Piezoelectric Lightning Current Detection
Original language description
This article discusses an alternative possibility of detecting lightning discharge strike at a lightning protection system, as compared with the classical sensors based on the inductive principle (using a coil) or the principles requiring external feed, such as the application of the Faraday optical transformer. The key advantage offered by our proposed system is its indirect method of evaluating the impacted lightning protection system, which is based on the piezoelectric principle. Other advantages of the proposed system include direct independence on the lightning current passing through the downconductor and thus a lower risk of damage to the sensor by the lightning current, and absolute independence of the inner installation and, therefore, elimination of any risks for its operators and users, as well as a lower risk of an electric discharge flashover and outbreak of fire in a given structure.
