SWITCHING SURGE PROGRAM

This program was originally written in Fortran in 1989 by David R. Brown and the American Public Power Association.

The following sources provided data on the electrical properties of different conductors:

  • AL/ACSR data: Aluminum Electrical Conductor Handbook, 1982.
  • Alumoweld data: Copperweld Steel Company, Southern Division, Fayetteville, TN.
  • Steel data: Mechanical Data from ASTM Standards, ASTM Standard A475.
  • CU data: Westinghouse T&D Reference, 1964, ABB Power Systems Inc.

IF SHIELDS ARE SEGMENTED (INSULATED) TO PREVENT 60 HZ SHIELD WIRE CURRENTS, SHIELD WIRE CURRENTS SHOULD BE SET TO ZERO.

THE SWITCHING SURGE PROGRAM SIMULATES LINE RECLOSING ASSUMING TRAPPED CHARGE ON THE LINE. THE SYSTEM TO WHICH THE LINE WILL BE CONNECTED IS MODELLED ON THE BASIS OF THE SYSTEM THREE-PHASE FAULT CURRENT.

Omit insertion resistance and resistor insertion time if you chose to omit resistors
