lightning protection measures for outdoor energy storage boxes

What is a lightning protection system?

A lightning protection system not only protects the solar PV system but also provides reliable protection to your entire property and assets while safely diverting transient currents to the ground.

Why do storage tanks need a lightning'solid' connection?

STORAGE TANKS FROM LIGHTNING FOR SAFETY AND RELIABILITYProviding adequate and effective lightning ‘solid’ connection to ground. This usually con-protection for storage tanks constitutes sists of a conductor attached to a grounding a beneficial and cost-effective step in tab at the base of the tank shell running to a assuring both per

Do I need an external lightning protection system?

Therefore the need for optimized and reliable electrical protection against the influence of lightning and surge events becomes mandatory. A risk assessment per IEC 62305-2 should first be performed to understand better if an external lightning protection system (LPS) is required.

Which external lightning protection measures are required?

A risk analysis according to IEC 62305-2 is carried out to determine which external lightning protection measures are required, for example, which class of LPS needs to be considered in the planning and implemented in the lightning protection concept.

How do I ensure a technically correct external lightning protection system?

To ensure a technically correct external lightning protection system, the protected volume must be properly dimen-sioned according to the height of the air-termination rod. With the DEHN Earthing Tool one can calculate the length of earth electrodes in compliance with IEC 62305-3.

What is a lightning protection standard?

The lightning protection standard is an IEC standard and has therefore been incorporated in the standards of the CENE-LEC* member states whilst taking national circumstances into account. Country-specific standard designations and the associated national calculation values can be selected and displayed in the DEHN Risk Tool software.
