Back flashover
Fast-front overvoltages studies
FFO originates mainly from :
lightning,
switching via short connections,
external insulation flashover.
Performed to determine :
lightning performance of overhead lines : nb of flash over / year,
risk of failure of equipment (transformer insulation, energy duty of
arresters
Random nature of lightning imposes statistical approach :
lightning can hit towers, shield wires or phase conductors,
lightning crest current can be between 1kA and 200 kA.

Temporary overvoltages studies
TOV originates mainly from :
earth fault,
load rejection,
switching nonlinear components (unloaded transformer).
Performed to assess stresses on equipment related to power-frequency
withstand (insulation of transformers, energy capability of arresters)
Usually rated voltage of surge arrester is based upon the determination
of the maximum envelope of the expected TOV.
