III. SIMULATION RESULTS
Fig. 1 is simulated on ATP. In this simulation after each
simulation maximum value of voltages are saved. In order to
do simulation according to Monte Carlo method,
programming is done in Matlab environment and the
probability of overvoltages occurrence are computed.

IV. CONCLUSION
A Monte Carlo model of then lightning performance of
Bam substation has been constructed in ATP. The values of
the random parameters are generated at every run according to
the probability distribution function assumed for each
parameter and overvoltages are computed. The probability of
overvoltage occurrence is computed. This method could be
helpful for insulation coordination design in substation.
