It certainly can be hooked up to the EZ-B but you'll need to ensure that the pinout of the sensor matches with the EZ-Bv4 pinout. You may have to modify a cable.
If the wire connections are correct and you have the correct I2C address and code working in ARC, it should work. If it doesn't, you would likely have to mess around with new pull-up resistor values.
I did have to modify a cable. But i am having trouble modifying the arduino code to run in ezscript. Many functions dont translate well, at least for my limited knowledge of both. Below is the code if you have any suggestions.

// Connect the IRQ and GND pin to the oscilloscope.
// uncomment the following sentences to fine tune the antenna for better performance.
// This will dispaly the antenna's resonance frequency/16 on IRQ pin (The resonance frequency will be divided by 16 on this pin)
// Tuning AS3935_CAPACITANCE to make the frequency within 500/16 kHz 3.5%
// lightning0.setLcoFdiv(0);
// lightning0.setIRQOutputSource(3);

void loop()
{
// It does nothing until an interrupt is detected on the IRQ pin.
while (AS3935IsrTrig == 0) {delay(1);}
delay(5);
// Reset interrupt flag
AS3935IsrTrig = 0;
// Get interrupt source
uint8_t intSrc = lightning0.getInterruptSrc();
if (intSrc == 1){
// Get rid of non-distance data
uint8_t lightningDistKm = lightning0.getLightningDistKm();
Serial.println("Lightning occurs!");
Serial.print("Distance: ");
Serial.print(lightningDistKm);
Serial.println(" km");

Serial.print("Intensity: ");
Serial.print(lightningEnergyVal);
Serial.println("");

Serial.println("Disturber discovered!");

You'll have to do some porting of code to translate the I2C code from the Arduino library and example code into EZ-Script or JavaScript for ARC.
I would recommend finding Arduino example code that does not use a library, those examples are the easiest to port.
I have ported a lot of Arduino code to JavaScript for ARC but I cannot offer my services in this case because I rarely have the time and resources to devote to these types of endeavors.

Please see the EZ-Bv4 datasheet for the pinout.

Maybe someone else in the community can help.
