The radio engineer does his best to prevent its intrusion into his equipment, but having a steel structure extending from 150 feet to 1,000 feet in the air invites lightning strikes. Nevertheless, ...

Lightning protection in photovoltaic (PV) systems is a critical area of study as these installations are increasingly exposed to atmospheric discharges that can substantially disrupt energy production ...

Every year I spend the holidays with my mother in Wisconsin. Each time I’m there, I look outside her living room window and see the lightning protection rod on the roof of the house across the street.

Residential PV systems are generally installed on the rooftop of residential buildings, with a large metal surface area, higher distance from the ground and an exposed location. Such PV systems are ...

As the use of carbon fibre composites increases in aircraft manufacturing, so does the need for EMI shielding and lightning strike protection [1-4]. Lightning strike protection usually takes the form ...
