LIGHTNING PROTECTION ASSESSMENT
A.1. Introduction
This document outlines lightning protection based on the international standard IEC (International
Electrotechnical Commission) 62305 series. The series consists of four documents as shown
below:
IEC 62305 series: Protection against lightning
IEC 62305-1:2010 Part 1: General principles
IEC 62305-2:2010 Part 2: Risk management
IEC 62305-3:2010 Part 3: Physical damage to structures and life hazard
IEC 62305-4:2010 Part 4: Electrical and electronic systems within structure
A.2. Risk Assessment
A.2.1. Evaluate the need of protection
According to IEC 62305-1, the risk shall be considered in the evaluation by protection requirements
against lightning. For each risk to be considered the following steps shall be taken:
– Identification of the components
𝑅
𝑋
which make up the risk;
– Calculation of the identified risk components
𝑅
𝑋
;
– Calculation of the total risk R;
– Identification of the tolerable risk
𝑅
𝑇
;
– Comparison of the risk R with the tolerable value
𝑅
𝑇
.
If
R ≤ x𝑅
𝑇
, lightning protection is not necessary.
If
R > 𝑅
𝑇
, protection measure shall be adopted in order to reduce
R ≤ x𝑅
𝑇
for all risks to which the
structure is subjected.
The procedure to evaluate the need for protection is given in the Figure A.1.
According to IEC 62305-2, risk components are as shown in the Table A.1.
