Guy there is a standard here AS/NZS 1768:2007(Lightning protection) which applies to trees just as it does to buildings, I don't have a copy since its not something Stephen's company offers..I have worked with companies in Brisbane that offer lightning protection and they have occaisionally installed it on very significant trees....I'm thinking perhaps Trev might have done some down South? I'll ask around and see what response I get.
