Lightning Protection | Part-2 | General Principles as EN or
This video is based on the BS EN/IEC 62305-1 which has defined four Lightning Protection Levels (LPLs) based on probable minimum and maximum lightning currents.
#lightningprotection #IEC62305 #electricalengineering
This Video will help you to understand the following concepts
-What actual mean by the Minimum & maximum lightning currents.
-How Lightning strike increases the step & touch potential?
-What is the striking distance or Rolling sphere radius
-What are the risk associated with the lightning strike?
-how to read the 10/350 μs current wave?
You must watch the first part if you are little bit curious about " Formation of Lightning."
#Lightningformation, this Video would explain about " How & why Lightning forms naturally ". Lightning is a natural phenomenon which develops when the upper atmosphere becomes unstable. How this instability produce lightning have been explained in the Video.

Lightning protection systems do not prevent lightning from striking the structure, but rather intercept a lightning strike, provide a conductive path for the harmful electrical discharge to follow and disperse the energy safely into the ground (grounding network).
Lightning Protection as per #IEC62305 provides the following information
