Abstract:
Using double-circuit transmission line is the developing tide for main 500 kV configuration to reduce line holding ground, so analyzing it's lightning protection performance is important to extend double-circuit transmission line in ultra high voltage network. The lightning protection performance of 500 kV double-circuit transmission line is studied with EMTP and EGM. The statistical method is applied to analyzing the lightning protection performance of back stroke by considering the randomness of working voltage's phase when lightning stroked the top tower. The result is that the line lightning protection level is different when the working voltage of conductor is different. It also improved the EGM by considering the effect of wind speed when analyzing the lightning protection performance of shielding failure. Furthermore, the results are given that wind speed has effects on the protection angle and the rate of shielding failure by using the program to calculate it.
