Abstract:

The Prototype HEMP Design Practice Handbook provides a systematic approach to protection of the DCS. The handbook is based on a generalized protection procedure which parallels the programed development cycle of systems. This protection procedure employs the zonal characterization of facilities and utilizes nested shields, regional grounding, penetration and aperture treatments in the form of design practices as the primary protection measure. The handbook is separated into two parts. Part 1 contains introductory material, the protection procedure and use of the protection elements. Part 2 contains appendices of detailed resources. Author
