Question: 2 m A 4 ko 1m soil resistivity = 10 om 3 m 100 KA 4 meter 1m B 4 ko CH 10- 2

2 m A 4 ko 1m soil resistivity = 10 om 3 

2 m A 4 ko 1m soil resistivity = 10 om 3 m 100 KA 4 meter 1m B 4 ko CH 10- 2 m Case study: A building 4 metres tall with a lightning rod 3 metres high installed on top. Persons A and B, both of them are 2 metres tall, stand 1 metre away from the building. Person A does not wear footwear (shoes), while Person B does. Explain what will happen to person A and B if a 100 KA lightning strike hits the structure under the conditions given on picture above.
