Corrigendum 1 - Protection against lightning - Part 2: Risk management

IEC 62305-2:2024 is applicable to the risk management of a structure due to lightning flashes to earth.
Its purpose is to provide a procedure for the evaluation of such a risk. Once an upper tolerable limit for the risk has been selected, this procedure provides a means for the selection of appropriate protection measures to be adopted to reduce the risk to or below the tolerable limit.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition, published in 2010. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) The concept of a single risk, to combine loss of human life and loss due to fire, has been introduced.
b) The concept of frequency of damage that can impair the availability of the internal systems within the structure has been introduced.
c) The lightning ground strike-point density NSG has been introduced replacing the lightning flash density NG in the evaluation of expected average annual number of dangerous events.
d) Reduction of a few risk components can be achieved by the use of preventive temporary measures activated by means of a thunderstorm warning system (TWS) compliant with IEC 62793. The risk of direct strike to people in open areas has been introduced, considering the reduction of that risk using a TWS.

Corrigendum 1 - Protection contre la foudre - Partie 2: Évaluation des risques

L'IEC 62305-2:2024 s'applique à l'évaluation des risques auxquels une structure est exposée en raison des coups de foudre à la terre.
Elle est destinée à proposer une procédure d'évaluation d'un tel risque. Lorsque la limite supérieure du risque tolérable est fixée, la procédure permet de choisir les mesures de protection appropriées pour réduire le risque à une valeur inférieure ou égale à la valeur limite tolérable.
Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition parue en 2010. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente:
a) adoption du concept de risque unique, afin de combiner les pertes de vies humaines et les pertes dues à un incendie;
b) adoption du concept de fréquence des dommages qui peuvent influencer la disponibilité des réseaux internes à la structure;
c) adoption de la densité de points d'impact au sol de la foudre NSG en remplacement de la densité des coups de foudre NG dans l'évaluation du nombre moyen annuel d'événements dangereux prévisibles;
d) la réduction de quelques composantes de risque peut être obtenue par l'utilisation de mesures préventives temporaires activées par un système d'alerte aux orages (TWS) conforme à l'IEC 62793. Le risque que des personnes soient directement frappées par la foudre dans des espaces ouverts a été décrit, en tenant compte de la réduction de ce risque au moyen d'un TWS.
