This paper deals with n rise in electric potential of telecommunication line for electric power system by lightning surges. When $1.2/50{\mu}s$ and $8/20{\mu}s$ impulse voltage and current were applied on telecommunication cable, the voltage waveforms at the end terminal and equipment were measured. The telecommunication lines, which consist of 60 conductors and 3.5km in length, have some surge protectors such as preposition lightning arrester and TVSS. In each case, the rise in electric potential was measured for differential mode and common mode, respectively. Also, the rise in ground potential and the induced voltages were measured and analyzed. As a result, a significant rise in ground potential was observed for lightning surge. It can cause failure or malfunction of telecommunication systems.

In this paper, in order to obtain statistical informations on lightning electromagnetic waveforms, electric field waveforms produced by lightning return strokes were measured and analyzed. The electric field measuring system consists of hemisphere antenna 30[cm] in diameter, integrator and data acquisition. system. The frequency bandwidth of the measuring system is 200[Hz] to 1.56[MHz], and the sensitivity is 0.96[mV/V/m]. The mean value of front time of electric field waveforms produced by positive lightning return strokes is 5.87[${\mu}s$], and that of negative is 4.12[${\mu}s$]. The mean values of zero-crossing time for positive or negative electric field waveforms are 35.00 and 26.61[${\mu}s$], respectively. The mean value of percentage dip-depth for positive electric field waveforms is 33.68[%], and that for negative is 28.36[%].

In this paper, measurement and analysis of ELF electric and magnetic fields due to a transmission line have been carried out and the power frequency field strength measuring system is designed. In order to evaluate electric and magnetic fields associated with 60 Hz electric power transmission and distribution lines, the actual survey near a transmission tower has been made and analyzed. It may be inferred from these results that the maximum electric and magnetic fields strength in the vicinity of a line tower do not exceed 3.5[kV/m] and 20[${\mu}T$]. The results of the field measurements agree with limits and guidelines recommended by various authorized international institutes.

In recent years, the electromagnetic environments are varied with the increase of power consumption and the spread of household electric appliances. Most of the interests to date have concentrated in the area of human health effects associated with exposure to power frequency electric and magnetic fields, and thus the precise measurement and analysis are required. In this paper, the measurements and analysis of the extremely low frequency(ELF) electric and magnetic fields produced by actual 22.9[kV] distribution lines were performed. The experiments have been carried out by lateral profile, and the theoretical analyses were made by use of FIELDS program for the sate of comparison with the experimental data. Electric and magnetic field intensity were strong under power distribution lines, and were inversely proportional to lateral distance. The profiles of electric and magnetic fields were M and ∩ shapes, respectively, and the measured data were good in agreement with the theoretical results. Both the electric and magnetic field intensity were increased with increasing the measurement height.

This paper describes the characteristics of effective impulse ground impedance of deeply driven ground rods combined with grounding grid or counterpoises with needles. The potential rises of the test ground electrodes were measured as a function of the rise time of applied impulse currents and the effective impulse ground impedances were calculated The impulse ground impedances of deeply driven ground rods strongly depend on the rise time of impulse currents and significantly reduced by the connection of grounding grids in parallel.

This paper describes a proposed very fast transient overvoltages(VFTO) measurement system suited for established gas insulated switchgear(GIS). The detecting system consists of a shield electrode connected to a buffer amplifier, and the transmission of the detected signal to an oscilloscope is made through an optical fiber. The bandwidth of the measurement system is 5 Hz to 30MHz. When determining the voltage dividing ratio by use of the commercial frequency voltage, the error is less than 0.5 %. Also, the data were obtained by the electric field probe and the high voltage probe, and their deviation for voltage dividing ratio were less than 1 %.

This paper describes the measurement system of the magnetic field waveforms generated by lightning return strokes. The frequency bandwidth of magnetic field measurement system is from 270[Hz] to about 2.3 [MHz]. As the application experiment, the magnetic field generated by simple impulse and oscillating impulse currents, which are measured by a current transformer (Tek. AM503), is observed by the trial magnetic field measurement system. The obtained results are agreement with each other. A typical magnetic field waveform associated with lightning return strokes was recorded and presented.

The fall-of-potential method is commonly used in measuring the ground resistance of large-scaled grounding system and the current and potential auxiliary electrodes are horizontally arranged. Because the distances between the ground grid to be tested and auxiliary electrodes are limited in downtown areas, it is very difficult to measure accurately the ground resistance of large-scaled grounding system. In this paper, the fall-of-potential method of measuring the ground resistance with the vertically-placed current and potential auxiliary electrodes was examined and discussed. The validity and good accuracy of the proposed method of measuring the ground resistance were confirmed through various simulations and actual tests carried out in uniform and two-layer soil structures.

In these days, large structures are constructed and bonded with ground grid Because the distances between mesh and auxiliary electrodes are not enough in downtown areas, it is very difficult to measure the ground resistance of large scale grounding electrode systems. Actually the auxiliary electrodes for test are installed in grounding grid. This paper present the experimental results of ground resistance and impedance according to the location of auxiliary electrode. As a result, we get much lower resistances and impedances than real values the auxiliary electrodes are placed in the ground grid. In case that the auxiliary electrodes are located in the ground grid the resistances are very low and reactance only is inductive component.

This paper deals with the transient ground impedance of small-sized needle-rod installed in a test field, Impulse voltage generator was used to inject lightning impulse on a ground electrode and modified fall-of potential method was proposed to measure the high ground potential rise. Transient ground impedance was analysed with impedance curve and I-V curve as respects the resistivity of soil. Soil ionization near the ground electrode is activated in high resistivity soil and have an effect on the reduction of transient ground impedance significantly.
