>Information and constructive comments please. >Thanks (I hope!) >Richard Hughes Dear Richard Take a look at following articles: J.J.Goedbloed, Transients in Low-Voltage Supply Networks, IEEE Trans EMC., Vol. EMC-29, No.2, May 1987, pp.104-115 R.B. Standler, Transients on the Mains in a Residential Environment, IEEE Trans. EMC, Vol. EMC-31, No. 2, May 1989, pp. 170-176 F.D. Marzloff, The Propagation and Attenuation of Surge Voltages and Surge Currents in Low-Voltage AC Circuits, IEEE Trans. on Power Apparatus and System, Vol. PAS-102, May 1983, pp.1163-1170 They are all reprinted in "EMC/EMI Selected Readings", edited by V. Prasad Kodaly and M. Kanda (c) IEEE 1996, IEEE Order No. HL5734. In the the article of J.J. Goldbloed you will find a table of the amplitude distribution over 3400 hours, in Industrial, Business, Domestic and Loboratory environment. Abstract of table (transients over 3000V): Industrial - 28 Business - 61 Domestic - 0 Laboratory - 2 Hope it helps Best regards George -- ************************************************************** * Dr. Georg M.
