| Summary: | Indonesians have been using trains as the main means of public transportation besides buses and airplanes. Railway transportation such as Electric Railroad (Kereta Rel Listrik; KRL), Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) and Light Rail Transit (LRT), which mostly travel on land, underground, and elevate above the surface have been installed and operated in Indonesia. The prevention of interference is a must to ensure the operational continuity of the railway transportation system.
However, the problem of lightning in the railway transportation system always arises and disrupts the continuity of train operations. In the worst case, if this problem is not handled properly, it could shut down the affected train station or even threaten the life of living beings. Problem-solving methods have been implemented which come from any kind of source, but it does not give any satisfactory result to solve the problem.
Researches have been conducted on several railway stations in DAOP 1 Jakarta and in 2013 the lightning protection system in Bogor Station was repaired. As a result, the outcome is satisfying as the lightning problem in Bogor Station is reduced. To prevent the lightning problem resurface, those systems should be standardized and guidance of the standard is required to assist the understanding of this.
