This article provides the implementation procedure, the validation, and some considerations on the computational efforts of the analytical expressions developed for the lightning electromagnetic fields presented in the companion paper. The validation is presented with different configurations in terms of channel-base current, ground conductivity, and distance to the lightning channel, comparing the obtained results with the numerical integration of the classical formulas. The comparative analysis shows a perfect agreement between the proposed analytical approach and reference numerical simulations. Moreover, the computational effort of the proposed method is discussed, focusing the attention on the choice of the points in which the channel has to be divided in order to maximize the CPU time savings without losing accuracy.
