Abstract
Different types of lightning air terminals have been designed over the years. Concern regarding the effect of different types of air terminals, especially the early streamer emission (ESE)-type, remains controversial. This paper describes the discharge characteristics of different types of air terminals, two of which are quite similar to the ESE-type dynasphere, and concludes that the tested non-standard air terminals have discharge characteristics similar to those of Franklin rods and that their lightning protection performance should be similar.
