Dust, acids, salts, and other pollutants in the atmosphere settle on insulators and reduce their insulating properties. Insulator pollution may pro· duce short-circuits during storms or under momentary overvoltage conditions. Service interruption and the necessity to clean insula_tors periodically is therefore a constant concern, especially where pollution exists.

Transmission-line towers are always solidly con· nected to ground. Great care is taken to ensure that the ground resistance is low. In effect, when lightning hits a line, it creates a sudden voltage rise across the insulators as the lightning current discharges to ground. Such a voltage rise may produce a flashover across the insulators and a conse· quent line outage, as shown by the following example.

I!
A 3-phase 69 kV transmission line with a 81 L of 350 kV is supported on steel towers and protected by a circuit-breaker. The ground resistance at each tower is 20 n whereas the neutral of the transmission line is solidly grounded at the
I I
transformer just ahead of the circuit-breaker. During an electrical. storm, one of the towers is hit by a lightning stroke of 20 kA.
I J
a. Calculate the voltage across each insulator string under normal conditions;
I I I
b. Describe the sequence of events during and after the lightning stroke.
ji . I '
Solution: a . Under normal condit ions, the line-to-neutral
voltage is 69 kV / 1.73 = 40 kV and the current flowing in the tower ground resistance is zero. The steel tower is therefore at the same potent ial as the so lid ground. It follows that the voltage across each insulator string (line to tower) is 40 kV (RMS).
b. When lightning strikes the tower, the voltage across the ground resistance suddenly leaps to 20 kA X 20 n = 400 kV. The voltage between the tower and solid ground is therefore 400 kV, and so the potential difference across all three insulator strings jumps to the same value. Because this impulse exceeds the insulator 81 L of 350 kV, a flashover immediately occurs across the insulators, short-circuiting all three lines to the steel cross-arm. The resulting 3-phase short initiated by the lightning stroke will continue

to be fed and sustained by a heavy followthrough current from the 3-phase source. Th is short-circuit current fsc. will trip the circu it breaker, producing a line outage. In view of the many customers affected by such
a load interruption, we try to limit the number of outages by ensuring a low resistance between the towers and ground. In the preceding example, if the tower resistance had been 10 n instead of 20 n, the impulse voltage across the insulators would have risen to 200 kV and no flashover would have occured.
Note that lightning currents of 20 kA are quite frequent, and they last for only a few microseconds

A separatio~ of variables can be performed by differentiating the above equations and substituting to obtain
d 2V( ) . _ _..;._x~ = zyV(x) dx 2
d2J(x) = zyl(x) dx 2
Let us introduce the propag~tion constant v defined as
ll = [zy where the series impedance per-unit length is
z=R+jwL
and the shunt admittance per-unit length is
y=G+jwC
R and L are series resistance and inductance per unit length, and G and C are shunt conductance and capacitance to neutral per unit length.
~re can now write the differential Eqs.

Example
Find the exact ABCD parameters for a 235.92-mile long, 735-kV, bundle-conductor line with four subconductors per phase with subconductor resistance of 0.1004 ohms per mile. Assume that the series inductive reactance per phase is 0.5541 ohms per mile and shunt capacitive susceptance of 7.4722 X 10-6 siemens per mile to neutral. Neglect shunt conductance.
Solution
The resistance per phase is
r = 0·1~04 = 0.0251 ohmsjmile
Thus the series impedance in ohms per mile is
z = 0.0251 + j0.5541 ohmsjmile
The shunt admittance is
y = j7 .4722 X 10-6 siemensjmile
For the line length,
Z = zl = (0.0251 + j0.5541)(235.92) = 130.86/87.41 o
Y= yl= j(7.4722 X 10-6 ){235.92) = 1.7628 X 10-3j90°
\\7e calculate 8 as
Thus,

We change 82 to degrees. Therefore,
