Introduction
Case study: modelling of a 90 kV cross-bonded link with EMTP-RV
Switching surge
Lightning stroke
Conclusion & perspectives
Introduction
For long UGL, sectionalised cross-bonding is common practice.
Until recently, SVL were installed at each cross-bonding point.
Terminations
Sectionalizing joints
Earthing joints
Minor section
Major section
The availability of reliable tools for transient studies allows the optimization of
the design of cross-bonded links.

This is also true in the worst case of re-closing of a charged cable on voltage of
opposite polarity.
This is also true when performing a sensitivity analysis on re-closing time,
length of minor sections, length of bonding leads, earthing resistances, cable
cross-section, number of major sections.
