In Japan, Japanese Industrial standards (JIS) for lightning protection for wind turbines is scheduled to be revised and the required performance of lightning detectors for wind turbines will be added. We conduct evaluation tests of a newly developed lightning detector for wind turbines and confirm that it satisfies the performance requirements of JIS. Furthermore, we confirm that the detector can detect and record lightning strikes in an actual installation environment through demonstration tests.

This paper discusses the effect of lightning-induced voltage on a hybrid solar photovoltaic (PV)-battery energy storage system (BESS) without an external lightning protection system (LPS). Solar PV generates electricity by converting solar energy and providing it to the user. In addition, battery energy storage is also utilised to supply consistency and satisfy the need for energy. However, because the system is installed in open spaces, lightning has always been a huge difficulty for it to work at optimal efficiency. In this paper, the single SPD Class I was installed near the inverter on the DC side. The study on cable length with various lightning current amplitude and lightning strike distance is conducted. The simulation findings found that the inverter is well protected by the SPD whereby the impulse withstand voltage is 6 kV, however, the solar PV-BESS is affected by the lightning-induced voltage regardless of any cable length. In this way, providing the requirement for an adequate SPD installation will ensure improved maintenance and extend the equipment’s lifespan.

A wind turbine installed in winter lightning areas is required to be equipped with a detection system that can accurately detect a lightning strike. The lighting detection systems using a large-diameter Rogowski coil with high measurement accuracy are widely used, but it is expensive and costs more than one million yen per unit. In this paper, we report the result of the frequency characteristic measurement of the self-made lightning detection system using a large-diameter Rogowski. The system is manufactured at a low cost, is cheaper than the currently popular large-diameter Rogowski coil type lightning detection system.

Aiming at the problem of coupling response characteristics of internal cables when metal masts are struck by lightning, a lightning induction coupling test platform for the cable system inside the masts was built, and the induced voltage of coaxial cables, two-core single-shielded cables, and multi-core double-shielded cables were measured under four kinds of terminal load characteristics (open circuit at both ends of core wire, the end of the core wire near from the ground is connected to the load, the end of the core wire far from the ground is connected to the load and both ends of the core wire are connected to the load). From the perspective of time domain and frequency domain, the influence of load characteristics on induced voltage is analyzed. The results show that under the function of simulated lightning currents, the induced voltage of three cables all reaches the maximum value when the far-ground end of wire is grounded by load; the main frequency band of the induced voltage is greater than the lightning current when the near-ground terminal is grounded by load, while the two are similar under other load characteristics; grounding the inner shield can reduce the peak value of the induced voltage, its effect depends on the terminal load characteristics, but does not affect the main frequency band of the frequency response. This paper reveals the influence of terminal load characteristics on cable coupling induced voltage when lightning strikes the metal mast of a ship, and provides basic data support for the subsequent calculation of coupling effect.

Aiming at the problem of unclear distribution characteristics of space charge near the blade tip of the wind turbine, this paper used the simulation modelling method to simulate corona discharge of the blade tip at different angles. The relative motion between the wind turbine’s blade and surrounding air when the wind turbine rotates is equivalent to the high-speed airflow through the blade tip. A two-dimensional positive space charge distribution model of corona discharge was established considering the attachment and collision between positive ions and other ions. Based on the above model, the blade tip corona discharge was simulated, and the distribution and migration characteristics of positive space charge were obtained when the blades were at different angles. It is found that, under the lightning electric field and high-speed airflow, the transfer velocity of space charge provided by the high-speed airflow flowing through the blade tip is much higher than that provided by electric field traction. Therefore, the transfer and diffusion direction of space charge in the blade tip is mainly determined by the direction of the high-speed airflow at the blade tip. At the same time, the space charge no longer symmetrically distributed in space causes space potential distortion, the potential on the left side (windward side) of the blade tip air-termination is higher than that on the right side at the same height, and the direction of the maximum electric field near the blade tip air-termination shifts to the left, and the electric field amplitude also increases compared with that in the static condition. The work in this paper can provide a basis for the initiation and development calculation of upstream pilot wind turbine blades.

On a new offshore platform construction project, as part of lightning protection system (LPS), an air terminal (AT) was designed to be installed at the platform’s process vent tip to mitigate potential ignition at that area during coincident existence of hydrocarbon release and lightning occurrence phenomenon. The AT was designed as part of compliance to company’s standardized technical practice on LPS, which is intended to prevent any accidental ignition at the vent tip area that may result in flame getting propagated into the vent system. Calculated hazardous zone radius of 7.01 meters, requires the AT designed height to be approximately 8 meters to ensure it is outside of the hazardous area cloud. This height is deemed impractical. Dimension of the AT contributes to major impact on the vent stack structural design as it leads to additional construction material which results to increase in platform weight. From project execution perspective, this will increase overall cost and lengthen the project execution schedule. Risk assessment was done on not having to install the AT on vent stack and several means are identified to manage the risk through appropriate mitigation plans. These mitigation plans support project management team decision to deviate from company’s standardized technical practice on LPS.

A thunderstorm that occurred in the Kanto area in Japan, on August 26, 2018, was confirmed to accompany bolt-from-the-blue (BFB) lightning by photographic analysis. To examine the characteristics of BFB lightning flashes caused by this thunderstorm, occurrence frequency, horizontal discharge distance, and direction of discharge progress, quantitative analysis was conducted using lightning mapping array data and extended radar information network (XRAIN) precipitation data for the first time in Japan. This thunderstorm produced 18 BFB flashes. The maximum and average horizontal discharge distance from the edge of the precipitation area were 3,652 m and 1,431 m, respectively. The distance from the edge of the precipitation area and the discharge inception altitude of the BFB flashes seemed to be longer and higher than normal cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning flashes. In particular, the direction of the BFB discharge progress showed a characteristic distribution concentrated on the south side of the thunderstorm and right side of its movement direction. The surface wind around this area flowed from the south side into the thunderstorm. According to XRAIN precipitation data, BFB flashes occur around heavy rain regions (convective region) inside the thunderstorm. The BFB-producing thunderstorm in this study was extremely dangerous because BFB flashes occurred in the opposite direction of the thunderstorm’s movement direction.

Lightning performance assessment is important to carry out the effective lightning countermeasures for medium voltage distribution lines. And thus, many studies of indirect and direct lightning performance have been carried out. In many studies, the reduction of the flashover voltage due to salt pollution of distribution insulators has not been considered. When the insulator is polluted by salt, flashover voltage of the insulators decreases, and it may cause the increase of the flashover rate due to lightning. In this paper, at first, we show the flashover characteristics of insulators considering the salt pollution. Next, we estimate the direct lightning flashover rate under salt pollution condition by Monte Carlo procedure. The calculation results show that the influence of salt pollution on the flashover rate may be relatively greater in the well-protected distribution lines.
