Development of an improved low frequency transformer model for use in GIC studies

Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GIC) are the ground effect of a complicated space weather chain that originates in the sun. During a GIC event, the quasi dc current that enters the transformers through the grounded neutral can cause severe half cycle saturation in the iron core. This results in...
