サマリー
あらすじ・解説
In this episode, E&S Grounding Solutions President David Stockin discusses Part 5 of a 5-part series about lightning strike scenarios and the ways to protect against them.
In the previous four episodes, we discussed the 4 lightning scenarios that cause damage: cloud-to-cloud strikes, nearby ground strikes, strike to incoming power lines, and finally direct strikes to your building. These problems can be resolved with the following lightning protection strategies: First, a Franklin-style lightning protection system with lightning rods on the roof of the building protects top of your building. This system is tied to the building grounding system, which is made up of ground rods and possibly a buried ground ring. Finally, surge protection device systems will protect your electrical system from incoming lightning surges on your incoming lines. A cascaded surge protection system can add a second line of protection against surges to your electrical system. These systems all work together to create a complete lightning protection system.
