• Indonesia is located in a tropical region which has a high frequency of lightning strike. The 214 radar site is an area that is susceptible to lightning strikes since it has many high buildings. These buildings are equipped with electrical power system and other communication equipment that are sensitive to lightning. Objective of this research was to analyze the external lightning protection system based on radar tower placement of air terminations. The analysis was performed by using a cone protection and rolling sphere methods. Analysis using cone protection method concludes that the addition of air termination height to 35 m in order to protect the building tower and radar antenna. Application of rolling sphere method as far as 110 m radius obtained so as to protect the tower and radar antenna from the danger of lightning.
