Various sources of damage, e.g., a direct lightning strike in the building, come into focus, as do the types of damage resulting from this:\r\n\r\n\u2022 Impact on health or loss of life\r\n\r\n\u2022 Loss of technical services for the public\r\n\r\n\u2022 Loss of irreplaceable objects of cultural significance\r\n\r\n\u2022 Financial losses\r\n\r\nThe financial benefits are determined as follows: how does the annual total cost for a lightning protection system compare to the costs of potential damage without a protection system? The cost evaluation is based on the outgoings for the planning, assembly, and maintenance of the lightning protection system.\r\n\r\nParts 3 and 4: Planning aids and specifications\r\n\r\nIf the risk assessment determines that lightning protection is required and cost-effective, then the type and scope of the specific measures for protection can be planned based on Parts 3 [3] and 4 [4] of this standard. The lightning protection level determined by risk management is decisive for determining the type and scope of the measures.\r\n\r\nFor physical structures that require an extremely high level of safety, almost all strikes must be captured and conducted away safely. For systems where a higher residual risk is acceptable, strikes with lower amplitudes are not captured.\r\n\r\n<strong>Protection contre les surtensions selon CEI 60364-4-44<\/strong>\r\n\r\nThis standard [5] describes the conditions in which surge protective devices are to be used in low-voltage systems to protect the electrical installation against surge voltages. The area of application is thereby limited to surge voltages caused by atmospheric influences or as a consequence of switching procedures that are transmitted by the power supply system. Direct lightning strikes in a structural system are not considered, only strikes in or in the vicinity of supply lines.\r\n\r\nLikewise, structural systems with an explosion risk as well as structural applications that could cause damage to the environment (e.g., petrochemical systems or nuclear power plants) are not included in the application of the standard. For these processes, lightning strike standard IEC 62305 is to be used exclusively.\r\n\r\nSurge protective devices should be used if transient overvoltage could have effects on the following:\r\n\r\n\u2022 Human lives, e.g., safety systems, hospitals\r\n\r\n\u2022 Public and cultural institutions, e.g., loss of public services, IT centers, museums\r\n\r\n\u2022 Industrial or business activities, e.g., hotels, banks, production systems, farms.\r\n\r\n<strong>Mesures et \u00e9quipements de protection de base<\/strong>\r\n\r\nIn order to consistently protect a structural system from lightning strikes and surge voltages, various protective measures or equipment that are tailored to one another are required.
