Abstract :
This paper presents the main results of artificially triggered lightning experiments conducted in Saint Privat d´Allier to evaluate the effects of electromagnetic interferences on telecommunications systems. The authors emphasize the diversion of the currents and voltages induced on the different accesses of the building by a direct or a distant lightning stroke
