DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this tutorial is to present the method of assess
 ing the lightning hazard of\nmountain cableways and the selection of prote
 ctive measures based on the results of this\nassessment in relation to sta
 tion buildings\, an overhead passenger transport line\nand people (passeng
 ers and tourists in the vicinity of station buildings). The cableway is tr
 eated\nas an extensive building structure\, therefore the guidelines conta
 ined in the series of lightning\nprotection standards IEC/EN 62305 are the
  appropriate tool for analyzing the resistance of\nsuch objects.\nThe subj
 ect of detailed considerations are the risks resulting from the impact of 
 direct and\nnearby lightning on mountain cableways for all existing instal
 lations: both the supporting\nstructure of the overhead cableway and each 
 of the stations (lower\, upper and intermediate -\nif any). They have a di
 rect impact on the overvoltage and lightning hazard of the cableway. It\ni
 s necessary to disclose all possible ways of overvoltage penetration into 
 these facilities and\nto carry out an analysis of the compliance of the cu
 rrently existing protection measures with\nthe requirements of current sta
 ndards and regulations regarding the electromagnetic\ncompatibility of cab
 leway equipment and systems in the presence of nearby lightning\ndischarge
 s and the resistance of the structure of the railway transport line and it
 s station\nbuildings to direct lightning discharges.\nOn the example of an
  existing overhead circular monocable railway facility\, the results of a\
 npractical assessment of the effectiveness of locally applied lightning an
 d surge protection\nmeasures and the degree of their actual adaptation to 
 the requirements of current EMC and\nlightning protection standards will a
 lso be presented. Existing threats revealed during this\nassessment will b
 e demonstrated\, both in relation to the safety of people and in relation 
 to the\nsystems of technical devices.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Łukasiewicz - P

  the method of assessing the lightning hazard of<br />mountain cableways a
 nd the selection of protective measures based on the results of this<br />
 assessment in relation to station buildings\, an overhead passenger transp
 ort line<br />and people (passengers and tourists in the vicinity of stati
 on buildings). The cableway is treated<br />as an extensive building struc
 ture\, therefore the guidelines contained in the series of lightning<br />
 protection standards IEC/EN 62305 are the appropriate tool for analyzing t
 he resistance of<br />such objects.<br />The subject of detailed considera
 tions are the risks resulting from the impact of direct and<br />nearby li
 ghtning on mountain cableways for all existing installations: both the sup
 porting<br />structure of the overhead cableway and each of the stations (
 lower\, upper and intermediate -<br />if any). They have a direct impact o
 n the overvoltage and lightning hazard of the cableway. It<br />is necessa

 ilities and<br />to carry out an analysis of the compliance of the current
