In-situ tests – triggered strikes
Triggered strike tests are performed outside
using a specially designed platform. Test campaigns are
generally performed in areas that are particularly prone
to lightning strikes, and are carried out at the most
favourable time of year.
Rockets are launched from a launch pad; trailing a wire connected to the ground.
The wire triggers a lightning discharge.
This method has the advantage of being able to collect several measurements
per campaign.
