6、0) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for s

7、tudying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendations on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study g

8、roups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approval of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis wit

9、h ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administration“ is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency. Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provi

37、procedures applied to the external area. These procedures, as well as others not shown in the figure, are detailed in the subsequent clauses. 6.1 Lightning protection system (LPS) In order to protect the antennas and auxiliary equipment from a direct strike, it may be necessary to install an LPS in

38、the tower. If the nearby tower does not protect the shelter, it may be necessary to install an LPS in the shelter too. The assessment of the need for an LPS and the determination of its positioning shall be performed with the rolling sphere method described in IEC 62305-3. The following clauses give

39、 some procedures for the installation of the LPS. 6.1.1 Metallic tower The LPS rod(s) shall be connected directly to the structure of the metallic tower. Therefore, the structure of the metallic tower will conduct the stroke current to ground and there is no need to install lightning down conductors

40、. NOTE If the total cross-section of the tower structure is less than 125 mm2, then the tower shall be treated as a non-metallic tower, as described in clause 6.1.2. 6.1.2 Non-metallic tower If the structure that supports the antennas is not metallic (e.g., wood pole) or if it is metallic but its cr

41、oss-section is less than 125 mm2, it is necessary to install two down-conductors to earth the LPS rod(s). The down conductors shall not be insulated from the tower and they shall have a minimum cross-section of 50 mm2each. The down conductors shall be installed on opposite sides of the tower. 6.1.3

42、Building In the majority of the cases, the nearby tower will protect the building against direct strikes. However, the need for an LPS in the building shall be investigated with the rolling sphere method described in IEC 62305-3. If the building requires an LPS, it shall be earthed in the earthing s

43、ystem of the RBS, which is described in clause 6.3. 4 Rec. ITU-T K.56 (01/2010) Figure 1 General view of earthing and bonding procedures in the external area 6.2 Bonding in the tower 6.2.1 Feeder cables The wave-guide and the external conductor of coaxial cables, henceforth referred as feeder cables

44、, shall be bonded to the metallic tower (or to the feeder tray) near the antenna, as shown in Figure 1. A weatherproof connector shall make the connection to the feeder cable in order to avoid corrosion, and the connection to the tower (or feeder tray) structure shall also be protected to avoid ingr

45、ession of moisture. Usually, the cable manufacturers provide appropriated earthing kits for these connections. The earthing kits shall have a connector to be attached on the bare outer surface of the feeder (the feeder plastic outer jacket shall be removed), another connector to be attached to the t

46、ower structure (paint shall be removed) and a conductor bonding the two connectors. The earthing kit shall also contain protective coatings to be applied on the connections. Figure 2 shows schematically the installation of an earthing kit before the application of the protective coating. NOTE 1 For

47、non-metallic towers or metallic towers with a cross-section smaller than 125 mm2, the bonding shall be made to the lightning down conductor. NOTE 2 Some types of antenna are inherently connected to the tower by design. In this case, it is not necessary to use an earthing kit to bond the feeder to th

48、e tower (or feeder tray), as it is already bonded through the antenna structure. Rec. ITU-T K.56 (01/2010) 5 Figure 2 Example of installation of earthing kit on feeder cable (protective coating not shown) Depending on the length of the horizontal section of the feeder tray (from the tower to the equ

49、ipment building), it is recommended to bond the feeder cables to the tower (or to the feeder tray) at the point where they leave the tower (bending point). The minimum length of the horizontal section that requires this bonding is given in Table 2. Table 2 Minimum length of the horizontal section of the feeder tray that requires bonding of feeders at the bending point LPL I II III-IV Feeder tray length 10 m 15 m 20 m NOTE Regardless of the bonding at the bending point, the
