If the communication cable located inside the mag-
netic field electrical conductor, interference
voltage can induced.
Basic principle induction:
Current (I) flowing through electrical conductor
generates magnetic field all around it.

However, not only lightning current that can in-
duce interference voltages; any electrical cable carry-
ing current can this. The magnitude the in-
duced voltage varies depending the size the
magnetic field and the conductor loop inside the
magnetic field. The induced surge
voltages have the waveform 8/20 μs. The energy level
is lower than the case the 10/350 pulse. The magnitude the interfer-
ence voltage induced the communication cable de-
