The growing use of electric and electronic equipment prone to electromagnetic interferences and the adoption of new criteria for evaluating the quality of the power supplied have increased the number of studies developed in order to obtain information regarding the characteristics of overvoltages on low-voltage networks. Such fact has motivated the development of this work, which aimed at analyzing overvoltages caused by lightning discharges near secondary networks. The study first covers voltages transferred to the low-voltage network through the transformer due to induced voltages on its primary terminals. In order to accomplish that, experimental results obtained on a reduced scale model are used, as well as measurements of natural lightning induced voltages on a line specially built to study the phenomena. The voltages transferred to the secondary network, considering several waveforms on the primary, are analyzed by using a typical distribution transformer model, proven valid for evaluating transferred surges. The study then presents the calculation of voltages induced on low-voltage networks by discharges on their vicinity through the “Extended Rusck Model” (ERM) – a model that has been validated by hundreds of comparisons between measured and calculated induced voltages. This work discusses the influences on induced voltages of the manner of representing the transformer and the loads connected to the secondary, as well as grounding resistance, amplitude and stroke current propagation speed, etc. Comparisons between lightning induced voltages on open wire lines and on lines with twisted conductors are also made. The use of surge protective devices on lines with twisted conductors is analyzed, and the reduction of induced voltage amplitudes is investigated. Finally, induced voltages and voltages transferred to the secondary network through a transformer are compared, considering the same lightning discharge.
