According to recent research from Muscat, Oman, "This paper presents a numerical electromagnetic analysis of loop-termination voltages inside an outer lightning protection system (LPS) resulting from direct and indirect lightning strikes. The method of moments is combined with the transmission-line model and employed to model the whole structure in three dimensions and the lightning channel, respectively."
"Three distinct types of class H LPS are modeled with one- and three single-phase parallel vertical loops of the TN-S system inside the LPS. All cases are simulated by using the negative subsequent stroke current with linear-rising front at lightning-protection ...
