Protection area:
The so-called “stretched wire” lightning protection system does not provide an extended protection zone. The protection zone obtained is limited to the effective position of the overhead conductors.
Protection of open areas:
The so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system is suitable for protecting small open areas.
Study :
The so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system requires a simple study.
Implementation :
The so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system requires complex and time-consuming implementation.
Qualification necessary for implementation:
The qualification of installers for the implementation of a so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system is important. Its implementation must be carried out by competent elements.
Aesthetic (Integration into architecture):
The so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system does not integrate into the architecture of a building.
Production budget:
The cost of implementing a so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system is very expensive (materials + implementation time + maintenance).
Maintenance Cost:
The so-called “tensioned wire” lightning protection system requires extensive maintenance. Periodic checks are costly.
