Summary: | A cloud-to-ground lightning activity data collected by a Lightning Detection
System (LDS) along the 275 kV transmission line KLMK-PROI in year 2004 to 2005
from Seremban to Melaka has been investigated. The LDS are installed by TNB
Research Sdn Bhd (TNBR) in 1994. Annual lightning days are acquired and ground
flash density maps are constructed from the database. Lightning parameters such as,
polarity, ground flash density and peak lightning current were analyzed with the
lightning data collected by LDS. The lightning data was analyzed using FALLS (Fault
Analysis and Lightning Location System) software. It is found that the negative
lightning is observed more than the positive lightning. Also found that the value of peak
current either negative or positive polarity is about 30 kA. The performance of LDS,
especially detection efficiency, was evaluated using the data obtained from transmission
line fault and lightning activities along transmission line. It is found detection efficiency
is 93.38%. |
