V. REMAINING PROBLEMS IN THE IEC 62305-2
Though the basic concept of risk in the IEC 62305-2 is
reasonable, there seems to be some other problems in the
standard.
Firstly, occurrence rates of damage should be known for
risk assessment. There are many tables of parameters for the
calculation on various conditions in the IEC 62305-2. The
equations to calculate lightning risk are shown in Table 2 and
the parameters used in the risk calculation are shown in Table 3.
But the physical background of each value of parameters
shown in the tables is not always clear. The physical
background should be shown for further refinement in future.
Secondly, a method to include the additional losses in
surroundings or environment is described in the Annex C of
IEC 62305-2. The total loss L
FT
is the sum of the initial loss in
the structure L
F
and the loss in the surrounding or environment
L
E
. Although L
F
does not include zone factors, LE includes the
zone factors for the surrounding or environment. This leads to
severe error, which is also indicated by the paper 1. It should
be corrected as soon as possible.
VI. CONCLUSIONS
In this paper, the validity of the concept of risk in the IEC
62305-2 is verified and some remaining problems in the IEC
62305-2 are presented.
An immediate revision of the IEC 62305-2 is required and
the activity of the Maintenance Team (MT9) of IEC TC 81 will
be very important from this point of view.
