Destructive Lightning
Lightning, an universal, permanent and natural phenomenon, causes considerable damages every year. It costs billions of euros to a countrys economy, and kills thousand of persons. It is enough destructive in all over the world to concern everybody, all the countries, regions and fields of activities. With the coming of high technologies, the omnipresence of components more and more sensitive and expensive equipment, protect ourselves against the devastating effects of Lightning, is an evident priority and Franklin France a partner wishful to be.
The obtaining of Qualifoudre reference frame in 2005, shows the quality of the services in 4 fields: Studies, Manufacture, Installation and Checking and this, whatever the level of complexity: Simple cases, intermediates and complexes.

Discharge phenomenon
From the cloud base, generally negatively charged, a low luminosity discharge known as the tracer, is released. This makes its way to the ground in leaps of some tens of meters. As it approaches the ground, the highly charged tip of the tracer causes the electric field vertically below it to increase considerably. At about 200 m from the ground, jets of charges or "streamers" are released at points highly prone to lightning where the electrical field is the more intense (tree tops, chimneys, lightning conductors, ). The jet is transformed into a positive upward discharge which goes to meet the dart leader. The streamer with the best triggering characteristics and which travels most quickly, will reach the leader and provides the electrical junction cloud-ground with the formation of an ionized channel. This favoured way causes strong electrical discharge of several amperes named "return stroke". Within the space of 0.2 s to 1 s, several lightning strokes may be exchanged in continuous progression and at a very high propagation speed.

Luminous effects
The ionization of the air produced by the lightning current provokes numerous luminous particles, or "photons". It can create an image on the observers retina which may leave him dazzled for several seconds before regaining his sight.
V2 C2 V1
Acoustic effects
The current of lightning is at the origin of enormous electro dynamic forces, which result in a strong rise, in the pressure of the air (2 to 3 atmospheres) in the outfall channel. The shock wave created or "thunder" can be heard at many kilometres from the impact point, like rumbling or crackling sounds, according to spectral distribution and position of the observer.
Electrodynamic effects
Close to the path of lightning current, appears a strong magnetic field creating voltages and induction current on all conducting elements situated in its sudden action field. The mechanical forces induced can provoke deformation, twisting, and destruction, ...
Electrocution effects
As the path of the lightning current can provoke death, the dispersion of lightning current in heterogeneous soils can create potential differences dangerous to all live animals and people (pace voltage). These can provoke burns or heart attacks and respiratory problems.
Thermal effects
Thermal effects or "Joule effect" can create at the impact point the melting of the materials and even their destruction by explosion when it presents a high humidity rate or causes fires to start.
Electrochemical effects
These effects are caused by the chemical decomposition of the materials by electrolytic reactions. Although very negligible and without effect compared to stray currents in the soil, it appears mainly at the earthing systems level.
Overvoltages by conduction
When there is a direct lightning strike on an electrical line or a tower, the current can propagate and reach all the installations distributed by the line, even if they are situated at several kilometres from the impact point. These currents are all the more dangerous as main part of lightning strike energy is "conducted" by the network.
Coupling
Overvoltages by induction
All the metallic elements situated in an area very near a lightning strike act, as antennas, which capture by "induction" the sudden variations of the electromagnetic radiation induced by the lightning. Transient overvoltages and currents appear then, on all the equipment which is connected with it, of which the effects are proportional to the strength and the nearness of the lightning strike. Even if it constitutes a means of protection against the direct impact of the lightning, burying electrical networks does not guarantee their protection.
10
Global approach
A protection is efficient and reliable when all the phenomenons are considered for avoidance: - direct lightning strikes (direct effects), - indirect effects like ground rising conductors, induced currents, - ground defects and establishment of potential differences between points close to the installation. The protection can be done only in the case of the global approach to lightning, which supposes the control of all the stages, such as: - risk assesment, - studies to define protection devices appropriate to each situation and its mode of installation, - protection device installation in compliance to the code of practice and the final use of the installation.
Lightning protection
The lightning protection or the "direct effects" consist in: - capturing the lightning, which constitutes a preferential impact point capture device, natural or specific (Franklin lightning conductor, meshed cage or tight strand), - flowing the lightning current helping its path to earth, - running out the current of the lightning to the ground by ensuring its dispersion in the ground, with an "earth electrode lightning conductor".
Overvoltage protection
The transient overvoltage protection or the " indirect effects" consist in: - preventing the lightning current from reaching the equipment, directing it to the earth, with surge protective devices like a barrage which stops and channels the water flow, - keeping a residual voltage compatible with the protected equipment, - flowing and discharging the current to earth.

