Electrical insulation of the external LPS IEC 62305-3:2006, 6.3 “The electrical insulation between the air-termination or the down-conductor and the structural metal parts, the metal installations and the internal systems can be achieved by providing a distance d between the parts greater than the separation distance s‘: ki depends on the selected class of LPS (see Table 10); kc depends on the lightning current flowing on the down conductors (see Table 11); kmdepends on the electrical insulation material (see Table 12); l is the length, in metres, along the air-termination or the down-conductor, from the point where the separation distance is to be considered, to the nearest equipotential bonding point.“ kc s = ki l km Separation Distance

Nodal analysis - Software for the determination of the separation distance s = node Every line is shown as a resistor. The voltages of the nodes, i.e. the difference between the node potentials, are calculated by means of the supply of a defined lightning current and the mathematical solution of the equation.
