Introduction to lightning and overvoltage protection
Overvoltage destroys a considerable number of electrical and electronic devices and units. And the damage is not limited to just industrial and commercial facilities. Building management systems as well as household appliances for daily use are also affected.
Without effective protection against overvoltage there is a real risk of costly repairs or replacement purchases due to the dam-age done to equipment.
Listed below are units from various sectors which have sensitive electronic circuitry and are frequently destroyed by overvoltage. Clearly, protective measures for preventing overvoltage-related damage are just as important to private households as for the commercial and industrial sectors. An effective overvoltage pro-tection concept for building management systems covers power supply, telephone, aerial/reception, data processing and control systems. What is important is that all the cables connected to a device are linked to a suitable surge arrester. Nearly all devices have a power supply. A television set, for example, also needs a reception signal which is supplied over an aerial cable. And re-gardless of whether the signal comes from an aerial or a wide band cable, both the aerial input and power supply to the televi-sion set should be protected. The need for such consistent all-round protection applies equally to all other devices and units.
Building management systems and industry• Heating controls• Outdoor lighting• Shutter controls• Garage door actuators• Central I&C• Air conditioning• Alarm systems• Fire alarms• Video surveillance• Process computers
Office equipment• Computers• Printers• Telecommunication systems• Fax machines• Copying machines
Private households• Dishwashers• Automatic washing machines• Clothes dryers• Coffee-makers• Radio alarm clocks• Refrigerators• Deep-freezers• Microwave ovens• Electric cookers• Telephone systems
Hobbies and leisure• Television sets• Aerial amplifiers• Video recorders• DVD players• Hifi systems• Computers• Electrical musical instruments• CB radio systems
In relation to the total value of the equipment concerned, the cost of installing suitable protective devices usually pays for itself when just a single unit of electrical equipment is saved just once from destruction . Provided the performance parameters are not exceeded, surge suppressors work many times, thus increasing the benefits for the user several-fold.
The comprehensive surge protection concept
FundamentalsTransient overvoltage results from lightning discharges, switch-ing operations in electrical circuits and electrostatic discharges. Without the protection provided by lightning arresters and over-voltage protection equipment, even the robustly constructed low-voltage supply systems of buildings or industrial plants are unable to cope with a lightning discharge. The overvoltage occurs only very briefly for millionths of a second. Nevertheless, the mostly very high voltages involved are capable of destroying electronic circuitry or the insulation between the conductors on printed circuit-boards. And even if an electrical or electronic device has passed the voltage withstand test according to IEC 100045, as required for being awarded the CE symbol, it is still not in a position to withstand unscathed all environmental influences with regard to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). To prevent the destruction of electrical equipment by overvolt-age, all endangered interfaces such as signal inputs and power supplies must be connected to overvoltage protection equip-ment. What is needed, depending on the case of application, are components such as spark gaps, gas-filled surge arresters, varistors and suppressor diodes, which because of the differ-ences in their arresting and limiting specifications are arranged singly or as combinations in a protection circuit.
The following damage can be caused by overvoltageOvervoltage endangers and destroys a considerable number of electrical and electronic installations. In the last few years there has been a sharp increase in the frequency of incidents and the total costs of the damage incurred. The statistics published by property insurance companies have a clear tale to tell. Damage to devices and their destruction occur all the more often when devices need to be in permanent standby.Repairs and replacement purchases are not the only expense factor, however. Costs also arise through not being able to use the affected system components and possibly even through loss of software and data. The damage profiles generally cover everything from destroyed cables, printed circuit-boards and switching devices to substantial mechanical destruction of the building installations. This damage can be reliably prevented by lightning arresters, surge suppressors and arrester combina-tions.

