This paper deals with the fundamental characteristics of transient and conventional ground impedances associated with soil discharges when the lightning impulse voltage was applied to a small-sized ground rod. The potential rise responses of the test ground rod to impulse currents were observed. The current-voltage (I-V)curves, transient and conventional ground impedance curves were examined.. To analyze the transient behaviors of ground rod attendant upon soil discharges, the impulse responses of ground rod were compared with those of non-inductive resistor. As a consequence, the potential rise and impedance of ground rod were reduced and the currents dispersed into the earth were increased due to soil discharges near the ground rod. Soil discharges are classified into two regimes; ionization and breakdown phenomena. The potential rise and impulse impedance of ground rod are significantly decreased by breakdown processes in soil.

An electric potential rise of the grounding electrode developed by the lightning stroke currents should be calculated for the purpose of effective protection of electrical and electronic equipment. In this paper, the electromagnetic model was applied to calculate the harmonic impedance of grounding electrode. Also the empirical equation related to the permittivity and resistivity of soil was used. The lightning current waveforms, which are expressed by the Heidler's equation, were used in order to calculate accurately transient electric potential rises. The transient voltage was obtained by using the simulated harmonic impedance and the lightning current in frequency domain. Finally, the transient voltages of horizontal grounding electrode(10m) under lightning stroke currents were calculated by IFFT(Inverse Fast Fourier Transform).

정보통신설비의 피뢰설계는 정보통신기기 동작의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위해서 매우 중요한 요소이다. 특히, 뇌격전류에 의한 접지전극의 과도전위상승은 전원설비 및 정보통신기기의 절연내력의 기초 자료가 되기 때문에 정확한 해석이 요구된다. 접지전극의 과도전위상승은 접지임피던스로부터 계산되어지며, 접지임피던스는 접지전극의 형상과 토양의 주파수의존성에 크게 의존적이다. 토양의 주파수의존성은 인가된 전계에 의한 토양의 유전체 특성을 해석할 수 있는 디바이식을 적용하였다. 또한 접지임피던스로부터 과도전위상승을 계산하는 방법을 제시하였다. 디바이식을 적용한 과도전위상승 결과를 분석하기 위해서 전송선로 모델과 대지저항률이 일정한 경우에 대해서 각각 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 수평접지전극은 30 m이며, 표준 뇌격전류파형에 대해서 대지저항률이 10, 100, $1000{\Omega}{\cdot}m$에 대해서 각각 분석하였다. 그 결과 디바이식을 적용하여 계산된 수평접지 전극의 과도전위상승이 다른 모델의 경우보다 더 낮게 나타났다.

Soil discharges near the ground rod play an important role to reduce the ground potential rise and the ground impedance and to help the fault current to spread into the earth. This paper presents the effects of soil discharges on the transient and conventional ground impedances when the lightning impulse voltage was applied to a ground rod with radial needles. The current-voltage (I-V)curves and transient ground impedance curves were calculated based on the measured current and potential traces. Soil discharge behaviors related to I-V curves and transient ground impedance curves were analyzed as a function of the magnitude of lightning impulse voltages. As a result, the soil discharges occurred near the ground electrode contribute to the reduction of conventional ground impedance and limits the ground potential rise effectively under lightning impulse voltages.

뇌격전류가 정보통신설비의 접지시스템에 유입되었을 때 발생하는 과도전위상승에 대한 해석은 접지시스템을 효과적으로 설계하기 위해서 요구되는 사항 중에 하나이다. 접지시스템의 성능은 보통 접지시스템의 전기적 특성을 나타내는 접지임피던스와 과도전위상승으로 평가된다. 뇌격전류의 입사점에 따른 접지임피던스를 계산하는 방법을 제안하였다. 뇌격전류가 수평접지전극의 중앙에 입사되는 경우 델타갭소스 모델을 이용하여 접지임피던스를 계산하였다. 디바이 모델(Debye Model)을 이용하여 주파수의존적인 토양 파라미터를 적용할 수 있는 프로그램을 제안하였다. 그 이유는 접지시스템의 성능을 분석하는 상용프로그램은 주파수 의존적인 토양 파라미터 특성을 적용할 수 없기 때문이다. 동일한 조건에서의 시뮬레이션 결과의 신뢰성을 확인하기 위해서 실험을 수행하였다. 마지막으로, 토양 파라미터의 주파수의존성을 반영한 접지임피던스를 이용하여 뇌격전류파형에 따른 수평접지전극의 과도전위상승을 분석하였다.

High-Smokestacks have been the symbol of the thermal power plant. Those cause the thermal power plant to be damaged by lightening for reaching several hundreds meter. In this paper, we investigated the accident of low-voltage source circuit due to grounding potential rise by lightening via high-smokestack in practically driving power plant, described examination into the cause and the impulse analysis. We analysed the transient voltage by EMTP(ElectroMagnetic Transient Program) via modeling the grounding system of power plant. This theoretical results coincided with practical accidental state. Therefore, it was verified that we could apply the grounding system of power plant and substation with the distribution-circuit analysis(EMTP).

This paper presents the transient impedance behaviors of grounding systems to lightning impulse current. The potential rise and effective impulse ground impedance of the test grounding electrodes were measured as a function of the rise time of impulse currents and lengths of down conductor. The transient ground impedances strongly depend on the configuration and size of grounding electrodes, the impulse current shapes and lengths of down conductor, and the inductance of reduce of grounding electrode inductance is an important factor to improve the transient ground impedance.

Although DC ground resistance is a good index of performance for a grounding system, it does not reflect the grounding performance during the transient states. Besides, impulse ground impedance, which is defined by a ratio of the peak value of transient ground potential rise to the peak value of impulse current, cannot be an absolute performance index due to its dependence on impulse current shape. In this paper, a grounding performance of needle-typed ground rod has been compared with simple ground rod using HIFREQ[1], which is an engineering electro-magnetic code based on MoM (Method of Moment).

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.

This paper describes the experimental results of a transient impedance characteristics of grounding rods to a square pulse and standard lightning impulse current. The test were performed on single grounding rod($\phi$ 10mm, 1m) and triple-grounding rods( $\phi$ 10mm, 1m) of equilateral triangles with 5m spacing. For measurements of transient impedance, a pulse generator which can produce square wave of 30ns rise time and 20U Pulse duration was designed and fabricated. In the experiment, transient impedance of the grounding systems have been investigated from the recorded potential and current waveforms. The results showed that the value of the transient impedance is quite higher than the stationary resistance, and provide useful information for the value of a grounding system considered transient characteristics under a high frequency condition such as lightning stokes and ground-fault.
