Lightning protection needs vary according to each specific facility. The requirements of telecom structures, buildings, power utility substations, transmission and distribution systems and grounding and bonding requirements can all vary greatly. In all cases, the purpose of a high-quality lightning protection system is to:
The lightning protection system for the site must comply with IEEE 998. 4.2.1.1 Substation lightning protection systems must protect substations equipment and buildings) from harmful effects of direct lighting strikes. 4.2.1.2 These systems must protect the substation from thermal, mechanical and electrical effects caused by lighting discharges.
Lightning Protection System Design: Designing an integrated lightning protection system that includes air terminals (lightning rods), down conductors, and grounding electrodes to safely conduct lightning strikes to the ground.
The Australian Standard for Lightning Protection, AS 1768:2021, provides guidelines for lightning protection systems, and compliance with this standard can significantly reduce the probability of damage and injuries from lightning strikes.
