How to View the Importance of Lightning Strikes and Surges to Systems?

    The impact of lightning strikes and power surges is an important risk factor that is often overlooked. Without preventive measures, it can lead to serious consequences such as fires, shutdown of important equipment, and misoperation. Therefore, lightning strikes and surge protection measures are an important component of safety plans, as modern society is a large entity that collaborates and cooperates with each other.

The early stages of project planning should take into account lightning strikes and surge protection, making early implementation much easier. The subsequent renovation will be difficult to achieve and involve very high costs of talent, capital, and time.

IEC 62305-2 specifies risk analysis methods, and forward-looking risk assessment reports will help investors make more accurate and reasonable decisions. Efficiently control predictable risks.

National standards GB 50057 "Code for Design of Lightning Protection of Buildings"/GB 50343 "Technical Code for Lightning Protection of Building Electronic Information Systems"

IEC 62305/GB/T 21714 is the selection of lightning and surge protection schemes and shielding measures that comply with the standards. In terms of system planning, preventing property damage and endangering human life is considered to be people-oriented, and there are more factors, such as avoiding electrical and electronic system failures, which are also important,

So large enterprises or government project evaluations attach great importance to Part 4 of IEC 62305/GB/T 21714!

In summary, it can be seen from the standard requirements that lightning protection design is crucial, and risk assessment must be conducted in the early stages of project implementation!
