Analysis of Early-Time High-Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (E1) Coupling of Three-Dimensional Substation Structures
Triggered by the high-altitude detonation of a nuclear weapon, a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse is a sudden burst of electromagnetic radiation that can damage electronic components and low- and medium-voltage electric infrastructure. This modeling study assessed the effects of the E1 component of a high-altitude electromagnetic pulse on a transmission substation.
