Schutz gegen Nuklear-Elektromagnetischen Impuls (NEMP) und Blitzschlag - Prüfverfahren, Prüfeinrichtungen und Grenzwerte - Teil 71: Prüfung mit Direkteinspeisung des energiereichen Anteils eines Blitzstromes nach VG 95371-10 (Verfahren LF 71); Text Deutsch und Englisch
Overview
This document is applicable to equipment to be developed or procured for, or to be furnished to the Bundeswehr. It is also applicable to the modernisation of equipment already introduced. The document specifies the test method and the test parameters which can be used for all systems to simulate the high-energy portion of a lightning current associated with a direct lightning strike. The test conducted according to this method covers the maximum value of the lightning current, the charge of lightning impulse current, the charge of lightning long stroke current, and the specific lightning energy. Working Committee NA 140-00-19 AA "Nuklear-Elektromagnetischer Puls (NEMP) und Blitz" ("Nuclear electromagnetic pulse (NEMP) and lightning protection") at DIN Standards Committee Electrical Engineering (NE) is responsible for this document.
