Estudio de sistema de control de descargas atmosféricas, utilizando pararrayos, apartarrayos, telurómetro e interruptores diferenciales para la INDUSTRIA CARTONERA.

Abstract

The present work is developed for the cardboard factory located on Daule KM 14 ½ road, giving a guide on how protection systems against atmospheric discharges should be implemented in the cardboard manufacturing plant, there is a detailed description of the best protections that can be installed to safeguard production machines, workers, and power equipment. The elements against natural discharges must be selected according to their best utility and the type of installation we must protect; each classification is important because they give us a broad point of view for a better selection or sizing of these. Having a guide is a strategy against the problem, since we do not know at what moment a high energy discharge can occur and cause us a calamity without return. The assembly of lightning arresters, lightning rods, differential switches, and the use of the tellurometer, are essential, each one fulfills a specific function and a different location, among all the elements placed reach the goal of a more efficient protection of the cardboard industry. There will be designs in AutoCAD of the best elements and their correct placement considering the technical data sheet, spaces to be protected and standards, thus ensuring the best strategy against these discharges produced by nature.
