CONTRIBUTION TO THE CALCULATION OF LIGHTNING SURGES INDUCED IN ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION LINES
Abstract
The problem of indirect lightning surges in electric transmission lines is principally due to the mechanism of the lightning discharge itself. The development of the current along the channel determines the value and the form of the fields. A simultaneous comparison between the characteristics of the electric field measured with an open antenna and that obtained from the surge measured at a point of the line near the antenna should be of value. Even knowledge of the magnetic field registered by frame aerials and knowledge of the characteristics of the surges measured on the line at the same time would procure valuable information of the mechanism of the induction of the electro-motive forces of magnetic origin.
