In this study, a new controlled switching approach is proposed. This method is applied to the controlled closing of high voltage uncompensated transmission lines. The new approach is a developed version of conventional zero‐crossing controlled switching approach. Performance of the new approach is evaluated and compared with the conventional controlled switching approach, using the electro‐magnetic transients program. The results of simulation studies confirm the advantages of new approach over existing methods.
