External lightning protection. Elements.

External lightning protection consists of several kinds of elements:

  • lightning rod - an element, "assuming" lightning.
    Conventional lightning rod - is a vertical sharp-edge pin, directed to the sky and having a certain height, which is calculated so that the protected buildings would be located underneath. The design of this type is usually called "air terminal - mast". It is mounted on the wall / facade or chimney / air channel with special holders.
air terminal mast
  • active lightning rod - the main task of such a lightning rod is to "artificially" accept and safely drain the lightning current into the ground, advancing its "natural" development and thereby protecting many times larger area compared to the traditional methods in the event of a dangerous thunderstorm,
Active lightning rod (ESE lightning rod)
  • down conductors - elements transmitting the lightning current from the lightning rod to the grounding device.
    Down conductors are located on the roof and walls of the building in a certain way, "descending" to the ground. They are thick enough to withstand strong heating at the transfer of heavy currents.
Copper-bonded wire
  • clamps - fastening elements intended for fixing of the down conductors to the surface.
Clamp on the gutter for the down conductor
  • Counters of lightning strikes - devices designed to detect the passing lightning discharges over the down conductor.
