Abstract
Lightning protection uses rods and conductors to protect structure against direct strikes and damages. Testing efficiency of Lightning Protection Systems may be performed at various scales. Among them, it is convenient to refer to high voltage laboratory experiments which may give reproducible and quantitative results in short time and at a realistic cost.
