4.6 Protection circuit
Only effective protection circuit providing uninter-
rupted surge protection can prevent dangerous poten-
tial differences devices/systems.2.
3.2.3. Suitable protection concepts must agreed
upon jointly planners, lightning protection engin-
eers, electricians and the operator/client. struc-
tural fire safety must taken into account and
tailored one another right from the planning stage.1 Installation with residual current devices
(RCDs)
For fraction second, surge protection devices
generate all-pole equipotential bonding. Here, the three ex-
ternal conductors are connected the neutral wire
via the surge arrestors and insulating N-PE spark
gap used the earthing line. The stipula-
tions insurance companies and network operators
should also taken into account.3.2.4 Versions
In building structures and electrical systems, meas-
ures for lightning and surge protection and e.g. When implement-
ing surge protection concept necessary ob-
tain information the devices and system compon-
ents protected and, where possible, gather them
into lightning protection zones (LPZs). ensure
maximum availability, surge arrestors must fitted
upstream the RCDs. this way, the surge current
is arrested earth first, preventing accidental tripping
of the RCD.

The cables must incorporated into the local equi-

able arrestors.
Protection circuit around electronic device
Circuits that need incorporated into the equipo-
tential bonding system:
• Power supply lines
• Network and data cables
• Telecommunications cables
• Antenna cables
• Control cables
• Metallic pipes
(e. the surge arrestor
can only fitted after the RCD, surge-current-proof
RCD must used.
Requirements laws such the German state build-
ing regulations and the current standards must ob-
served. According IEC 60364-5-53, use up-
stream RCD the network only permitted
in the case the circuit”. The best lightning and surge protection

cluded the protection concept
