Reference [1] describes a process for the design of lightning protection that transforms the transient experienced by the components during the lightning test transient into the reference transients ...

Most boats and ships usually ride out a thunderstorm and the high winds, tornados, hail, and floods it can produce. But the ESD event called lightning that it creates is a very different situation.

As the world innovates to become more sustainable and electrified, the demand for renewable energy generation grows. Wind energy has become key in increasing the renewable energy generation mix of ...

US FAA officials intend to issue a “special condition” providing clarification of the lightning protection requirements that must be complied with before Boeing’s 787 can be certified. The airframer ...

Airbus has affirmed that it made modifications to its flagship aircraft, A350 wide-body aircraft, at a time when it was ...

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 ...

The DEHNventil(r) M from DEHN UK LTD. is a range of combined lightning-current and surge arresters based on a modular concept for ease of installation. Designed for 'all in one' installation, ...
