(OP)
Anyone could suggest some readings on lightning protection devices for the oil tank? Thanks.

RE: Lightning protection devices

prince..

Perhaps posting on another forum might be a good idea ?

I would go to an electrical-grounding forum, or perhaps a storage tank forum.

NFPA 780, and API Rp 2003 both offer good advice.

RE: Lightning protection devices

For general reading on lightning protection principles, try poking around on the WJ Furse website:

Lightning Protection and Power Quality Forum
 Forum participants discuss of all areas of power quality - lightning protection, uninterruptible power systems, surge protection, harmonic distortion mitigation, debunking pseudo-scientific devices, etc. This is the worldwide professional forum for electrical lightning safety engineers, meteorologists, “electric shock” medical practitioners... The list is moderated to eliminate junk postings.

In "Messages", search for your area of interest such as "tank". Also peruse the :Files" section.
