About this file

This document is a Lightning Protection System (LPS) inspection and testing report for multiple federal buildings. The report documents visual inspections and electrical tests conducted on lightning protection systems installed on nine buildings (BLDG 466, 467, 1148, 1149, 1150, 1155, 1156, 1157, 472, and the Building 1149 Sunshade) to verify compliance with federal safety standards including DOD 6055.09-M, DA PAM 385-64, AFMAN 91-201, AFI 32-1065, and NAVSEA OP 5.

The inspection utilizes a standardized checklist assessing multiple LPS components including underground conduit installation, down conductor support and protection, conductor bend specifications, metallic utility line bonding, overhead powerline clearance, ground ring electrode installation and sizing, and various bonding requirements for metallic access doors, fences, and masses. Electrical testing employs three methods: bond testing (recommended <200 mOhms), clamp-on testing (recommended <25 Ohms), and 3-point fall-off potential testing (recommended <25 Ohms). Results indicate most systems pass inspection with minor recommendations for repairs, including replacement of missing air terminals, re-termination of ground leads, reconnection of disconnected components, and correction of loose roof connectors. Building 472 failed its LPS inspection due to multiple faulty components including missing and broken air terminals, open circuit connections, disconnected roof vents, and failed ground positions. The report includes detailed diagrams, photographs, and tabular test data for each facility.

Electrical Tests

Given the variability of structures and construction techniques across different locations, test techniques for evaluating lightning protection systems will be determined on a case-by-case basis. The head-end structure should be chosen to conduct some or all of the listed tests to assess the integrity of the existing lightning protection systems.

Any deviations from the standard procedures should be documented accordingly.

General Recommendations.

Inspection Criteria BLDG 1157 NOTES

Given the variability of structures and construction techniques across different locations, test techniques for evaluating lightning protection systems will be determined on a case-by-case basis. The head-end structure should be chosen to conduct some or all of the listed tests to assess the integrity of the existing lightning protection systems.
