ABSTRACT:
A lightning strike mitigation system for protecting a surface includes an inner insulating layer adjacent a surface to be protected, an outer insulating layer, and an intermediate layer formed from an electrically conductive material between the inner and outer insulating layers. The inner and outer insulating layers may be formed from an ablative insulating material containing no metal fill, an ablative insulating material containing a 15% Ni fill, or an ablative insulating material containing a 30% Ni fill. The electrically conductive material may be a mesh material or a foil material formed from an electrically conductive material or materials.
