21、TECTION AGAINST LIGHTNING THUNDERSTORM WARNING SYSTEMS FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-opera

22、tion on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as

23、“IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this prepa

24、ration. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international conse

25、nsus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts a

26、re made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications t

27、ransparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independe

28、nt certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liabi

29、lity shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (inclu

30、ding legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of

31、this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 62793 has been prepared by IEC technical commi

32、ttee 81: Lightning protection. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 81/508/FDIS 81/519/RVDFull information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been draf

33、ted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. BS IEC 62793:2016 6 IEC 62793:2016 IEC 2016 The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC website under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the spec

34、ific publication. At this date, the publication will be g120 reconfirmed, g120 withdrawn, g120 replaced by a revised edition, or g120 amended. A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date. IMPORTANT The colour inside logo on the cover page of this publication indicates that

35、it contains colours which are considered to be useful for the correct understanding of its contents. Users should therefore print this document using a colour printer. BS IEC 62793:2016IEC 62793:2016 IEC 2016 7 INTRODUCTION Natural atmospheric electric activity and, in particular, cloud-to-ground li

36、ghtning poses a serious threat to living beings and property. Every year severe injuries and even deaths of humans are caused as a result of direct or indirect lightning strikes. Lightning: g120 may affect sport, cultural and political events attracting large concentrations of people; events may hav

37、e to be suspended and people evacuated in the case of a risk of thunderstorm; g120 may affect industrial activities by creating power outages and unplanned interruptions of production processes; g120 may interrupt all kinds of traffic (people, energy, information, etc.); g120 has led to a steady inc

38、rease in the number of accidents per year due to the wider use of electric components that are sensitive to the effects of lightning (in industry, transportation and communication); g120 may be a hazard for activities with an environmental risk, for example handling of sensitive, inflammable, explos

39、ive or chemical products; g120 may be a cause of fire. During the last decades, technical systems including systems devoted to real-time monitoring of natural atmospheric electric activity and lightning, have experienced an extraordinary development. These systems can provide high quality and valuab

40、le information in real-time of the thunderstorm occurrence, making it possible to achieve information which can be extremely valuable if coordinated with a detailed plan of action. Although this information allows the user to adopt anticipated temporary preventive measures, it should be noted that a

41、ll the measures to be taken based on monitoring information are the responsibility of the system user according to the relevant regulations. The effectiveness will depend largely on the risk involved and the planned decisions to be taken. This International Standard gives an informative list of poss

42、ible actions. Lightning and thunderstorms, as with many natural phenomena, are subject to statistical uncertainty. It is not possible therefore to achieve precise information on when and where lightning will strike. Other lightning protection standards do not cover the use of thunderstorm warning sy

43、stems. BS IEC 62793:2016 8 IEC 62793:2016 IEC 2016 PROTECTION AGAINST LIGHTNING THUNDERSTORM WARNING SYSTEMS 1 Scope This International Standard describes the characteristics of thunderstorm warning systems and evaluation of the usefulness of lightning real time data and/or storm electrification dat

44、a in order to implement lightning hazard preventive measures. This standard provides the basic requirements for sensors and networks collecting accurate data of the relevant parameters, giving real-time information of lightning tracks and range. It describes the application of the data collected by

45、these sensors and networks in the form of warnings and historical data. This standard applies to the use of information from thunderstorm warning systems (systems or equipment providing real-time information) on atmospheric electric activity in order to monitor preventive measures. This standard inc

46、ludes: g120 a general description of available lightning and storm electrification hazard warning systems; g120 a classification of thunderstorm detection devices and properties; g120 guidelines for alarming methods; g120 a procedure to determine the usefulness of thunderstorm information; g120 some

47、 informative examples of possible preventive actions. The following aspects are outside the scope of this standard: a) lightning protection systems; such systems are covered by the IEC 62305 series; b) other thunderstorm related phenomena such as rain, hail, wind; c) satellite and radar thunderstorm

48、 detection techniques. A non-exhaustive list of situations to which this standard could be applicable is given below: g120 people in open areas involved in activities such as maintenance, labour, sports, competitions, agriculture and fisheries or situations where large crowds gather; g120 wind farms

49、, large solar power systems, power lines; g120 occupational health and safety prevention; g120 sensitive equipment such as computer systems, emergency systems, alarms and safety equipment; g120 operational and industrial processes; g120 storage, processing and transportation of hazardous substances (e.g. flammable, radioactive, toxic and explosive substances); g120 determined environments or activities with special danger of electrostati
