426 Power System Transients
However, further improvement of the overall simulation method is needed
to achieve quantitative agreement with the measured results. For example,
an SPD has to be carefully represented based on its circuit and nonlinear
characteristics. Also, grounding impedance should be modeled based on its
transient characteristics rather than the simple resistance used in this section.
6.3.3.4 Concluding Remarks
This section has shown the experimental and EMTP simulation results of
an LS at a house. The simulation results agree qualitatively with the experi-
mental results, and thus the simulation models in the chapter are adequate.
Because measurements were calculated during different time periods over
the course of 3 years, experi ...
