[0001] MONITORING APPARATUS FOR EARTH CONDITION ASCERTAINMENT [0002]

The present invention relates to a monitoring apparatus for a lightning protection grounding apparatus, and more particularly, to a monitoring apparatus for monitoring the operation status of a lightning protection grounding apparatus in real time to monitor lightning, surge, and lightning, And more particularly to a monitoring device for a lightning protection earthing device which can reduce the maintenance cost of the device.

Recently, various natural disasters are occurring due to rapid climate change due to environmental pollution.

One such natural disaster is lightning, which is mainly generated in the rainy season, is rapidly discharged from a cloud with positive potential to a cloud or ground surface with a negative potential. The discharged voltage reaches several hundred thousand volts, so that the grounded state If it is unstable, it destroys the object.

Here, grounding refers to the electrical connection of grounding lines of electrical equipment systems such as electronic equipment, communication equipment, measurement equipment, and lightning protection equipment to the earth, that is, the earth.

In other words, surge voltage caused by lightning or overload that acts on the equipment by connecting the equipment and earth electrically is flowed to the ground to prevent damage and malfunction of the equipment from overload and surge voltage.

However, if the grounding is not done correctly, there is a problem with the equipment, which may cause malfunction of the electric circuit breaker, which can lead to fatal damage to the equipment or human life. If the electric circuit breaker can not perform the rated operation, it may lead to an electric shock due to a short circuit.

Grounding and lightning protection devices are installed to protect electronic communication equipment to prevent equipment damage and damage to human life when lightning strikes hundreds of thousands to millions of volts of surge voltage.
