The research on the effect of earthquake and secondary disasters on electrical facilities of power grid

is a hotspot in engineering fields. We summarize the research progresses intransmission line

substation equipment

power generation facilities

disaster monitors and emergency rescue technologies

and so on

and point out the key issues that need to be resolved in prevention progress of earthquake and secondary disasters on power facilities. First

earthquake disaster modes and the impacts of disasters on the transmission lines are summarized to point out that the research about the earthquake disaster mechanism and facility earthquake-resistant method should integrate the ontology factors of transmission line and local geological formation factors. Second

the disaster damage mechanism and test method of power transmission equipment are reviewd to indicate limitations of seismic research of substation equipment. Third

the prevention progress of earthquake on power generation facilities about hydropower stations

wind power structures and nuclear power plant is analyzed to find out that the research on power generation facilities is still oriented towards the actual needs of the project. Finally

the development of emergency rescue and disaster monitor method is reviewed to strengthen the application of new technologies in prevention of earthquake and secondary disasters on power facilities.
