Protection against lightning - Part 4: Electrical and electronic systems within structures

inactive
Organization: CENELEC
Publication Date: 1 February 2011
Status: inactive
Page Count: 94
ICS Code (Lightning protection): 91.120.40
ICS Code (Electrical engineering in general): 29.020
scope:

This part of IEC 62305 provides information for the design, installation, inspection, maintenance and testing of electrical and electronic system protection (SPM) to reduce the risk of permanent failures due to lightning electromagnetic impulse (LEMP) within a structure.

This standard does not cover protection against electromagnetic interference due to lightning, which may cause malfunctioning of internal systems. However, the information reported in Annex A can also be used to evaluate such disturbances. Protection measures against electromagnetic interference are covered in IEC 60364-4-44 [1] 1 and in the IEC 61000 series [2].

This standard provides guidelines for cooperation between the designer of the electrical and electronic system, and the designer of the protection measures, in an attempt to achieve optimum protection effectiveness.

This standard does not deal with detailed design of the electrical and electronic systems themselves.
