Lightning is one of a main causes of sudden outages in the power systems. When a lightning strikes the ground wires or directly to transmission tower, a backflashover may occur. It consists of an electric arc from the tower ...

This article shows an analysis of the electrical parameters of a three-phase transmission line section using a relatively new design for steel towers characterized by 280 meters high. These main features, the height of the ...

Lightning is one of the main causes of outages due to backflashover mechanism in power systems. In this context, the tower-footing impedance presents a key role in the overvoltages caused by this phenomenon. Tower-footing ...

This article shows an analysis of the longitudinal electric parameters of a three-phase transmission line/section using a 280-meter high steel tower. This characteristic, the height of the line conductors and distance ...

The electrical characteristics of a new 280-m-tall transmission line are analyzed. The geometrical distance of the phases, wires height and physical structure of the line are intrinsic associated with its electrical ...

This article analyzes the electrical parameters of a 3-phase transmission line using a 280-m-high steel tower that has been proposed for the Amazon transmission system in Brazil. The height of the line conductors and the ...
