Abstract
The calculation of voltages induced by external electromagnetic fields on multiconductor transmission lines (MTLs) has been the subject of several studies. In this paper, discrete equations for MTLs exposed to incident fields are derived based on the time-domain finite-element method and the backward differentiation formula. Based on these equations, a value-delivery table characterizing the MTLs is presented. Combining this table with modified node analysis formulation, it is convenient for analyzing the responses of transmission lines composed of complex termination networks or complex transmission-lines networks. The validity and efficiency of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated using several examples. Finally, a 1-km 35 kV overhead line above an imperfectly conducting ground is studied, and the influences of ground wire and a metal-oxide arrester to the lightning-induced voltage are both discussed.
