Abstract

Precise electrical cable representation is crucial for examining surge transient overvoltages in medium voltage (MV) motor systems. These brief overvoltages, initiated by swift switching actions, may induce substantial insulation strain, equipment degradation, and potential system failures. This study explores the influence of different power cable modeling techniques on transient overvoltage characteristics in MV motors during switching operations. Various modeling techniques, such as aggregated parameter, spread parameter, and frequency-dependent models, are evaluated for their effectiveness in inward capturing transient phenomena. Simulation studies using industry-standard electromagnetic temporary (EMT) assessment instruments evaluate the effect of these simulation methods on voltage spikes, shape distortions, and rise times. The discoveries indicate that exact electrical wire depiction is pivotal in molding, fleeting reactions, emphasizing the significance of choosing suitable simulation methods for efficient insulation coordination and system protection. This research provides valuable guidance for power system engineers, helping them mitigate transient overvoltage risks and improve the reliability of MV motor applications. Also, this study demonstrates electrical cable simulation that can impact the advice and verdicts obtained from moderate voltage motor.
