Technical FAQs 4

What is a lightning protection system?

A lightning protection system provides optimal protection by coordinating both the external and internal lightning protection segments: The external lightning protection system consists of an air termination system, down conductor and earth-termination system.

How should a lightning protection System (RBS) be formed?

The earthing network of an RBS should be formed by a ring loop surrounding the tower, equipment room and fence, at a minimum. The mean radius re of this ring loop should be not less than l1, as indicated in Figure 1 and this value depends on the lightning protection system (LPS) class and on the soil resistivity.

What is the difference between external and internal lightning protection systems?

The external lightning protection system consists of an air termination system, down conductor and earth-termination system. The internal lightning protection system encompasses lightning equipotential bonding and surge protective devices. Protection Components inside the Surge Protection Device

Are rooftop antennas protected from lightning strikes?

If the antenna is installed on the rooftop, e.g., antenna positions 2 of Figure 29, depending on the relative height of building and the installation of the antenna system, it may be considered to be inherently protected from direct lightning strikes or be impacted by or exposed to direct lightning strikes.
