Introduction
Transformers, switchgears, control panels, protection relays, as well as communication devices can be found in electrical substations. However, impacts from direct lightning strikes and surge voltages can lead to damage of these assets, safety risks, interruptions in operations, and issues with power distribution. Lightning protection methods used at substations can ensure electrical safety and smooth operation.
