Recent updates to the IEC 62858 standard introduce stricter requirements for ensuring the safety and compliance of lightning protection systems.
Key Updates to IEC 62858
The revised guidelines mandate that inspections for lightning protection systems, often referred to as Vr fulmini, must take place at least every five years. This change is designed to improve safety measures and align systems with the latest regulatory standards.
Mandatory Compliance Checks
To adhere to the new IEC 62858 regulations, building owners, electrical engineers, and safety inspectors are required to:
- Conduct regular compliance inspections on existing lightning protection systems.
- Reassess Ng values (lightning strike density) every five years. These updated Ng values will now act as key benchmarks for evaluating Vr fulmini systems, ensuring conformity with evolving industry best practices.
