Lightning protection and grounding requirements for communication distribution boxes

Home / Lightning protection and grounding requirements for communication distribution boxes

This Recommendation provides guidance on protecting indoor distribution systems for mobile communication in large-scale buildings from lightning and safety risks. It emphasizes compliance with standards like IEC 62305-3, IEC 62305-4, IEC 60364 series, and ITU-T K. How to choose a lightning surge protection device surge protective device Installation Instructions The installation of a lightning arrester needs to be carried out according to the requirements of IEC 61312. Ensure that the equipment room meets the requirements because lightning is one of the major factors that causes damage to the USG. Contact VA's AHJ, Spectrum Management and COMSEC Service (SMCS 005OP2H3), (202-461-5310), for all technical assistance. Included throughout this specification are references to system's interface capability and various related features.
