Abstract
The proliferation in electric vehicle (EV) adoption has necessitated the rapid development of EV charging stations (EVCSs). Given their susceptibility to lightning strikes, it is crucial to guarantee the dependability and security of these stations. This research investigates the impact of lightning on EVCSs, focusing on the critical role of grounding systems. By simulating various lightning strike scenarios, the study examines the influence of factors such as grounding configuration, cable shielding, and lightning current characteristics on the induced overvoltages within EVCS components. The findings contribute to the development of robust lightning protection strategies for EVCSs, enhancing their resilience and ensuring the safe operation of EVs.
期刊介绍:
IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution is intended as a forum for the publication and discussion of current practice and future developments in electric power generation, transmission and distribution. Practical papers in which examples of good present practice can be described and disseminated are particularly sought. Papers of high technical merit relying on mathematical arguments and computation will be considered, but authors are asked to relegate, as far as possible, the details of analysis to an appendix.
The scope of IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution includes the following:
Design of transmission and distribution systems
Operation and control of power generation
Power system management, planning and economics
Power system operation, protection and control
Power system measurement and modelling
Computer applications and computational intelligence in power flexible AC or DC transmission systems
Special Issues. Current Call for papers:
Next Generation of Synchrophasor-based Power System Monitoring, Operation and Control - https://digital-library.theiet.org/files/IET_GTD_CFP_NGSPSMOC.pdf
