The IST sensitivity analysis in Fig. 3 for the “study” insulator will result in a 2%-
ESDD pollution performance of 0.22 mg/cm² (“heavy pollution”). More performance
can be reached if more underrib sheds will be added (up to CF of 4.0). At same

insulators of this design.

Category Description
This is a basic case. Only one single-line earth fault occurs within the transmission
circuits. For both electromagnetic and electrostatic duties, the currents to be
Category 0
interrupted and recovery voltages are low. The values of category 0 are covered by
those of Category 1.
One single-phase earth fault plus another single-phase earth fault on different circuit
without successive fault. This is the case that up to one single-phase earth fault
Category 1
within each circuit in a double-circuit system. This Category will be covered by
class H1 in [3]
This is the case that a successive single-phase earth fault occurs during HSES opening
operation at the phase where the first single-phase earth fault occurs. Successive
Category 2
fault may occur in the same circuit or in the other circuit located in the vicinity of the
circuit with a faulted line. This Category will be covered by class H2 in [3]
This is the case that a single-phase earth faults with delayed current zero phenomena
occurs in the presence of a successive single-phase earth fault. During the delayed
Category 3
current zero period HSES should be withstood against the stress caused by the arc
generated between the contacts of HSES.
This is the case that multi-phase faults occur within two or more phase circuits which
Category 4 are located in the vicinity each other. At least two different phases should be
remained without fault condition.

Influences of the high DC component on test-duty T100a does not show any significant
difference when the constant exceeds around 120ms. Therefore, it was recommended to

Summary and Considerations
Insulation levels
Suppressing switching overvoltage as much as possible is a predominant factor to
reduce the height of transmission towers and the dimension of open-air parts in
substations. Such technologies as MOSA with higher performance, CB with
opening/closing resistors, DS with switching resistor can effectively suppress the
switching surges less than 1.6pu for substation equipment and 1.7pu for OH-lines.
Secondary arc
4-legged shunt reactor can reduce the secondary arc current by a half.
Secondary arc can be extinguished less than 1 sec. if the current does not exceed 60 A.
First-pole-to-clear factor (FPCF)
Use of a large capacity power transformer reduces FPCF (1.1 for Japan, 1.2 for India)
DC time constant / Line surge impedance
Multi sub-conductors bundles with large diameter can increase the time constants (150
ms for Japan, 120 ms for China) and reduce the line surge impedance around 350 ohm.
TRV
MOSAs reduce the TRV peak for some terminal faults below the SIPL for in UHV systems.
TRVs for TLF give severe rate-of-rise of TRV (RRRV) only in special cases.

Methodology
The AC power flow studies have been performed using a Newton-
Raphson iterative method to characterize the steady state operation.
The CSP power has always higher dispatch priority versus Sardinian
wind production: the export capacity of the Sardinian grid is practically
halved
The Sardinian wind production has higher dispatch priority versus the
Algerian power import. In this case, it has been assumed that the
import from the Algerian CSP power plants could be curtailed in order
to allow full wind production.

Bologna 14 Sept. 2011 - Session 2.9 Ultra High Voltage
Cigrè International Symposium Bologna 13-15 Sept. 2011
The wind production takes advantage from the SAPEI and no curtailment is
required (in steady state conditions). Some limitations may occur with high
wind production due to local network congestions
The PV generation does not reduce the evening peak load of the Sardinian
system, but it is able to partially reduce the active losses and the exploitation
of some 150 kV lines, especially during the midday peak load.
From the point of view of the Italian electricity market, the almost complete
elimination of the congestions on the Sardinia – mainland connection allows
reducing the zonal prices of Sardinia as well as the unique national energy
price.

Answer I
- The suitable ratio between RES and thermoelectric power is the one
expected for 2020:

Bologna 14 Sept. 2011 - Session 2.9 Ultra High Voltage
Cigrè International Symposium Bologna 13-15 Sept. 2011
Question II
The author has been demonstrated with the study that the 150
kV network is the most critical asset of the Sardinia
transmission grid where the majority of wind farms are
connected particularly in the north-east part of the island.
Connecting the wind farms to higher voltage systems such as
220 kV or 380 kV networks can alleviate network congestions,
but at very high costs for power producers and system
stakeholders. What’s the best high voltage grade for the
network with RES?

≥ 70% ≥ 80% ≥ 90% ≥ 100%
The best high voltage grade for the network with RES is 220 kV level, because:
- The 380 kV network is poorly developed and the connection costs are too
high;
- the 220 kV level is the best compromise between cost and reliability of the
connection
21
Bologna 14 Sept. 2011 - Session 2.9 Ultra High Voltage
Cigrè International Symposium Bologna 13-15 Sept. 2011
Question III
Large RES generation facilities are far from the main urban
consumption areas, long distance power transmission
infrastructures are required, an increase in active losses takes
place and some additional difficulties in local voltage control
may also arise. How do the renewable energy sources affect
the structure of power transmission network? And How does the
power transmission network affect the application of RES?
22
Bologna 14 Sept. 2011 - Session 2.9 Ultra High Voltage
Cigrè International Symposium Bologna 13-15 Sept. 2011
Answer III
The power system affects the application of RES introducing some limits to
the distributed generation connection to the grid mainly due to the fact that
the grid has not been constituted to receive high level of RES
