The need to improve the reliability and robustness of power systems
and smart grids makes protection of sensitive equipment and power
transmission and distribution lines against lightning-related
effects a primary concern. Renewable electricity generation
capacity has been increasing all over the world, and lightning can
cause failures either by hitting the turbines or panels directly or
inducing transients on the control systems that lead to equipment
failure, malfunction or degradation. This two-volume set assesses
how global lightning may respond to global climate change, provides
thorough coverage of the lightning phenomenon and its interaction
with various objects, and covers methods for the effective
protection of structures and systems. It is a valuable reference
for researchers in the fields of lightning and power systems, for
transmission and distribution line engineers and designers, and is
a useful text for related advanced courses. Volume 1 covers
fundamentals and modelling of lightning interaction with power
systems. This Volume 2 addresses various applications including the
application of the Monte Carlo method to lightning protection and
insulation coordination practices; lightning interaction with power
substations; lightning interaction with power transmission lines;
lightning interaction with medium-voltage overhead power
distribution systems; lightning interaction with low-voltage
overhead power distribution networks; lightning protection of
structures and electrical systems inside of buildings; lightning
protection of smart grids; lightning protection of wind power
systems; lightning protection of photovoltaic systems; measurement
of lightning currents and voltages; application of the FDTD method
to lightning studies; and software tools for lightning performance
assessment.
