Lightening Protection
(p. 107)
The most common and destructive ESDs are primary and secondary lightning
strikes. Primary lightning strikes hit instrumentation directly. Secondary strikes
induce voltage in power lines or wires connected to instrumentation. While
elaborate, expensive, and nearly infallible lightning protection systems are on the
market, Campbell Scientific, for many years, has employed a simple and
inexpensive design that protects most systems in most circumstances. The system
employs a lightening rod, metal mast, heavy-gage ground wire, and ground rod to
direct damaging current away from the CR1000. This system, however, not
infallible. Figure
Lightning-Protection Scheme
(p. 108)
is a drawing of a typical
application of the system.
