Using the detected events of geomagnetically induced current (GIC) in the Ling’ao nuclear power plant from 2004 to 2005, and focusing on the interplanetary cause of GIC and its effect on power systems, we have analyzed the corresponding solar driving sources and interplanetary solar wind structures,...
