Lightning Protection Substation: 765KV
IEEE 998 lightning shielding parameters for outdoor substations using the rolling sphere / electrogeometric model (EGM). Includes striking distance, rolling sphere radius, shielding mast heights, shield wire heights, and maximum horizontal separation by voltage class and BIL.
| voltage class | bil kV (kV) | max horizontal separation ft (ft) | notes | protection angle deg (degrees) | rolling sphere radius ft (ft) | standard | striking distance ft (ft) | typical mast height above bus ft (ft) | typical shield wire height ft (ft) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 765KV | 2,050 | 170 | EGM method | 45 | 275 | IEEE 998-2012 | 275 | 140 | 170 |
