Protection<br />
<strong>for</strong>...<br />
tion system to ensure its <strong>protection</strong><br />
against a direct lightning<br />
strike. By using suitable air-termination<br />
<strong>systems</strong>, like air-termination<br />
rods, <strong>for</strong> example, direct lightning<br />
strikes into the <strong>PV</strong> modules<br />
can be prevented. The necessary<br />
air-termination rods possibly to be<br />
installed additionally, must be<br />
arranged to prevent a direct strike<br />
into the <strong>PV</strong> module within their<br />
<strong>protection</strong> zone <strong>and</strong>, secondly, any<br />
casting of a shadow on the modules.<br />
It has to be considered that a separation<br />
distance s must be kept<br />
between the <strong>PV</strong> components <strong>and</strong><br />
metal parts like lightning <strong>protection</strong><br />
<strong>systems</strong>, rain gutters, skylights,<br />
<strong>solar</strong> cells or antenna <strong>systems</strong><br />
in compliance with IEC<br />
62305-3 (EN 62305-3). The separation<br />
distance has to be calculated<br />
according to IEC 62305-3 (EN<br />
62305-3)3. The <strong>PV</strong> system shown in<br />
Figure <strong>9.18</strong>.1.7 is located in the<br />
protective area of the external<br />
lightning <strong>protection</strong> system. Figure<br />
