FAA lightning protection study: Lightning protection requirements for airport surveillance radar model ASR-7
Abstract
The protection situations and requirements for the landlines of the ASR-7 radar in regard to lightning- and EMP-induced surges are presented. Gasfilled surge arrestors supplemented with avalanche diode transient suppressors with associated series line resistances are recommended to protect susceptible circuits connected to the buried landlines.
