32、s a serious threat to living beings and property. Every year severe injuries and even deaths of humans are caused as a direct or indirect result of lightning: sport, cultural and political events attracting large concentrations of people may have to be suspended and evacuated in the case of a risk o
33、f thunderstorm; power outages and unplanned interruptions of production processes; the wider use of electrical components that are sensitive to the effects of lightning (in industry, transportation and communication) has led to a steady increase in the number of accidents per year. In order to reduc
34、e this number of accidents and important material losses, it may be necessary in some circumstances, to disconnect certain equipment from any incoming installations; thunderstorms could interrupt all kinds of traffic (people, energy, information, etc.); activities with an environmental risk, for exa
35、mple: handling of sensitive, inflammable, explosive or chemical products. Lightning is also one of the causes of fires. During the last decades, technical systems and systems devoted to real-time monitoring of natural atmospheric electric activity and lightning have experienced an extraordinary deve
36、lopment. These systems can provide high quality and valuable 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 anticipate
37、d temporary preventive measures, it should be noted, however, that all 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 situation involved and the planned decisi
38、ons to be taken. This document shows a list of possible actions that is, however, merely of an informative nature. It should be pointed out that lightning and thunderstorms, as any natural phenomenon, are subject to statistical uncertainty. This means that it is not possible to achieve 100 % precise
39、 information on when and where lightning will strike. Standards dealing with lightning protection methods to limit lightning damages already exist. They do not cover other potentially dangerous situations related to thunderstorms and lightning, that can be dynamically prevented or reduced by tempora
40、ry measures whose origin is a preventive alert provided by a detection system. BS EN 50536:2011+A1:2012 EN 50536:2011+A1:2012 (E)- 7 - 1 General 1.1 Object This European Standard provides information on the characteristics of thunderstorm warning systems and information for the evaluation of the of
41、lightning real time data and/or storm electrification data in order to implement lightning hazard preventive measures. 1.2 Scope This European Standard provides the basic requirements of sensors and networks collecting accurate data of the relevant parameters informing in real-time about lightning t
42、racking and range. It describes the application of the data collected by these sensors and networks in the form of warnings and historical data. This European Standard applies to the use of information from thunderstorm warning systems (which are systems or equipment which provide real-time informat
43、ion) on atmospheric electrical activity in order to monitor for preventive means. The scope of this document is providing: a general description of the available lightning and storm electrification hazard warning systems; a classification of thunderstorm detection devices and properties; guidelines
44、for alarming methods; a procedure to determine the thunderstorm information some examples of possible preventive actions (only for information). A non-exhaustive list of activities to which this European Standard might apply is given below: people in open areas: maintenance people, labour, sports or
45、 other open-air activities, competitions, crowded events, agricultural activities, farms and fisheries; wind farms, larger solar power systems, power lines, etc.; occupational health and safety prevention; safeguard sensitive equipment: computer systems, electric or electronic systems, emergency sys
46、tems, alarms and safety; prevention of losses in operations and industrial processes; prevention of serious accidents involving dangerous substances (e.g. flammable, radioactive, toxic, and explosive); prevention in determined environments or activities with special danger of electrostatic discharge
47、s (e.g. space and flight vehicle operations); operations in which the continuity of the basic services is needed to be guaranteed (e.g. telecommunications, the generation, transport and distribution of energy, sanitary services and emergency services); infrastructures: ports, airports, railroads, mo
48、torways and cableways; civil defence of the environment: forest fires, land slide and floods; managing traffic (e.g. airplanes) or wide networks (e.g. power lines, telecommunication lines) may also benefits from having early detection of thunderstorms. ! “usefulness! “usefulness;BS EN 50536:2011+A1:2012 EN 50536:2011+A1:2012 (E)- 8 - The following aspects are outside of this European Standard: a) lightning protection which is covered in their corresponding European standards and regulations; b) other thunder
