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.
How to ground a metal structure if a lightning flash strikes a roof?
There are now several grounding approaches when the roof was struck by a lightning flash, including external grounding, nearby grounding, separate grounding and common grounding. This paper took a metal structure substation in Nanjing as an example and calculated its ground potential in case of different grounding system.
What is a metal structure grounding system?
Grounding device is an indispensable facility for lightning protection of buildings. which are made of metal as a whole including th e roof. There are now several grounding grounding, separate grounding and common grounding. This paper took a metal structure grounding system. We cam e to such conclusions: 1) For substations of separate grounding
Why should a substation be protected from lightning strikes?
At this sub-station, the surrounding environment of the facility has an integral effect, so the designed external structure is critical to avoid the impact of lightning strikes, and all factors indicate that the high protection of the station leads to full stability of all parts of the substation .
Do you need a lightning protection system?
If you want to protect your investment, surge protection is not an option, it is a necessity, but if you want total protection and peace of mind, a lightning protection system can make the difference between the success and failure of large-scale solar power installations.
What is lightning protection level system (LPL)?
