The protection of GSM and base station towers from lightning and overvoltage is provided by integrating external lightning systems, internal lightning systems, earthing, equipotential bonding and LV surge arrester protection techniques within the framework of IEC-62305 standard. . A complete lightning current is discharged through the following paths: The magnitude of the lightning current GB50057-94 (2000 Edition) YD/T 5098-2001 Suggestion: Enter the building/station power supply B level. The protection should use 10/350µs waveform surge protective device. Multi-level. . Recommendation ITU-T K. 56 presents the techniques applied to a telecommunication radio base station in order to protect it against lightning discharges. The need of protection is obtained from the methodology contained in IEC 62305-2, which is used to determine the relevant lightning protection. . Lightning protection and grounding systems provide a controlled discharge path, safely guiding lightning current into the earth before it can damage sensitive equipment. Grounding Grid and Ground Busbars In base station lightning protection design, the grounding grid and ground busbars are key components. With proper design, they can effectively reduce the impact of lightning on the station.
