LIGHTNING STUDY (RISK ASSESSMENT) REPORT ON LIGHTNING PROTECTION
1. Introduction
Lightning protection study is a highly site specific, with many design unique to individual
facilities and structures. Mitigation of the effects of lightning strike is attempted through the
deployment of a combination of exterior and interior defenses. The dangerous effects of
strikes to a housing scheme building can include damage in sophisticated electronic
equipment and life loss.
There are no devices and methods capable of preventing for lightning discharges. The type
of damage depends on the position of the point of the strike, on its characteristic and
systems involved. The occurrences, which are caused by lightning, can threat people, critical
structures, and internal electrical and electronic systems due to electromagnetic effects of
lightning current, so that the selection of adequate protection measures has a high priority.
2. Objectives
The objective of this lightning protection study is to;
Risk assessment to the site to identify required protection level.
3. Standards
This document refers to the following standards:
EN 62305-1: "Protection against lightning. Part 1: General principles";
EN 62305-2: "Protection against lightning. Part 2: Risk assessment";
EN 62305-3: "Protection against lightning. Part 3: Physical damage to structures and
life hazards";
EN 62305-4: "Protection against lightning. Part 4: Electrical and electronic systems
within structures";
4. Parameters of lightning current
The most important parameters for the purpose of designing protection systems are peak
value of the strike and the lighting density of the area. In the area of Borella (Colombo), the
isokeraounic level is well above 90 and nearly 100 days (fig:01). The peak current is at
average of 36kA. [The data is from Activity of cloud-to-ground lightning observed in Sri
Lanka and in surrounding area of the Indian Ocean by A. B. Weerasekera, D. U. J.
Sonnadara, I. M. K. Fernando, J.P. Liyanage, R. Lelwala and T. R. Ariyaratne]

structure and also LPS, equipotential bonding and Coordinated SPD protection is proposed
to bring down the level of risk below the tolerable value.
