FAA-STD-019D, FAA STANDARD, LIGHTNING AND SURGE PROTECTION, GROUNDING, BONDING, AND SHIELDING REQUIREMENTS FOR FACILITIES AND ELECTRONICS EQUIPMENT (9 AUG 2002)., This document mandates standard configurations and procedures for lightning protection, surge and transient protection, grounding, bonding and shielding. All construction of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) operatio nal facilities and the electronic equipment installed therein shall conform to this standard. This document defines minimum requirements for all FAA facilities. The specific needs of any facility may exceed these minimum requirements. These needs may be influenced by the equipment to be installed at the site, the configuration of the structures and location of the equipment, and by the physical environment present at the location. The interface between contractor owned equipment or electronic equipment not used for operational purposes (administrative local area network (LAN), administrative telephone, etc.) and the operational facility shall be in accordance with this document. This standard applies to new construction and modifications to existing facilities, particularly when required for the installation of electronic equipment. The use of shall in this document indicates mandatory compliance. However, in certain cases it may not be technically feasible to implement certain requirements. In these cases, a National Airspace System (NAS) Change Proposal (NCP) must be submitted with adequate justification and technical documentation and approved by the NAS Configuration Control Board (CCB) before a deviation is permitted. This standard contains six sections. Section 1 details the scope and purpose of the standard. Section 2 lists reference documents. Section 3 gives requirements for surge and transient protection, lightning protection, the EES (EES), the electronic multipoint ground system (MPG), the electronic single point ground system (SPG), and National Electrical Code (NEC) compliance. Section 4 provides quality assurance requirements. Section 5, “Preparation for Delivery”, does not apply to this document. Section 6 contains notes, definitions, acronyms, and abbreviations.
