Table 9-1 Lightning Protection System for Pole Mounting A8n Series Base Station
A lightning protection system provides a means by which a lightning discharge may
enter or leave earth without passing through and damaging personnel, equipment or
the buildings. It does not prevent lightning from striking but provides a means for
controlling it and prevents damage by providing a low resistance path for discharge
of the lightning energy.
A typical lightning protection system for A8n series base station is shown in Figure 24. It
consists of 5 parts:
Lightning Rod
Ground Conductor
Grounding Plate
Earth Termination
