  Faraday Cage

For protection with the Faraday Cage, the building that is to be protected is going to be wrapped around together with all its collateral sections from the highest places of the building to the ground in a way that will form a constant and continuous conductive path. This cage which possesses many catching ends made up of conductors completed with horizontal connections, is going to be connected to an earthing system that has been installed as type A and B.

The lightning protection systems are going to be installed in a way compliant to the project which is going to be prepared in accordance to the lightning risk report, the protection level for the lightning risk report which is to be prepared is going to be determined by taking Table 1 as basis.
The Faraday cage system is made up of catching ends, landing conductors and of the earthing system. The protection levels for the Franklin rod and Faraday cage applications are going to be suitable to the criteria for these installations.
