integrated power system.
UNIT I INTRODUCTION AND SURVEY 9
Review and importance of the study of transients - causes for transients. RL circuit transient
with sine wave excitation - double frequency transients - basic transforms of the RLC circuit
transients. Different types of power system transients - effect of transients on power systems
– role of the study of transients in system planning.
UNIT II SWITCHING TRANSIENTS 9
Over voltages due to switching transients - resistance switching and the equivalent circuit for
interrupting the resistor current - load switching and equivalent circuit - waveforms for transient
voltage across the load and the switch - normal and abnormal switching transients. Current
suppression - current chopping - effective equivalent circuit. Capacitance switching - effect of
source regulation - capacitance switching with a restrike, with multiple restrikes. Illustration for
multiple restriking transients - ferro resonance.

parameters and distributed lines. Traveling wave concept - step response - Bewely’s lattice
diagram - standing waves and natural frequencies - reflection and refraction of travelling
waves.
