Lightning protection - Telecommunication lines - Part 2: Lines using metallic conductors

Deals with protection against lightning of outdoor telecommunication lines using metallic conductors (for example, access networks, lines between buildings). These lines concern: - telecommunication lines connecting a switch with a network termination (NT1) - telecommunication or signal lines connecting equipment located in different buildings, e.g. ISDN lines or signal lines between computers. The object of this standard is to protect telecommunication lines and connected equipment against the direct and indirect influence of lightning by limiting the risk of damage due to overvoltages and overcurrents, liable to occur in these lines, to values which are lower than or equal to tolerable risk of damage. The type of building can also have an effect on the risk assessment of lightning damage to telecommunication lines, as well as the physical layout of the equipment installation. However, these and other similar aspects are covered by appropriate, specific standards and are beyond the scope of this standard. Fibre optical cable with metallic pairs in the cable core must be protected, following the requirements of this standard, together with those requirements defined in EN 61663-1.

Protection contre la foudre - Lignes de télécommunication - Partie 2: Lignes utilisant des conducteurs métalliques

Traite de la protection contre la foudre des lignes de télécommunication extérieures utilisant des conducteurs métalliques (par exemple réseau d'accès, lignes entre bâtiments). Ces lignes sont : - les lignes de télécommunication connectant un commutateur avec le réseau terminal (NT1); - les lignes de télécommunication ou de signaux connectant divers bâtiments, par exemple des lignes ISDN ou des lignes de signaux entre ordinateurs. L' objet de la présente norme est de protéger les lignes de télécommunication et les équipements qui lui sont connectés contre les effets directs et indirects de la foudre en limitant le risque de dommages dus aux surtensions et aux surintensités, susceptibles d'apparaître sur ces lignes, à des valeurs inférieures ou égales au risque tolérable de dommages. Le type de bâtiment peut aussi avoir un effet sur l'estimation du risque de dommages dus à la foudre sur les lignes de télécommunication, ainsi que la disposition physique des équipements. Toutefois, ces aspects, ainsi que d'autre aspects analogues, sont traités dans des normes spécifiques appropriées et sont en dehors du domaine d'application de la présente norme. Les prescriptions de la présente norme sont également applicables, en plus de celles de la EN 61663-1, à la protection des câbles à fibres optiques contenant des paires métalliques.
