This paper investigates the propagation of subnanosecond rise time (ultra wideband) voltage transients in low-voltage installation power cables. Experimental results are compared to simulations. It is concluded that the main mode of propagation of differentially injected transients in low-voltage installation power cables is transverse electromagnetic mode. Also, such transients would spread relatively unattenuated to any load or junction in the power system, received power primarily only limited by the impedance mismatches causing reflections. The effects of different types of bends in the cable have been studied. The study was conducted as a part of an assessment of the susceptibility of civilian facilities to intentional electromagnetic interference.
