Lightning protection is a complex issue that requires a comprehensive approach; by addressing the various factors that may lead to lightning strikes, it is possible to minimize the threat posed by lightning. It is necessary to take into account the hazards to electronic equipment caused by direct lightning strikes, induced lightning, and lightning electromagnetic pulses (LEMP). Lightning wave intrusion refers to the effect of lightning on overhead lines or metal conduits, with the resulting overvoltage waves entering buildings along these conduits, causing equipment damage and posing a threat to human safety. Through the above introduction, you should now understand the necessity of lightning protection projects If you are not very familiar with it, you can consult a technical specialist; they will give you a satisfactory answer.
