines in a permafrost region. We consider the case when a lightning discharges between two thunderclouds over the transmission line. Numerical simulations are provided for a lot of geometrical cases and show that the values of the electrostatic component is comparable to electromagnetic one in a permafrost region.