Keraunic level Nk
The keraunic level Nk expresses the number of days per year where thunder is heard at a given place.
Lightning density Ng
The Lightning density Ng expresses the number of strikes per year per km2. In France, lightning density values are determined by the "Meteorage storm detecting network. When the density is not known for a given place, it can be found from Nk using the relation
From 0.0 to 0.3 From 0.3 to 0.6 From 0.6 to 0.9 From 0.9 to 1.2 From 1.2 to 1.5 From 1.5 to 1.8 From 1.8 to 2.1 From 2.1 to 2.4 From 2.4 to 2.7 From 2.7 to 3.0

Some parameters of this risk assessment can impose a type of protection or can simply make compulsory the overvoltage protection.
The NFC 15-100 standard requires: to realize an overvoltage protection type 2 if the installation is supplied with an overhead LV network in a area where Nk > 25. to realize a protection type 1 compulsory (I imp. = 12.5 kA min.) for all networks distributing buildings of a protected site against the direct impact of lightning (level of risk 2).

ESE
The ESE Lightning conductor allows then to improve the radius of protection of the simple rod of 1.5 to 3 times. This can be checked by the relation of the NFC 17-102 giving the radius of protection of an ESE Lightning conductor according to the level of protection:
Rp = h (2D - h) + L (2D + L)
Knowing that the radius of protection for a simple rod is expressed:
Rp = h (2D - h)
With D the diameter of the fictive sphere depending on the peak current I of the first arc-back assigned by the level of protection according to the relation:
D = 10 * I2/3

If there are several lightning conductors on the structure, they are connected together, but should not be connected if the connection must clear an obstacle (wall, fire break, parapet wall) with a positive or negative level difference in excess of 1.50 m. The copper down conductors are made of tapes, braids, or round with minimum section of 50 mm2. At the bottom of the down conductor there must be installed a control junction and a 2 meters mechanical protective tube. The exterior metal grounds are connected in equipotential configuration to the lightning conductor circuit according to the safety distances of the NFC 17-100 which also advises the distances to maintain between the down conductors. If a discharge counter is required, it is installed above the control junction.

You can use certain metallic elements of the structure to act as the down conductor if they correspond to the standards NF C 17-100 and NF C 17-102 standards.
For the diverting of down conductors, bends formed edgewise should preferably be used.

When there is a presence of a radio broadcasting receiver antenna, and in compliance to the NFC 90-120 standard, the antenna support mast should be connected through a surge protection device or a spark gap to the down conductors of the installation.
The safety distance is defined in the NF C 17-102 and NF C 17-100 standards with the formula: S(m) = n*(ki / km) * l n: coefficient governed by the number of down conductors interconnected ki: depends on the level of protection km: depends on the material between the two extremities of the loop l: vertical distance between the point where the proximity is taken into account and the earthing system of the mass or equipotential junction.

There are several types of earthing systems which depend mainly on the environment in which they will be installed: Triangulated rods earthing system: it is one of the two earthing systems described in the standard, and uses less flat conductor. Crows foot earthing system: this is the second earthing system described in the standard, it occupies a greater surface area because its 3 horizontal conductors each measures 8 m. Improved crows foot earthing system: the vertical components make it possible to find ground of different natures to reduce the resistance. In-line earthing system: this system is used in conditions where there is a restriction in the area available.

