Lightning protection
« on: August 15, 2014, 01:45:09 PM »
Anyone rhyme off the standard used for testing and maintenance of lightning protection please? I presume it is essentially a continuity and resistance test along with an examination of the physical condition of the hardware.

Try BS 6651 or BS EN 62305. The test results I have seen usually show the resistance of the system and I assume there is a maximum threshold.
The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to those who think they've found it.
