An article titled "Lightning Protection of Equipment on Roofs of High-Rise Buildings".
With the growth of high-rise construction, roofs arebeing transformed into technological platforms hosting multiple vulnerable systems: ventilation, antennas, solar panels, and security systems. All of these require reliable lightning protection—not only from direct strikes but also from secondary effects: overvoltages and induced impulses.
The article examines key aspects of designing effective equipment protection on roofs:
- Which regulatory documents govern lightning protection;
- How to select the type of lightning receptor and calculate protection zones;
- When natural building elements can be used;
- Why internal protection (SPD) is important;
- How to reduce the height of receptors using statistical methods without loss of reliability.
