Optimized Protection of Pole-Mounted Distribution Transformers against Direct Lightning Strikes

Optimized Protection of Pole-Mounted Distribution Transformers against Direct Lightning Strikes

Direct lightning strikes on overhead phase conductors result in high overvoltage stress on the medium voltage (MV) terminals of pole-mounted transformers, which may cause considerable damage. Therefore, introducing an efficient protection strategy would be a remedy for alleviating such undesirable d...
