4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Lightning Protection Maintenance for External Cabinets of Chemical Plant Users"

Does lightning protection system improve grounding system of a petrochemical plant?

Abstract: In this study, the lightning protection system and grounding system of one plant of thepetrochemical industry were investigated, evaluated, and improved. The methods used in this studywere rolling sphere and angle protection methods.

Can a lightning protection system be installed near a prilling tower?

The required protection level of the lightning protection system was determined to be4, based on IEC 62305, which would capture the minimum lightning current of 16 kA. Based on the rolling sphere method, the existing LPS installed at the tower near theprilling tower cannot protect it.

Why does a power plant shut down after a lightning strike?

Some unnecessary shutdowns have occurred due to indirect strikes of lightning.Sometimes, the harmony of design between external lightning protection, internallightning protection, and the grounding system is ignored. This can cause serious problems,such as the breakdown of equipment until the plant shuts down.

What are the industrial applications of lightning?

industrial applications. Several studies on the effect of lightning strikes on transmission lines, tall structures,step-voltagestep-voltage phenomena,phenomena, gridgrid oror mesh meshgrounding groundingsystems, systems, andandsubstationssubstationshavehavebeenbeen done [3–8].
