Progression of a stepped leader
 Economic
 $139 Million property damage in
USA
 $40 Million claims to Factory Mutual
 Personal
 Average 70 fatalities
Lightning’s annual cost (USA)
 Surges also cause:
 System down time
 Lost business opportunities
 System unreliability
Less obvious cost of strikes

SPDs act by:
 Diverting surge current to earth
 Clamping output voltage to a
safe level
 Does NOT prevent lightning but
protects against effects

• Why install SPDs?
– High likelihood of lightning induced
transients
– Combustible gases present
– Uncontrolled flashover may cause
ignition

Divert current as soon as possible
Use dedicated low impedance connection
Make sure other systems are bonded to it,
once!
Convert series-mode current into commonmode voltage
Grounding for Lightning Protection - Principles

 Mains Protective Earth
 Essential for personnel safety
 Carries leakage currents
 Surge Protective Earth
 Must be able to carry huge currents
 Low voltage drop
