Abstract
The organization of lightning protection measures is based on information about the nature of the distribution of lightning discharges, their number and the current value in the region of the location of the protection objects. Therefore, the most relevant direction of the study is to clarify the existing recommendations in the field of lightning protection. In the article, based on the data of long-term measurements of the LS 8000 lightning direction finding system located in the North Caucasus, the analysis of the registration of lightning parameters is carried out. The revealed regularities of the distribution of lightning discharges over the territory in different periods of the year are the basis for the approximation equations developed by the authors, which are used to describe the space-time density of lightning. Maps of the distribution of the number of lightning discharges per square kilometer obtained from the initial data and constructed according to the developed equations are presented, and the relevance of the results obtained is evaluated.
