Suppression of Incoming High-Frequency Overvoltage in Transformer Coils.

High-frequency overvoltages are most dangerous for the insulation of transformer coils. It is because high-frequency pulse voltage creates an uneven distribution of voltage across the windings. The coil's first turns receive a disproportionately high voltage drop, leading to the inter-turn circuit. The paper analyzes the types of lightning pulses and proposes a new suppression method based on the anomalous skin effect in a multilayer material and the design in the form of a coil. The developed device is simulated, and the results of overvoltage monitoring at the substation with the installed high-frequency overvoltage suppression device are analyzed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
