LIGHTNING TESTS

Lightning Test Facility (LTF) will be capable of performing direct and indirect lightning effects tests at the platform, system, subsystem and equipment levels.

High Voltage (max 3.4M Volt) and Current Test Systems (max 200kA)
Fuel Test System
Platform and Equipment Testing Systems

LTF will support a range of test methods specific to the lightning requirements and design support needs faced by the aerospace industry. Tests are conducted to meet project requirements in both civil and military standards;

High Voltage Strike Attachment Test (SAE ARP 5416A, Mil-Std-464D)
High Current Physical Damage Tests (SAE ARP 5416A, Mil-Std-464D)
Equipment Lightning Tests (RTCA-DO-160G/22, Mil-Std-461G, SAE ARP 5416A)
Lightning Direct Effects (SAE ARP 5416A, RTCA-DO-160G/23)