Lightning and overvoltage protection – WHY?Powerful information systems form the backbone of our modern industrial society. A fault or the failure of these types of systems can have far-reaching consequences. These can even cause service and industry companies to go bankrupt.The cause of faults are many and electromagnetic influences play a major role. In a highly technical, electromagnetic environ-ment, it is not advisable to simply wait for the mutual influencing of electrical and electronic devices and systems and then pay good money to eliminate the resulting problems. Rather it is es-sential to plan and take preventative measures that reduce the risk of influences, faults and destruction.In spite of all this, the damage and loss statistics of electronic in-surance companies are extremely worrying: More than a quarter of all claims are as a result of overvoltages due to electromag-netic influences.
Source: The causes of damage to electronics in 2001, analysis of 7370 claims Württembergische Versicherungs AG.
Causes of overvoltageDepending on their cause, overvoltages are divided into two cat-egories:• LEMP (Lightning ElectroMagnetic Pulse) – overvoltages,
caused by atmospheric influences (e.g. direct lightning strikes, electromagnetic lightning fields).
• SEMP (Switching ElectroMagnetic Pulse) – overvoltages caused by switching operations (e.g. disconnection of short-circuits, normal switching of loads).
Overvoltages that are the result of thunderstorms are caused by direct/close-up or remote strikes (see diagram on page 5/5).Direct or close-up strikes are lightning strikes to the lightning protection system of a building, its immediate proximity or to the electrical conductive systems of a building (e.g. l.v. power sup-ply, TC and control lines). The resulting surge currents and volt-ages are a particular threat to the system to be protected due to their amplitude and power.In the case of direct or close-up lightning strikes, the overvoltag-es (see diagram on page 5/5) are caused by the voltage drop at the surge grounding resistance and the resulting increase in potential of the building, compared to the distant environment. This represents the greatest possible loading of an electrical plant in buildings.The characteristic parameters of the surge current (peak value, rate of current rise, charge content, specific energy) can be de-scribed using the surge current waveform 10/350 µs (see dia-gram: examples of impulse test currents). These are defined in the international, European and national standards as test cur-rent for components and devices for protection in the event of direct strikes.
In addition to the voltage drop at the surge grounding resis-tance, overvoltages also occur in electrical building installations and the connected systems and devices, due to the induction effect of the electromagnetic lightning field (see diagram on page 5/5: Example 1b).The energy of these induced overvoltages and the resulting pulse currents is considerably less than that of a direct lightning impulse current and is therefore only described with surge cur-rent wave 8/20 µs (see diagram: Examples of impulse test currents). Components and devices that do not carry currents from direct lightning strikes are therefore checked using surge currents 8/20 µs.
Examples of impulse test currents
The protection conceptRemote strikes are lightning strikes at a greater distance from the objects to be protected, lightning strikes in the medium-voltage overhead system or the immediate proximity thereof, or lightning discharges from cloud to cloud (see diagram on page 5/5: Cases 2a, 2b and 2c). At the same time as these in-duced overvoltages, the effects of remote strikes on the electri-cal system of a building are controlled through devices and components, the dimensions of which correspond to surge cur-rent wave 8/20 µs.The causes of overvoltages due to switching operations in-clude the following:• Switching off of inductive loads
(e.g. transformers, reactors, motors),• Ignition and interruption of electric arcs
(e.g. arc-welding device),• Tripping of fuses.The effects of switching operations in the electrical installation of a building are simulated for testing purposes with surge currents of waveform 8/20 µs.To ensure the continuous availability of complex power and in-formation systems, even in the event of direct lightning strikes, further measures for overvoltage protection of electrical and electronic systems are required as well as a building lightning protection system. It is important to take all the causes of over-voltages into account. For this purpose, the lightning protection zone concept is used as described in IEC 62305-4 (DIN V VDE V 0185-4) (see diagram on page 5/6). The building is divided into zones of different danger levels. Using these zones, it is possible to determine the devices and components required for the lightning and overvoltage protection.

