Few Facts About the Lightning Event
• Typically, more than 2,000 thunderstorms are active throughout the world at any given moment producing on the order of 100 flashes per second. As our society b d d dbecomes more dependent upon computers and information/communications networks, protection from system disruptions becomes essentials.
• During fair weather, a potential difference of 200,000 to 500,000 Volts exists between the earth surface and ionosphere In a lightning event this potential will beionosphere. In a lightning event this potential will be responsible for lightning discharge currents of up to 100,000 Ampere.
• The average length and duration of each lightning stroke vary, but typically average about 30 microseconds producing average peak power per stroke of about 1 (one) T illi WTrillion Watts.
• The temperature along the lightning channel (flash) during the electrical discharge is in the order of 20,000 degrees Celsius (three time the temperature of the surface of the Sun)
• Wireless networks rely on communication towers for its• Wireless networks rely on communication towers for its transmission of Radio Frequency putting them statistically in a very high exposure zone. Average communication site in Florida, during thunderstorm season, will be exposed to 18 to 20 lightning strikes a year.

The Lightning Event
The lower part of a thundercloud is usually negatively charged. The upward area is usually positively charged. Lightning from the negatively charged area of the cloud generally carries a negative charge to Earth and is called a negative flash. A discharge from a positively-charged area to Earth produces a positive flash

Distributed Voltage across mast 360kV would arise at the top of a 40µH mast
with a relatively small 18 kA w/ a 2µS risetimestrike . The voltage would be distributed downthe mast to ground. If the cable shields werebonded to the mast at the 8 foot level, about28kV would be riding on shields going to theentrance panel
Peak Voltage on Cable Shields ~ 28kV going to entrance panel
