One of the topics concerning the electromagnetic compatibility of modern electronic circuits is to take protection from transient overvoltages caused by not only cloud-to-ground lightnings but also induced lightning discharges. In this paper, the vertical electric and horizontal magnetic fields from cloud-to-ground lightnings were measured and analyzed. The electric and magnetic fields waveforms associated with cloud-to-ground lightnings have several subsidiary peaks which decrease with time. There were not much differences between the electric and magnetic field due to long distance cloud-to-ground discharges. Average values of 10~90% rise times of electric fields are $4.65mutextrm{s}$ for the positive cloud-to-ground lightning and $3.29mutextrm{s}$ for the negative cloud-to-ground lightning, respectively. Also, in the positive and negative cloud-to-ground lightning discharges, the zero-to-zero crossing times in the wave tail of magnetic fields are significantly longer than those of the electric fields.

Lightning protective design of an aircraft fuel system is closely related to the safety of the flight. Recently, composite material in building an aircraft becomes more important because it can reduce the weight of the aircraft. The composite materials decrease the protection against the effect of lightning. Lightning protective design of metal material aircraft has been researched for a long time and the design technique has been announced widely. However, research on the lightning protective design using composite material aircraft is very limited. In this study, lightning protective design for fuel tank structural component, access cover, fuel filler cap and drain valve in carbon fiber composite material aircraft have been presented. To show the compliance with FAA airworthiness standard regarding the presented protection designs, three steps, including lightning strike analysis, lightning environment analysis and certification test, were conducted in accordance with FAA AC 20-53.

the# star city 신축공사는 철골(판매시설), 철근콘크리트(주거시설)가 병행, 시공되고 대지와의 접촉면이 큰 고층 건축물로 각종의 다양한 전기, 전자, 통신설비 기기가 도입되고 있어 문제가 되는 것이 접지의 시공법이다. 건축물에 있어서 뇌보호란 크게 외부 뇌보호와 내부 뇌보호로 나눌 수 있으며 외부 뇌보호는 직격뢰로 부터 건물등을 보호하는 것이고 내부 뇌보호는 낙뢰시 전위상승으로 인한 영향 및 뇌전류의 전자효과를 저감하는 것으로 특히 과전압 내성이 작은 전자기기 등을 대상으로 하는 보호이다.

Among the failures of photovoltaic power generation facilities, failures caused by surges account for 20% of the total failure rate, and energy emissions of tens to hundreds [A] during power generation and electrical damage to inverters and connection boards lead to electrical safety accidents. In particular, in the case of lightning, an abnormal voltage is induced in an electric circuit to destroy insulation, and the current flowing at this time causes a fire and acts as a factor that accelerates the deterioration of parts. Due to this action, the problem of electrical safety of solar power generation devices spreading from outside the city center to the inside of the city center such as houses, apartments, and government offices is emerging. Since lightning strikes cause both field-based and conducted electrical interference, this effect increases with increasing cable length or conductor loops. In addition, surge damages not only solar modules, inverters and monitoring devices, but also building facilities, which can eventually cause operational shutdown due to fire of the photovoltaic power generation system and consequent financial loss. Therefore, in this paper, a lightning protection system for solar power generation devices is studied for the purpose of reducing property damage and human casualties due to the increase in fire and electrical safety accidents caused by lightning strikes in photovoltaic power generation systems.

Lightning causes physical damage to aircraft, such as melting, burning and arcing, and magnetic field that occurs on the aircraft's outer body during the penetration of a lightning stroke causes voltage and current transients in the electronics and wiring within the aircraft. This effect will cause induced lightning strikes in the aircraft's internal airborne electronic systems, preventing safe flight. This paper introduces protection circuit design techniques, and the test results that meet the requirements for certification of criteria.

Signalling equipments at railroad sites are widely exposed to high voltage lightning surges. This paper presents a lightning protection system for the signalling equipments at subway car depots. The main features of the system are as follows : (1)the common grounding system between power system grounds and the signaling system grounds, (2)physical and chemical methods to reduce grounding resistivity, (3)rearrangement of lightning rods based on the rolling bal1 theory, (4)equi-potential bonding networks to minimize the potential differences between the equipments grounds. The system has been constructed at six subway car depots in Seoul metropolitan area and it is measured that the grounding resistivity are reduced to 0.266 ohms and the potential differences between devices are reduced to a negligible quantity. After the construction of the systems, it has not been reported the break-down of the signalling equipments caused by lighting surges.

The outages of transmission lines give big damages to the industrial world Lightning outages occupy above 50[%] among the outages of transmission lines. To decrease the lightning outage rates, it is necessary to try countermeasures considering economical points. For the lightning protection of power transmission lines, it is very important to accurately predict the lightning outage rate because the reliability criterion for transmission line is normally specified as the number of flashovers per 100[km] per year. The phenomenon of an insulator flashover by a lightning stroke is a very complex electromagnetic event. And to calculate the lightning outage rates of transmission lines, so many calculation should be repeated because there are many overhead lines and power lines. Therefore it is necessary to develope a program for it. In this paper, we briefly introduce the basic concept for lightning outage calculation algorithm and the program.

현대 산업에서 정밀기기와 정보기기의 사용이 증가되면서 전력품질의 중요성이 강조되고 있다. 또한 건축물 뇌 보호 관련 규정이 KS C IEC 62305로 개정피면서 선택사항에 불과했던 내부 뇌 보호 시스템 서지보호기(SPD)의 설치가 의무화 되었다. 그런대 사용자들이 실제 이용하고 있는 서지보호기를 현장에 적용하였을 때 많은 문제점이 드러났다. 첫째, 서지보호기를 설치 후 제대로 작동 하는지 동작 상태를 파악할 수 없고 단지 낙뢰가 몇 번 유입되었는지의 카운터 기능의 시각적 판단만 가능하다. 또한 시간이 지나면서 서지보호기의 특성 변화 파악이 불가능하다. 설치 후 제 성능은 얼마나 발휘하는 가를 알 수 없고 LAMP에 의해 SPD의 소손 여부만을 판단할 수 있어 SPD의 교체시기를 알 수 없다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 서지보호기에 유입되는 서지크기, 유입경로 및 횟수를 통한 서지의호소자의 성능에 대한 대책 마련을 가능케 하여 바람직한 서지보호 및 적용이 가능토록 하고자 한다.

철탑, 건물 또는 피뢰침에 낙뢰가 들어오게 되면 그 접지극 부근의 대지전위가 상승하고 다른 접지극에서 기기로 뇌 써지가 역류하기도 하고 피뢰기와 보호소자를 역섬락시켜 배전선측, 통신선측으로 뇌 써지가 흐른다. 한편 철탑이 건물의 옥상에 있는 경우는 피뢰침이 건물의 철골, 철근과 연결되어 있으므로 뇌써지는 건물에도 흐르고 그것도 접속되어 있는 기기의 지지물을 통하여 다른 접지계통에 유입된다.
