Investigation of protection problems due to geomagnetically induced currents

Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GIC), flowing in power systems during Solar Magnetic Disturbances (SMD), can cause severe offset saturation of power system transformers. Continuous saturation of transformers can result in transformer overheating, and cause harmon c currents to be injected into the...
