When the line is connected to a major load on a generating station, sudden load rejection
will result in over speeding of the machines and rise in voltage until such times as this can
be checked by the governors and exciters.
The amplitude of the over voltage can be evaluated approximately as specified.
V = E Xc / Xc - Xs
Where, E is the voltage behind the transient reactance, which is assumed to be
constant over the sub transient period and its value before the incident,
Xs is the transient reactance of the generator in series with the transformer reactance,
and Xc the equivalent capacitive input reactance of the system.
If a source is stiff, a high percentage of the source voltage is impressed across the line at
the time breaker closes to energies a transmission line. If the line is open at the far end ,or
terminated in load such as an unloaded transformer, the voltage wave will double at the
remote end.
Sometimes a line switched with the transformer at the remote end still connected. the line
has a path through the magnetizing impedance of the transformer, by which it can
discharge. However, as long as the transformer core is unsaturated, this represents a high
impedance and the discharge is very slow. But the transformer core runs in to saturation
the impedance drops abruptly and the discharge is very rapid. Once again, as the core
comes out of saturation, the voltage will level out.
During the restrike, the voltage across the switch will be divided in to the source side and
to the line based on their respective surge impedance. The wave level up and down the
line corresponding to the oscillatory of the bank in thecase of lumped capacitance.
Sometimes a line is switched with transformer at line end, In this case, the trapped charge
dissipate through the magnetizing impedance of the transformer. Until saturation of
transformer core, transformer offers high impedance and the discharge is slow. But the
impedance drops abruptly when the core runs in to saturation.
