Design Example for the Railroad Depot Lightning Protection

The ZANDZ Technical Center has received the task to develop detailed design for the lightning protection system for the train depot using lightning wire as a lightning arrester and considering that no equipment is installed on the roof.

We are happy to share our experience of developing detailed design for the lightning protection of the train depot that can be used when necessary.

A key point of this design is the use of durable lightning protection materials: copper-plated wire and copper-plated grounding materials.

The article includes a detailed design in dwg and pdf that can be used as an example in developing and executing a solution on your own.

Study the design to know more about how to provide the lightning protection for a depot station and improve safety of power supply facilities.

Over 30 examples of lightning protection and grounding designs for various buildings and structures are provided in a special page for designers!
