Abstract

When designing the large scale of the transmission line, the risk of the lightning strikes is very important to take into consideration. Lightning strikes have been proven to be the major cause of overhead transmission line outage in Malaysia especially for 275kV line and below. Lightning is a major cause of faults on typical transmission lines. The aim of the study of this paper is to measure the voltage level at the particular points in substation to gain the result of the lightning stresses. The Basic Insulation Level (BIL) of transformer is calculated with reference of IEEE Std 1313.2-1999. The simulation results are compared with the suggested BIL. Analytical studies are also performed to compare the calculated results with the results obtained from the simulation.
