      Protection against lightning — Part 1: General principles (IEC 62305-1:2024, IDT)

      This document provides general principles for the protection of structures against lightning, including their installations and contents, as well as persons.

      The following cases are outside the scope of this document:

      – railway systems;

      – vehicles, ships, aircraft, offshore installations;

      – underground high-pressure pipelines;

      – pipe, power and telecommunication lines separated from the structure;

      – nuclear power plants.

      The IEC 62305 series should be considered as a minimum requirement for these structures.

      Until any further information by CIGRE is available the lightning current parameters described in this document can be applied also for offshore installations.

      Protection against lightning – Part 2: Risk management (IEC 62305-2:2024, IDT)

      Provides 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.

      Risk management also includes the evaluation of frequency of damage of internal systems caused by surges due to lightning flashes to earth.

      Once an upper tolerable limit for the frequency of damage has been selected, this procedure provides a means for the selection of

      appropriate protection measures to be adopted to reduce the frequency of damage to or below the tolerable limit.

      b) establishment of measures for protection against injury to human beings primarily due to touch and step voltages.

      NOTE 1 Specific requirements for an LPS in structures dangerous to their surroundings due to the risk of explosion are provided in Annex C.

      NOTE 2 This document is not intended to provide protection against failures of electrical and electronic systems due to overvoltages. Specific requirements for such cases are provided in IEC 62305-4.

      NOTE 3 Specific requirements for the protection against lightning of wind turbines are reported in IEC 61400­24.

      NOTE 4 Specific requirements for the protection against overvoltage of photovoltaic systems are reported in IEC 61643-32 and in IEC 62305-4:2024, Annex F.

      Protection against lightning – Part 4: Electrical and electronic systems within structures (IEC 62305-4:2024, IDT)

      This document provides requirements for the design, installation, inspection, maintenance, and testing of surge protection measures (SPM) for electrical and electronic systems to reduce the risk of permanent failures due to lightning electromagnetic impulse

      (LEMP) within a structure.

      This document does not cover protection against electromagnetic interference due to lightning, which can cause malfunctioning of internal systems.

      However, the information reported in Annex A can also be used to evaluate such disturbances. Protection measures against electromagnetic interference are covered in IEC 60364-4-44 and in the IEC 61000 series.

      This document provides guidelines for cooperation between the designer of the electrical and electronic system and the designer of the protection measures, in order to achieve optimum protection effectiveness.

      Statistical methods for use in proficiency testing by interlaboratory
      comparison (ISO 13528:2022 +
      DAmd.1:202X, IDT)

      This document provides detailed descriptions of statistical methods for proficiency testing providers to use to design proficiency testing schemes and to analyse the data obtained from those schemes. This document provides recommendations on the interpretation of proficiency testing data by participants in such proficiency testing schemes and by accreditation bodies.


      The procedures in this document can be applied to demonstrate that the measurement results obtained by laboratories, inspection bodies, and individuals meet specified criteria for acceptable performance.


      This document is applicable to proficiency testing where the results reported are either quantitative measurements or qualitative observations on test items.


      NOTE The procedures in this document can also be applied for the assessment of expert opinion where the opinions or judgments are reported in a form which can be compared
      objectively with an independent reference value or a consensus statistic. For example, when classifying proficiency test items into known categories by inspection or in determining by inspection whether proficiency test items arise, or do not arise, from the same original source and the classification results are compared objectively, the provisions of this document that relate to nominal (qualitative) properties can be applied.
