The Technical and Economic Assessment of the Lightning Rod Symmetrization Effect on Overvoltage in Narrow Structures
Original language description
The authors of the article accentuate the significance of symmetrical placement of lightning conductors on the position of lightning current in them. The aim of the article is to prove the instructions described in the standard IEC 62305 and confirm theconclusion that buildings should be protected not only by a lightning rod but also by lightning conductors that constitute an irreplaceable component of a comprehensive protection system. If lightning rod influences the safe placement of lightning discharge above a building, then individual lightning conductor determines its safe grounding. Lightning conductors have a major impact on the induction of lightning current in structures. Unfortunately, many buildings whose height is much bigger than their width (towers, lookout towers, high-rise buildings, factory tacks) contain only one lightning conductor, which does not ensure their protection. The authors prove this fact on examples of protection of structures such as lookout towers and
