Protection area:
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system does not allow for an extended protection zone. The protection zone obtained is limited to the effective position of the tips and/or conductors used.
Protection of open areas:
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system is not suitable for protecting open areas.
Study :
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system requires a difficult study.
Implementation :
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system requires complex and time-consuming implementation.
Qualification necessary for implementation:
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system requires complex and time-consuming implementation.
Aesthetic (Integration into architecture):
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system does not integrate into the architecture of a building.
Production budget:
The cost of implementing a so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system is very expensive (materials + implementation time + maintenance).
Maintenance cost:
The so-called “meshed cage” lightning protection system requires extensive maintenance. Periodic checks are costly.
