Introduction
Telecommunications towers are located in open areas where they frequently stand taller than surrounding structures, thus making them susceptible to lightning damage. These towers hold antennas, RF systems, battery backup, power supply equipment, control panels, telecommunications shelters, cabling and telecommunication systems. If lightning were to strike the tower directly, or if the electrical surge from the strike occurred, both the equipment would be damaged and service would be interrupted, affecting service continuity as well as increasing safety hazards to the crew working at the site.
