Danger: direct lightning strike
S1: Direct lightning strike into building
If lightning strike hits the external lightning protection

lightning current (e.
But lightning protection system alone not enough:
due its impedance, the building's entire earthing

If lightning strike hits the external
lightning protection system or
earthed roof structures capable of
carrying lightning current, the light-
ning energy can safely dis-
charged earth potential. The lightning protection system protects
the building and people from direct lightning impulses
and fires. This potential in-
crease causes transmission the lightning current
over the building's earthing system and also over the
power supply systems and data cables the adja-
cent earthing systems (adjacent building, low-voltage
transformer)
