Our website has a wealth of information on lightning protection and grounding, including solutions for common projects, a calculator a calculator for self-calculation of lightning protection reliability, and articles by Professor Eduard Meerovich Bazelian. All of these materials include technical specification requirements as well as examples to assist designers and installers with their work. To decrease or eliminate errors in design and installation, it is useful not only to describe the correct design but also to provide examples of common mistakes made by specialists.
Two years ago, the article "Worst Lightning Protection Ever" by Eduard Meerovich Bazelyan's was published on our website.
The material offers a collection of common misunderstandings resulting from years of design work by many specialists.
The article is divided into three sections that discuss the components of lightning protection: lightning protection systems, current collectors, and grounding arrangements. Each section includes examples of bloopers, blunders, and inaccurate expert judgments that the professor encountered while working.
