New Functions for Representing IEC 62305 Standard and Other Typical Lightning Stroke Currents

چکیده
New functions for approximating various lightning currents, either measured, assumed or generalized in the standard IEC 62305, are presented in this paper. The channel-base current function and its parameters, as well as analytical expressions of this function derivatives, integrals, and integral transformations are given. Parameters of new functions for representing first stroke currents, subsequent stroke currents, and long stroke currents from the standard IEC 62305 are calculated, so as of two-rise front function typical for experimentally measured first negative stroke currents. Results for lightning electric and magnetic field at different distances from the channel-base obtained by using the proposed function and the Modified transmission line model with exponential decay with height are in good agreement with the results from literature, but any other lightning stroke model can be used as well.

Necessary Separation Distances for Lightning Protection Systems - Iec 62305-3 Revisited
In case of direct lightning strike to a building dangerous sparking may occur between the external lightning protection system and conductive installations inside the building. To avoid such side flashes a minimum separation distance between conductive parts inside the building and the air termination or down conductor system is required. The standard IEC 62305-3 provides formulae to determine ...
متن کاملMagnetic Fields and Induced Voltages in case of a Direct Strike – Comparison of Results obtained from Measurements at a Scaled Building to those of IEC 62305-4
In the paper the results obtained from experiments at a modelled reinforced building in case of a direct lightning strike are compared with calculations. The comparison includes peak values of the magnetic field Hmax, its derivative (dH/dt)max and of induced voltages umax in typical cable routings. The experiments are performed at a 1:6 scaled building and the results are extrapolated using the...
متن کاملClosed-Form Solutions for Broad-Band Equivalent Circuit of Vertical Rod Buried in Lossy Grounds Subjected to Lightning Strokes
Abstract— In this paper, input impedance of a vertical rod under lightning stroke is first computed by applying the method of moments (MoM) on the Maxwell’s equations. The circuit model is then achieved through applying modified vector fitting (MVF) on the computed input impedance. After then the equivalent circuit is again extracted for a few values of soil conductivity and rod radius. Finally...

متن کاملThe Need for an International Standard on Lightning Location Systems
The lightning flash density Ng, so important in Lightning Protection standards for risk assessment calculations, should be replaced by the more suitable lightning strike-point density Nsg. A factor 2 is proposed to relate Ng to Nsg. More precise Ng values should occur from Lightning Location Systems (LLS), while improving their detection efficiency, location accuracy, and classification accurac...
