AS compared to transmission lines, it is more important that overhead ground wires or vertical masts over substations be correctly located so as to provide shielding of the structure against direct strokes of lightning. In a previously published paper1 the authors discussed the shielding characteristics required for transmission lines. The present paper extends these investigations to the shielding of substations.
