The protection of extra high voltage transmission lines from lightning is of considerable importance as a result of the excessive flashover rate of such lines in the United States. The problem is quite complex, because the factors involved are many and relatively few accurate data are available. Int

✦ Synopsis
A perfluorocarbon (PFC)-immersed 275-kV transformer with compressed SF,, gas has been developed. This paper describes the basic cooling and insulation characteristics of PFC, the ac partial discharge voltage, and the aging of PFC-immersed insulation. The results demonstrate that a prototype 275-kV 100-MVA threephase transformer can be operated without any difficulties for an extended period of overvoltage. This prototype has an ac partial discharge initiation strength which is 1.5 times that of the ac test voltage and a lightning impulse breakdown strength which is 1.5 times that of the test voltage. A 275-kV 250-MVA three-phase transformer was built and is being operated at the Abe substation of Chubu Electric Power Co., Inc. The transformer has been operating satisfactorily.
