This paper reports on the progress in a new project to instrument the Säntis telecommunications tower in the Saint Gallen region of Switzerland. The paper includes information on the Rogowski coils and magnetic loop sensors that will be used to measure the lightning current. In addition, information is given on the design of the control and monitoring system in the context of the particularly rough weather conditions of the site.
