Abstract: The lightning of substation will affect the insulation safety of electrical equipment, and the strong EMI caused by the discharge process may damage the sensitive devices of the secondary equipment. A model is established for the lightning overcurrent of substation by using EMTP/ATP software. In the simulation, the amplitude of overcurrent and overvoltage of each equipment are obtained. Then, by taking the GIS partial discharge sensor as an example, the EMI influence on the sensors during lightning is simulated and analyzed by using MagNet software. The result shows that the overcurrent caused by lightning can produce a maximum induced voltage of 323V in serious cases and may seriously damage the sensors.

Key words: substation, lightning overcurrent, sensor, EMTP, MagNet
