Bangladesh faces one of the world's most severe lightning threats, particularly during the pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons. With thousands of strikes recorded annually, lightning is not just a natural phenomenon; it's a major cause of casualties, property damage, and power grid disruption. Standard of lightning protection system is necessary because lightning can harm people by...
The conventional lightning protection system represents a time-tested approach to fortifying structures against the formidable forces of lightning strikes. Comprising a well-coordinated ensemble of components, this system is designed to efficiently intercept, channel, and disperse the powerful electrical currents associated with lightning, minimizing the potential for damage and harm. At the heart of this system are...
A conventional LPS (lightning protection system) refers to a traditional or standard approach to protecting a building or structure from lightning strikes. It typically consists of a set of components designed to intercept, conduct, and safely dissipate the electrical current of a lightning strike. A lightning protection system is a set of components and equipment that...
IEC 62305 is a series of international standards developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that provides guidelines and requirements for the design, installation, and maintenance of lightning protection systems. The series consists of several parts that cover different aspects of lightning protection. Here are the main parts of IEC 62305: IEC 62305-1: General...
Lightning is a natural phenomena nowadays in Bangladesh Lightning and its damages is increasing day by day. To protect the structure against lightning strike we need to install Lightning Protection System (LPS). It is designed for not only protect the structure but also minimize the life risk due to lightning strike. ABB Lightning Protection System...
