This part of IEC 62305 provides general principles for the protection of structures against lightning, including their installations and contents, as well as persons. The following cases are outside the scope of this document: - railway systems; - vehicles, ships, aircraft, offshore installations; - underground high-pressure pipelines; − pipe, power and telecommunication lines placed outside the structure; − nuclear power plants. NOTE 1 In these cases, structures usually fall under special regulations produced by various specialized authorities. The IEC 62305 series is generally considered as a minimum requirement for these structures. For structures (subsidiary or others) not falling under such special regulations, IEC 62305 still applies. NOTE 2 Lightning protection of wind turbines is also covered by IEC 61400-24 [14]. NOTE 3 Until any further information by CIGRE is available the lightning current parameters described in this standard may be applied also for offshore installations.

IEC 62305-3:2024 provides the requirements for protection of a structure against physical damage by means of a lightning protection system (LPS), and for protection against injury to human beings due to touch and step voltages in the vicinity of an LPS (see IEC 62305-1). This document is applicable to the: a) design, installation, inspection and maintenance of an LPS for structures without limitation of their height, b) establishment of measures for protection against injury to human beings primarily due to touch and step voltages. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2010. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) Minimum thicknesses of metal sheets or metal pipes are given in Table 4 for air-termination systems where it is necessary to prevent hot-spot problems. Maximum temperature rises ΔT (K) and time duration t50 (s) for different thicknesses and long strokes are also given. b) Cross-reference to the IEC 62561 series is made for the use of reliable, stable, safe and appropriate LPS components. c) The application of two methods – general and simplified – for separation distance calculation is clarified. d) Some changes to the requirements for continuity of steel reinforcement are made. e) Annex C is revised to address comments from IEC subcommittee 31J. f) Revision of positioning of air-termination conductors are modified according to the three accepted methods. A more precise description of the methods for positioning of the air-termination systems are made according to the complexity of structures to be protected. The main text has been simplified, Annex A has been deleted and all detailed information has been moved to Annex D. g) Information on the protection of green roofs is introduced in Annex D. h) Information on the protection of protruding parts on facades of tall buildings is introduced in Annex D. i) a new definition of “electrically insulated LPS” has been introduced to distinguish it from an LPS both electrically and physically isolated from the structure, with a slight modification of the other LPS definitions.

IEC 62305-2:2024 is applicable to the risk management of a structure due to lightning flashes to earth. Its purpose is to provide a procedure for the evaluation of such a risk. Once an upper tolerable limit for the risk has been selected, this procedure provides a means for the selection of appropriate protection measures to be adopted to reduce the risk to or below the tolerable limit. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2010. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) The concept of a single risk, to combine loss of human life and loss due to fire, has been introduced. b) The concept of frequency of damage that can impair the availability of the internal systems within the structure has been introduced. c) The lightning ground strike-point density NSG has been introduced replacing the lightning flash density NG in the evaluation of expected average annual number of dangerous events. d) Reduction of a few risk components can be achieved by the use of preventive temporary measures activated by means of a thunderstorm warning system (TWS) compliant with IEC 62793. The risk of direct strike to people in open areas has been introduced, considering the reduction of that risk using a TWS.

IEC 62305-4:2024 provides requirements for the design, installation, inspection, maintenance, and testing of surge protection measures (SPM) for electrical and electronic systems to reduce the risk of permanent failures due to lightning electromagnetic impulse (LEMP) within a structure. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2010. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition: a) addition of new informative Annex E and Annex F on the determination of current sharing using modelling and current sharing in PV installations respectively; b) addition of a new informative Annex G on methods of testing of system level behaviour; c) addition of a new informative Annex H on induced voltages in SPD-protected installations.

This part of IEC 62561 specifies the requirements and tests for devices intended to count the number of lightning strikes based on the current flowing in a conductor. This conductor may be part of a lightning protection system (LPS) or connected to an SPD installation or other conductors, which are not intended to conduct a significant portion of lightning currents. LSCs for use in hazardous atmospheres, extra requirements for the components may be necessary to be taken. NOTE In CENELEC countries, testing requirements of components for explosive atmosphere are specified in CLC/TS 50703-2.
