In this research, a new analysis is proposed to detect the correct extinction of secondary arc in the re-closure protection, for long overhead lines in 220 kV. A new methodology for increasing the success rate of single-phase reclosing is proposed, with transient analysis (EMPT-ATP) have been done for over voltage detection in long overhead transmission lines, re-closure effect and probability, maneuver of line reactors, transient recovery voltages (TRV) caused by secondary arc phenomenon, unbalanced transmission lines and resonance. Finally, a case study is implemented with real fault conditions. Later, in the discussion section, the relation to the strength of the grounding system is analyzed and over voltage effects in the power system with the verification of the secondary arc extinction and the correct procedure of analysis.