An EMC-oriented lightning protection zone concept should also include external lightning protection (with air terminals, arrest-ers, grounding), equipotential bonding, room insulation and overvoltage protection for power and information systems.For the definition of lightning protection zones (LPZ), please use the specifications made in the table "Definition of lightning protection zones".
Definition of lightning protection zones
According to the demands and loads made on overvoltage pro-tection devices with regard to their installation site, these are di-vided into lightning arresters, surge arresters and arrester com-binations.The highest demands with regard to discharge capacity are made on lightning current and arrester combinations, which im-plement the transition from lightning protection zone LPZ 0A to LPZ 1 or LPZ 0A to LPZ 2. These surge arresters must be able to carry lightning partial currents of waveform 10/350 µs several times and thus prevent these destructive currents from penetrat-ing the electrical installation of a building. At the transition of lightning protection zone LPZ 0B to LPZ 1 the downstream light-ning arrester at the transition area of lightning protection zones LPZ 1 auf LPZ 2 and higher, surge arresters are installed to pro-tect against overvoltages. It is their task to further attenuate the remaining extent of the upstream protection level and restrict the overvoltages in the system, whether they are induced or self-generated.The lightning and overvoltage protective measures at the bor-ders of the lightning protection zones apply in equal measure to the energy and information system. The holistic approach of the measures described in the EMC-oriented lightning protection zone concept means it is possible to achieve permanent plant availability of a modern infrastructure.
Causes for overvoltages during lightning discharges
Lightning protection zones
Description
LPZ 0A Zone where objects are exposed to direct lightning strikes and must therefore carry the whole lightning current. The undamped electromagnetic field occurs in this case.
LPZ 0B Zone where objects are not exposed to direct lightning strikes but where the undamped electromagnetic field still occurs.
LPZ 1 Zone where objects are not exposed to direct lightning strikes and in which the currents are reduced compared to Zone 0A. In this zone, the electromagnetic field may be damped, depending on the insulation measures imple-mented.
LPZ 2, LPZ 3
If a significant reduction in the conducted currents and/ or the electromagnetic field is required, subsequent zones must be set up. The demand on these zones must be geared towards the required environment zones of the system to be protected.

Benefits • Type 1 lightning arresters do not require decoupling reactors
to be fitted in the plant. This simplifies plant configuration and reduces space requirements. No time is wasted on planning the installation of decoupling reactors. This also considerably cuts costs.
• The rated arrester voltage is a uniform 350 V AC. This in-creases safety in systems with extended voltage overshoots.
• All lightning arresters are fitted with a mechanical fault indica-tion, which does not require an extra power supply. This means they can be installed in the precounter area, where electrical plants can be protected particularly effectively.
• The protective modules are plug-in versions. No mounting work required when replacing the protective modules. When taking insulation measurements, the protective modules are simply removed, no need to disconnect the power supply.
• All type 1 lightning arresters are fitted with a remote indication contact, which is inserted in the device and does not require any further space. A remote signaling is always possible, even in the event of a power failure.
Application
• Type 1 lightning arresters include the system cables in the equipotential bonding, which protects the low-voltage systems against the overvoltages and high surge currents that can be triggered by direct or indirect lightning strikes.
• The protection level is lowered to 1.5 kV by the lightning ar-rester, which reduces the load on the plant if a lightning strike is discharged.
• The lightning arresters are enclosed and are suitable for installation in the precounter area.

Lightning and Overvoltage Protection DevicesSurge ArrestersWide version,requirement category C, type 2, class II
5/16 Siemens ET B1 T · 2007
Benefits• Type 2 surge arresters do not require decoupling reactors to
be fitted in the system. This simplifies plant configuration and reduces space requirements. No time is wasted on planning the installation of decoupling reactors. This considerably cuts costs.
• The rated arrester voltage is a uniform 350 V AC. This increases safety in systems with extended voltage overshoots.
• All type 2 surge arresters are fitted with a mechanical fault indication, which does not require an extra power supply.
• The protective modules are plug-in versions. No mounting work required when replacing the protective modules. When taking insulation measurements, the protective modules are simply removed, no need to disconnect the surge arrester from the power supply.
• Type 2 surge arresters are available with a remote signaling contact, which is inserted in the device and does not require any further space. A remote signaling is always possible, even in the event of a power failure. The remote signaling signals a fault even if the protective module is not plugged in.
• The width of a protective module is 1 MW. This means that it can also be rail-mounted with a miniature circuit-breaker or RCCB.
Application
• Type 2 surge arresters are used after type 1 lightning arresters in main distribution boards or sub-distribution boards and pro-tect low-voltage systems against overvoltages.
• The type 2 surge arrester lowers the level of protection to 1.5 kV.
• A thermal isolating arrester disconnector offers a high degree of protection against overload during runtime.

Benefits• All type 3 surge protection adapters are fitted with an LED as
a visual status and fault indication. • The protection circuit is continuously thermally monitored. This
ensures constant safe operation for the operator.• The attractive design fits well into residential living spaces.
Application
• Type 3 surge protection adapters for insertion in a 5socket outlet protect electronic loads against overvoltages from main power supplies.
• However, overvoltages do not just reach loads over power cables. Telecommunication devices for TAE, ISDN/RDS and RJ12 connection, televisions or radios with aerial connection or satellite radio connection are all connected to a further power supply system which may also pass overvoltages on to devices.
