The manual “The protection of telecommunication lines and equipment againstlightning discharges” contains useful information for determining the need for shield wires.If an Administration has positive experience with respect to corrosion, then periodic inspection of theinsulating cover

In areas where stray currents exist or corrosion due to interference currents has beenobserved, periodic inspection may be recommended.The distance, d between earthing electrodes and their resistance, R can be established on the basis of: the specific calculation methods, takin

Such a control can be recommended for normal earth electrodes.2.2 Optical fibre cables2.2.1 Metal-free cablesMetal-free cables do not require protection against power induction, lightning damage and metal corrosion,although lightning damage to such cables is conceiva