Connection equipment
- The cables should run separate from other conductors, and the earthing system should have the shortest possible route to the equipotentiality bar or the body of the cabinet. - The path of the conductors needs to be optimized, paying attention to the fact that the input wires on the surge protective device be distinct from those of the output. - The output protected by an overvoltage arrester must be taken to the same terminals, on the surge protective device and breaking device installed for end of life protection. - The total length of the connections, breaking device and protection device must not exceed 50 cm.
Earthing system
- Any separate ground connection. - If in an electric board or a cabinet, and if the link to the general ground is too long, an intermediate ground terminal box shall be installed. - One ground connection per building or per protected installation is required. - To optimize the installation, the resistance of this ground connection must be the lowest possible HF impedance. - A check should be made to ensure that there are no connections within the same building or electrical cabinet to separate ground connection distributions with remote equipotentiality devices. All these installation rules are valid for all protections.
24
Some important values: Uc: the maximum voltage under continuous operating conditions. Up: the residual voltage in kV transmitted by the equipment when these protection devices are kept to their nominal current. In: the nominal discharge current. It is the peak value of a current in the 8/20 wave form, flowing in the overvoltage arrester. Iimp: Maximum discharge current in wave 10/350. Un: the nominal operating voltage. It characterizes the simple voltage between phase and neutral. Imax: discharge current that the overvoltage arrester can withstand once.
Rules of installation
- The surge protective device will be inserted in parallel the shortest possible path on the power supply concerned. - In complement of the integrated thermal disconnection, a protection against the short-circuit at the end of life will be installed, upstream of the connection of the surge protective device. The diagram of connection will be given, according to whether the priority is given to the continuity of service or that of protection. - It is possible to obtain at the same time the continuity of service and the continuity of protection, thanks to the use of several identical surge protective devices, assembled in parallel, and equipped each one with a deconnector. - In partnership with the modular surge protective devices, one will choose either of the fuses or of the circuit breaker. This insertion must hold account of the number of poles to protect and the current from possible short-circuit at the point considered. It is obligatory to carry out a protection with surge protective device of the type I in the case or the structure would have a lightning conductor. The section of conductor obligatory for the surge protective devices type 1 is 10 mm2 and 4 mm2 for types 2 and 3.

Strike points
Franklin strike points are designed for use on industrial buildings, residential buildings and private homes. These points are easy to install, gently tapered and entirely conical, lightweight, rugged and attractive. They are available in several dimensions, in nickel/chromium plated copper and stainless steel. Their tips are fitted with a solid point of marine bronze or stainless steel. They are threaded at the base for fixing by stud gun, plug, bolting, on all materials. A fixing bracket, designed for flat and round conductors, is inserted at the fixing point, so that clamping guarantees perfect electrical continuity. An added advantage is the possibility of creating a cable path without taking account of the point positions. These can be determined subsequently, and points can be added or removed without any difficulty.

Ground coil
This coil is installed in series on the equipotential link between two earthing systems. For example, between the lightning conductor's earthing and the mass grounding. It increases the impedance of the connection which, on a short connection, reduces the shock effect and energy transmission to the electrical distribution, without compromising equipotentiality. This device, which presents no danger to personal safety, complies with standards NF C 15-100, NF C 17-100 and NF C 17-102. The coil is connected as close as possible to the mass ground (wall or inspection pit). Inductance: 20 H / 10 MHz Wire cross-section: 25 mm2 (flexible) Continuous resistance: 1.5 m Maximum continuous intensity: 100 A

Purpose
The induced currents are diverted to the earth before they can reach the equipment connected to the downstream power network while the overvoltages are kept to a harmless level and the equipment running in total transparency for the user.
Application
These devices are recommended for protecting any equipment connected to main power supplies in the case of domestic and industrial installations. The selection of the products type is done taking into account the exposition degree to lightning of the area (NFC 17-100 or IEC 364 and IEC 61643-1), installation in isolated or metropolitan area, cost and sensitive level of the equipment to protect, the neutral earthing system, the installation mode.
Installation
They are installed in parallel with the mains in association to a circuit breaker against short circuits (mandatory only if not already provided by mains or when the upstream circuit breaker is not adapted, NFC 61-740 and 15-100 or IEC 61643-1 and IEC 60364). Earthing is mandatory and it is done according to the rule of the shortest possible path (all earth conductors must be interconnected IEC 61312). Installation of a remote control system coupled to the circuit breaker or to the overvoltage protection with an overvoltage controller is recommended to secure the overall installation.

