Efekty sluneční aktivity v rozvodných sítích

Výbošťoková, Tatiana

Eruptive events on the Sun have an impact on immediate cosmic surround- ings of the Earth. Through induction of electric current also affect Earthbound structures such as the electric power distribution networks. Inspired by recent studies we investigate the correlation between the disturbances recorded by the Czech electric-power distributors with the geomagnetic activity represented by the K index. We found that in the case of the datasets recording the disturbances on the power lines with the high and very high voltage levels and disturbances on elec- trical substations, there was a statistically significant increase of failure rates in the periods of maxima of geomagnetic activity compared to the adjacent minima of activity. There are hints that the disturbances are more pronounced shortly after the maxima than shortly before the maxima of activity. Our results provide hints that the geomagnetically induced currents may af- fect the power-grid equipment even in the mid-latitude country in the middle of Europe. A follow-up study that includes the modelling of geomagnetically induced currents is needed to confirm our findings. The second part of our research includes modelling of geoelectric field using one-minute geomagnetic measurements from Intermagnet database. We applied this model to the long-term...
