Abstract: Discharges from overhead power lines and lightning discharges may severely endanger human life and health. If non-lethal, burn injuries may also last for a lifetime, so as Lichtenberg figures caused by lightning discharges. Some accidents with burns are discussed in this paper and recommendations given for safety reasons. Specific...

Lightning induced voltages on overhead power lines are calculated in this paper by using different return stroke engineering models for the evaluation of electromagnetic fields. Agrawal formulation is used for field-to-line coupling equations and Cooray-Rubinstein correction is applied in order to include the impact of the finitely conducting...
