Earth resistance is the measure of how easily electric current can flow from an electrode into the ground. Lower resistance ensures the current dissipates faster and more safely during a fault. This resistance depends mostly on soil resistivity. To keep the value within safe limits, the soil around the electrode ...
ESE Type Lightning Arrester, also known as Early Streamer Emission Lightning Arrester, protect buildings from direct lightning strikes. The goal of this device is simple. It increases the protection radius compared to conventional arresters, which reduces the number of arresters and down conductors needed for a building, all while ensuring ...
