Abstract
In order to study the strong electromagnetic pulse effect of critically vulnerable equipment in power systems and evaluate the survivability under high-altitude electromagnetic pulses, it is necessary to study the characteristics of the transient response of metal oxide arresters to the high-altitude electromagnetic pulse by experiment. In this paper, an experimental platform for high-altitude electromagnetic pulse conduction current injection for a typical 10 kV metal oxide arrester was set up, and the key parameters such as peak value of overshoot voltage, peak value of residual voltage, action voltage and response time were obtained by the experiment. The results show that: the action voltage of this type of metal oxide arrester is 3.53 times higher than that of its rated voltage; the peak value of overshoot voltage is 2.19 times that of the peak value of residual voltage under lightning impulse current; the peak value of residual voltage is 1.57 times that under lightning impulse; and the response time varies little with the electromagnetic pulse conduction current amplitude, averaging 46.86 nanoseconds under a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse conduction environment.