Overvoltage products
Surge suppressers (Up 100 V) 40 kA protection - 230/400 V~ Comply with EN 60950 standard Description
Strategic installations need specific protections with very high performances able to simultaneous absorb very high energies with voltages ranging up to thousands of volts and to let go through towards the equipment to protect very low residual overvoltages (< 100 V). The surge suppresser combines both functions together with continuous servicing of the installation even after discharges with very high energies such as direct lightning discharges. The product is dedicated for protecting equipment such as: - telecommunications and radio-communications centres, Hertzian relays, - Main distribution cabinets of automotive systems, computer centres, ) - very sensitive isolated systems
Strategic networks
The operating principle of the product is based on cascade association of 3 subsystems with different protecting modes, each of them being especially relevant and conferring to the surge suppresser a maximum reliability and improved performances relatively to standard protective devices: - a primary protection level based on the parallel association of high energy varistors which absorb most of the energy of the discharge, the energy being transferred to the earthing system. This 1st level of protection is redundant (double protection conferring a maximum reliability to the surge suppresser) and each active conductor is protected by varistors mounted in between the active conductors and the earth (common protection mode). - A 1/1 screening transformer as the secondary protection stage especially designed for suppressing surge overvoltages (transients) transferred down through the varistors stages. - a capacitive stage (third protection stage) absorbing the residual energy and spikes transmitted at the output of the screening transformer. The surge suppresser is installed in series with the power line of the installation to protect. Circuit breakers protect the input and the output of the suppresser itself (protection of the transformer mainly) and the overall installation located downstream, these circuit breakers being especially calibrated and adapted to each particular application (single or three phase power network, differential current device at the output for TT or TN-S systems, ). Normal operation of the product with no load and up to its maximum capacity shows very little in line energy losses and almost no current/voltage phase shift (cos j 0.95).

Purpose
The induced current is diverted to the earth before it can reach the equipment connected to the network while the overvoltage is kept to a harmless level and the equipment running. These devices do not alter in any significant way the characteristics of the lines.
Applications
The Coaxstops are recommended for protecting any equipment connected to coaxial networks such as in the case of GSM applications, satellite and TV transmission/reception, UHF data transmissions systems, video units, microwave relays The user will verify proper fitting of the products rated maximum power with the networks maximum power, and when applicable, that the DC voltage transmitted by the network is lower than the static (DC) spark-over voltage of the protection (90 V or 1000 V in the case of the spark gap based protections). The other protections are recommended for the protection of the equipments linked to Telecom networks or datas transmission such as telephone exchange systems, terminals, solar energy, automation, robotic, computer and Ethernet equipments, RNIS, alarms, telephone answering machine, modems, fax, telex, specialized lines or current loop. For these protections, the user will check that the maximal voltage transferred by the network in permanent system is not superior to the threshold voltage specified of the protection, and that the operating intensity of the line is compatible with the maximum intensity of the surge protective device operating.
Installation
These protections are inserted in series with the coaxial lines and located nearby (upstream and as close as possible) to the equipment to be protected. It will be connected to the earth according to the rule of the shortest possible path (all earth conductors must be interconnected). The end of life of these protection is reported as the loss of the signal or as communication interruption, and it will be replaced automatically.

Description
The AST4000CC range of overvoltage protections is designed to protect communication and data transmission lines against lightning induced surges and interference. These protections are installed in series with the network and end up after total failure in a short circuit, meaning the communication is interrupted. They consist of a multi-level protection that enables to get fast operation and low residual ("let through") overvoltages (2nd protection stage based on very fast diodes), this along with a high derivation capacity of transients that is achieved using gas arrestors (1st stage). Protections available for the following working voltages: 6, 12, 24, 48 or 170 V. Although inserted in series with the network, the AST4007CC product is a parallel protection based on gas arrestors only (i.e with a 0 impedance) and dedicated for large bandwidth applications at very high frequencies.

Operating principle
In order to ensure a maximal safety of the persons and properties, one only test of re-interlocking is done in case of frank defect (short-circuit or insulation defect). If the defect goes on, the line is disconnected (putting in defect). In case of furtive defects, 3 tests of re-interlocking are done before the putting in defect of the line, a reset being insured after 5 mn without defect. After all putting in defect of the line, the defect must be found and eliminated before putting on service again the product. In case of under-tension or overvoltage of the specified threshold (180 V and 260 V), the re-interlocking of the circuit breaker is automatic as soon as the tension is restored.
