BS EN IEC 62858:2019 PDF

Scope: What is BS EN IEC 62858 - Lightning location systems (LLS) about? BS EN IEC 62858 introduces and discusses all necessary measures to make reliable and homogeneous the values of ground flash density, NG and ground strike point density, NSG, obtained from lightning location systems (LLSs) in various countries. Only parameters that are relevant to risk assessment are considered. Who is BS EN IEC 62858 - Lightning location systems (LLS) for ? BS EN IEC 62858 on lightning location systems (LLS) is useful for: Fulminologists Meteorological departments Why should you use BS EN IEC 62858 - Lightning location systems (LLS) ? In many areas of the world data for risk evaluation is provided by lightning location systems (LLSs), but no common rule exists defining requirements either for their performance or for the elaboration of the measured data. BS EN IEC 62858 describes four methods to verify the performance of LLSs in determining the lightning density: Network self-reference method, rocket triggered lightning and tall object studies, video camera ...
