Abstract :
UNDER present wartime conditions the need for conserving critical materials has been impressed upon the electrical industry with emphasis. It is for this reason that the lightning arrester subcommittee of the protective devices committee undertook a review of lightning protective devices and practices and their application to uncover and present any worth-while savings which it seems possible, practical, and reasonable to obtain. Within the short time since this project became active, it has not been possible to obtain committee agreement on all the various considerations involved. Therefore, rather than withhold from the industry the value of constructive study and suggestions already available, this paper is being presented without the sponsorship or any commitment by the lightning arrester subcommittee. It is hoped that its presentation and the discussions it will initiate will be helpful to the committee in continuing its work on this project to a conclusion. It is the purpose of the paper to give some results of a study on this problem up to the time the paper was prepared.
