Example: Calculate Whether Lightning Protection is required or not for following Building. Calculate
No of Down Conductor for Lightning Protection
5 0.2
10 0.5
20 1.1
30 1.9
40 2.8
50 3.7
60 4.7
80 6.9
100 9.2
Others 1.2
Calculation:
Application of Structure (A)= Houses & Buildings as per Table Multiplying Factor = 0.3
Type of Constructions (B)= Steel framed encased without Metal Roof as per Table Multiplying
Factor =0.2
Contests or Consequential Effects (C)= Domestic / Office Buildings as per Table Multiplying
Factor =0.3
Degree of Isolation (D)= Structure in a large area having greater height as per Table Multiplying
Factor =0.4
Type of Country (E)= Flat country at any level so as per Table Multiplying Factor =0.3
Overall Multiplying Factor (M) =0.3×0.2×0.3×0.4×0.3
Overall Multiplying Factor (M) =0.00216
If Calculated Overall Risk Factor Calculated > Maximum Acceptable Overall Risk Factor than
only Lighting Protection Required
Here Calculated Overall Risk Factor is 0.000110127 > Max Acceptable Overall Risk Factor is
00000001
Lightning Protection is Required

Maximum Acceptable Overall Risk Factor =0.00000001 value is fixed or may change as par
building type?

Hi Sir, Maximum Acceptable Overall Risk Factor =0.00000001 value is fixed or may changed
according to building type?

before i also put a statement about the equation of voltage drop in wires and asked why we
use (r cos phi + x sin phi ) instead of sqrt (( rcos phi) 2 + ( x sin phi ) 2 ) and still no answer
Reply
in the excel sheet we have from your site as you are the author of it you put the overall risk
factor is .000001 that means only 1 to the power of -6

Dear sir,
1. Can we connect static earthing system and power [electrical] earthing system?
2. Which of the earthing pits [Power, instrument, lightning, static, telecommunication] we can
interconnect without hazard?

Your notes compilation is excellent and I have downloaded that.
However I want to highlight that this calculation as per is 2309 is no longer applicable now
since this IS has become obsolete now. And is replaced by ICE 62305.

Dear Sir,
Thanks for these nice information. Sir, what size of cable must be used if my Down
conductor increases and whether earth pits are required for each DC. And the distance
between these earth pits if applicable.

Sir,
our steel frame with metal roof building Length is 150 mtr, Width is 62 mtr, height is 20 mtr.
i calculate as per above given Example
Down Conductors As per Base Area of Structure (s) =31 No’s
Down Conductors As per Perimeter of Structure (t)= 13 No’s

Dear Sir,
I have a question which is can we use copper dc clip to tighten the aluminium tape on the
wall instead of aluminium dc clip? If can, is there any side affect?
Thank you.
Regards.
