Introduction
n Electromagnetic transients in power system components [1]:
n Origin: sudden change in the steady state values of voltages or currents (lightning
stroke, system malfunction, normal operation switching operation, switching
operation to clear a fault, etc).
n Duration, i.e. frequency range:
n LI-overvoltages: according to the IEC standard 1.2s/50s (<1MHz).
n Fast transients: as an example in a combination of a transformer, vacuum
CB, and cable with the rise time around 0.1s (or even shorter) (<10MHz)
n Very fast transients: for example in GIS with the rise time of around 5ns
(<100MHz)

Conclusions (Transformers)
The suggested method is mathematically well founded, stable, accurate and
efficient.
Due to its generality the presented method can be used in case of very complex
windings (transformers for 36-pulse rectifiers, for example).
The disagreement between the simulations and measurements in terms of both
the oscillation frequencies and the voltage peaks stays below 20%.
Considering the complexity of the analysis this accuracy is sufficient for the daily
design.

Conclusions (GIS)
Full-Maxwell 3-D simulation of the VFTs in GIS are feasible.
The results of the 3-D VFT simulations improve our understanding of the
phenomenon.
The presented simulations reveal critical places of the given GIS design.
The 3-D time-domain VFT simulations enable parameter studies and design
optimization.
Simulation based resonator design was confirmed by experiments.
Efficiency of the resonator at damping the VFTs was confirmed by
measurements.
