Thank you Philip, it really very useful video for me. hope you can create an other video like grounding and earthing protection. I have so many guide from you. It really easy to understand. hope you more health.
Hi DDS - CAD ...... wish to know what is the standard height of the conductor ( faraday cage ) above the protection area ? Can we design the conductor ( faraday cage ) same height with protection area ?
Hi HL Chan! Please check out the video 'Creating lightning protection based on rolling sphere'. In this video you will see an example using rods. DDS-CAD offers you the tools and functionalities to design a variety of lighting protection systems.
@@DDSCAD-MEP Yes. I have seen the rolling sphere video. Can the software be able to design and plot in all the air terminals, down conductors etc accordingly to the defined LPS class on the given 2D drawings?
DDS-CAD oh... what I mean is the software able to automate the design (thru interactive mode) by plotting in the require number of air terminals and down conductors with the specific distances to show on the drawings. Would that be easier to communicate over the WhatsApp?
Hi. Nice video. But I have few questions. 1/ EN 62305-3 reuire counting "s" distance; can DDS-CAD count "s" distance from the 3D model? 2/ EN 62305-3 require proofing LPS design according to "angle" or "rolling ball"; can DDS-CAD check the design from the 3D model? 3/ In the video is grounding system made by separated earth bars (EN 62305-3, chapter 5.4.2.1). But most of grounding systems are (and should be) made as "foundation earth electrode" (in building foundation acc EN 62305-3, chapter 5.4.2.2); ist it possible made in DDS-CAD? Lighting protection together with foundation earth electrode?
Hi Jan, when we talk about Lighting protection in DDS-CAD, it is just modeling, there is no calculation in the background, so the answer is yes, you can do whatever you like. :)

Hi, DDS-CAD has a database of circular conductors and flat bars with different section sizes. Regards, Filipe
Hi, The design basing on the Risk Assessment? No lightning rods use for this case? What if the roof is not the flat type?

@@hlchan555 Not sure what you mean, but DDS-CAD provides the possibilities to flexibly generate plots based on its model.
