In the phenomena of lightning , buildings are subjected to the danger of being struck by it
causing catastrophic damage. To prevent such mishaps a metal conductor or rod is mounted on the
top of the building which is electrically connected to the earth through a metallic strip or
wire. In case of a lightning strike , lightning will preferentially strike the arrester, and be
conducted harmlessly to the ground, instead of passing through the building.
- Lightning Spike Rod:- Lightning rod
made of Copper which is mounted on top of a building intercept the incoming lightning
discharge.
- Down Conductor:- A down conductor
provides the connecting path between the rod and the earth pit for the discharged current to
travel safely into the ground.
- Earthing: In Lightning discharge, a
chemical Earthing (grounding) system is of importance to ground the discharged current.
- Low cost and high durability.
- Easy installation.
- Available in 2 meter and 3 meter
length.
