4 1.0 Introduction The University recognises its statutory obligations under the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974, The Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations 1999 and The Electricity at Work Regulations 1989 to protect and control the risks to students, staff & visitors from exposure to danger due to lightning strikes. It aims to do this by having procedures in place which require the provision of lightning protection systems on it s estate as necessary to protect from the effects of lightning strikes. A lightning stroke contains considerable energy and this must be discharged safely to the ground, where necessary, either by the use of specific lightning conductor systems attached to buildings, the use of the conductive structure of a structure (structural steelwork, reinforcing steelwork or cladding etc) or by a smaller building utilising the protective shadow of an adjacent larger building. In some cases however it may be that a structure or its content is of low value and with a relativly low risk of lightning strikes in the UK protection is not considered necessary. BS 6651:1999 was the UK lightning protection standard but it has been superceded by BS EN/IEC published in 2006, and BS 6651 was withdrawn in 2008, and now BS EN/IEC is the recognised standard for lightning protection. There is no specific statutory requirement to protect against lightning strikes, but with large modern buildings being of significant value, and perhaps having high value or dangerous contents not to mention accommodating significant numbers of people who expect to work in safety building insurers may require lightning protection to be installed to protect a building and reduce their risk. Initially which risks it is intended to protect against should be identified: Loss of human life Loss of service to the public Loss of cultural heritage Loss of economic value The risks and need for protection measures should then be determined using the relevant risk assessment methodology and a lightning protection system provided accordingly. As well as the discharge of significant energy to earth a lightning strike on or near a building can generate high frequency transient overvoltages which can enter the buildings power systems and severly damage an installation and delecate electronic equipment, so modern lightning protection system standards also include provisions for surge protection and transient flitering on the electrical systems.

5 2.0 Purpose The purpose of this document is to detail the UCL management arrangements to be followed to ensure compliance with its legal duty to control the risk associated with lightning strikes and covers the following: Roles and responsibilities Records Training Monitoring & review 3.0 Scope This document details how UCL will address the issue of lightning protection. The University has a duty of care to all Students, Staff and Visitors across its entire estate and as such, this UCL Policy shall be applicable to all UCL UK buildings, as listed on the UCL Building Register. The only exception to this is with regards to leasehold buildings, where UCL does not hold the maintenance or repair obligations. In such areas, UCL Responsible Person Lightning Protection Systems - Operation shall ensure that the Landlord is carrying out such tasks to the same level of conformity and diligence. Where UCL has members of staff and students using these buildings there is a duty of care to ensure that the duty holder in those buildings has adequate risk assessments in place for controlling the risks associated with lightning strikes or that UCL completes an assessment for the area under our control.
