This review paper, prepared for this second special issue on lightning of the IEEE
Transactions on Electromagnetic Compatibility, summarizes major publications on lightning …

Special attention has been drawn to transients in low-voltage systems in recent years. As the
surge withstand capabilities of low-voltage networks are much lower than those of medium …

An approximate formula is proposed to estimate the peak value of lightning induced
voltages in an infinite line, considering the soil resistivity. The formula is derived from results …

The impact of the frequency dependence of soil resistivity and permittivity on lightning
overvoltages induced on overhead lines over lossy ground is investigated. The Visacro …

The evaluation of the lightning performance of overhead lines requires, mainly for
distribution lines, the calculation of the voltages induced by nearby lightning strokes hitting …

The effect of a shield wire, which is a bare conductor buried above an insulated metallic
cable, on lightning-induced currents on the cable has been studied using the three …

This paper presents a time-domain formula for the calculation of the horizontal electric field
in the vicinity of the lightning channel. The formula is based on the incident azimuthal …

This paper presents an efficient method for the assessment of the indirect lightning
performance of overhead power lines and analyses the influence of some relevant …

In the first part of this paper, the rigorous theory describing the electromagnetic field radiated
by a lightning return stroke over a two‐layered conducting ground was presented and the …

It is essential that the insulation system of the overhead distribution lines should be properly
designed to ensure their immunity against lightning-induced overvoltages (LIOVs) caused …
