The IEC lightning risk assessment calculator is intended to assist in the analysis of various criteria to determine the risk of loss
due to lightning. It is not possible to cover each special design element that may render a structure more or less susceptible to lightning
damage. In special cases, personal and economic factors may be very important and should be considered in addition to the assessment
obtained by use of this tool. It is intended that this tool be used in conjunction with the written standard IEC62305-2.
