Can a mobile telecommunications system be included in a lightning protection system?

Installations such as mobile telecommunications sys- tems must be included in the lightning protection con- cept, particularly in the case of refitting work. Spatial restrictions, as well as the influence of trans- mission signals, can be overcome by constructing the lightning protection system using an isCon® con- ductor.

Why is a mounting system connected to an external lightning protection system?

If the mounting system is directly connected to the external lightning protection system due to the fact that the separa-tion distance s cannot be maintained, these conductors be-come part of the lightning equipotential bonding system. Consequently, these elements must be capable of carrying lightning currents.
