Car truck dicharge current
Car truck dicharge current
(OP)
How can I calculate a discharge current for a car (truck) which is located underneath of a transmission line(230 kV)?
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

The folks over in the Microwave and Electromagnetic Engineering forum could be helpful as well.

Thanks

The amount of current will be small. The electric field can induce a significant voltage on the truck can when insulated, but the amount of energy is small.

If a high resistance body such as a vehicle is placed between ground and an energised conductor, it will act as if a resistor has been placed in series with one of the capacitors.
It depends if this is a real world problem, or a homework problem with a poorly chosen example.

You should also have the car's radio antenna down when doing this for certain safety reasons. A better setup would be to run the grounding wire from the car to an area ouside of the power line right of way and have your ammeter and ground rod there.
