Lightning protection in photovoltaic (PV) systems is a critical area of study as these installations are increasingly exposed to atmospheric discharges that can substantially disrupt energy production ...

Reference [1] describes a process for the design of lightning protection that transforms the transient experienced by the components during the lightning test ...

Without question, a thunderstorm is very dangerous. It can produce high winds, tornados, hail, and floods, which usually are not big problems for boats or ships. But it also creates ESD events called ...

The Lightning Protection Institute (LPI) is the national organization that leads the way in establishing the highest standards and guidelines for the design, installation, and inspection of lightning ...

Ed Lobnitz, retired principal/senior electrical engineer at TLC Engineering Solutions, wrote the chapter on lightning protection for towers that has appeared in several editions of the NAB Engineering ...

Electronically non-conductive ladder fall protection system makes working on lightning towers at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center safer and more efficient. Launch Complex 39B at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center ...

Lightning protection can be a critical part of any building's infrastructure, providing protection to people and property. When assessing a particular client's degree of risk on a given project, it's ...

They say that lightning doesn't strike the same place twice. Wrong! The Empire State building has been struck thousands of times, so often that it was used as a test object during early lightning ...
