Equations to calculate the inducing scalar and vector potentials produced by inclined return strokes are shown. Equations are also shown for calculating the induced voltages on overhead lines where horizontal components of inducing vector potential exist. The adequacy of the calculation method is demonstrated by field experiments. Using these equations, induced voltages on overhead lines are calculated for a variety of directions of return strokes.
