English term

air couple (with wires)

English to Spanish Tech/Engineering Engineering (general) Aviation Obstacle Lights System
The integral design of the NAME OF CUSTOMER lights has the significant benefit of reducing the length of the high voltage cables between the discharge capacitors and the lamp to approximately 30 cm (1 ft) from 152 meter (500 ft) in the case of a 152 meter structure with the controller at the ground).
This has a substantial reduction on the possibility that a lightning discharge will create an air couple with these wires and thereby influence this part of the system.

¿reduce las posibilidades de que la descarga de un rayo cree un 'acoplamiento'? ¿'estática'? ¿?
¡Gracias!

acoplamiento electromagnético (con los alambres)

It refers to the possibility that the electromagnetic field surrounding the path taken by a lightning strike that hits the structure may cause an undesired electric current to flow in the wires to the lamp, as a result of electromagnetic coupling.

Note that no physical contact, nor an arc, is needed between the structure and the wires - the electromagnetic field travels through the air in the same way as a radio wave.
