The electrically conductive connection between the air-termination system and the earth-termination system is the down conductor system. The purpose of down-conductor systems is to safely transport intercepted lightning current to the earth-termination system without causing excessive temperature spikes that could harm the structure. It must be mounted to ensure that ...
A lightning arrester protects the electrical network and the structures from lightning. When lightning strikes, it creates massive destruction and damages the equipment. A lightning arrester or a surge diverter protects the equipment at the substation. The lightning arrester bifurcates the abnormal high voltage to the ground without affecting the ...
Lightning – a natural phenomenon as breathtaking as it is deadly. It’s a spark that bridges the gap between negatively and positively charged sections of a cloud, and its power can cause significant damage, especially to tall buildings. However, thanks to modern engineering, we have a defence mechanism against this ...
Lightning arrester rods, surge arresters, or lightning conductors are metal rods installed on a building for lightning protection. They protect structures or substations from the travelling waves of lightning and divert the abnormally high voltage to the ground. They are made from copper and brass alloy which are good conductors ...
Surge protection devices play a vital role in voltage fluctuations or variations. These fluctuations are the most common behaviours observed in any electrical system. Voltage change can vary from small voltage fluctuations for a short duration to a complete blackout for an extended period. When the voltage drops below the ...
Follow us on LinkedIn for regular updates on everything about Lightning Arresters! Well, we all are aware of the lightning strike that occurs during the rainy season. But are we aware of the fact that we need to protect our structure and electrical system from it too? Yes, there is ...
Follow us on LinkedIn for regular updates on Lightning Protection and our Lightning Arresters! What Causes Lightning? Most lightning never reaches the ground, they just stay within the cloud where they originated. Sometimes a charge may escape the cloud and create a magnificent piece of art for photographers along with ...
Lightning Protection for my Rooftop Solar System? Follow us on LinkedIn for the latest updates Rooftop Solar PV Plants which are placed at the top of buildings making them susceptible to direct lightning strikes require protection using correctly designed lightning protection using lightning arresters and surge protection to ensure long ...
The mesh method is one of the three routes for lightning protection system design defined by IEC 62305, the international standard for lightning protection design. After the first step of determining the class of lightning protection decided by the Risk Assessment, the lightning protection system design can be done using ...
Lightning protection for buildings is a very crucial aspect of safety. The Rolling sphere method is one of the three routes for lightning protection system design defined by IEC 62305, the international standard for lightning protection design. After the first step of determining the class of lightning protection decided by ...
