Conventional Lightning Protection System
Conventional Lightning Protection System
A Conventional Lightning Rod (Spike Arrester) or lightning conductor is a metal rod or conductor mounted on top of a building and electrically connected to the ground through a wire or earthing copper strips, to protect the building in the event of a lightning strike. If lightning strikes the building, then according to laws of physics, it will preferentially strike the lightening protection rod in lucknow, and be conducted harmlessly to ground through the wire, instead of passing through the building, where it could start a fire or cause electrocution.
A conventional spike lightning protection rod is a single component in a lightning protection system. In such a system, lightening protection rods Lucknow are placed at regular intervals on the highest portions of a structure, a lightning protection system typically includes a rooftop network of electrical conductors, multiple conductive paths from the roof to the ground earthing, bonding connections to metallic objects within the structure and a grounding network. The rooftop lightning rod is a metal strip or rod, usually made of copper or aluminum and down path is maed by Copper/Aluminium/GI strips or Wires.
Lightning protection systems are installed on structures, trees, monuments, bridges or water vessels to protect from lightning damage. Individual lightning rods are sometimes called finials, air terminals or strike termination devices.

Features
Conventional Lightning Protection System Installation Chart
• Exceptional electrical dissipation characteristics.
• No antenna and beacon interference.
• 180 mph survival wind speed.
• Low cost, replaceable dissipating tips.
Spike Lightning Arrestors in Lucknow are a very efficient hybrid lightning dissipater. When operating as a shield it reduces the potential between the tower and storm cell by transferring electrical charge to the adjacent ionizing air molecules. This transference represents dissipation of ion charge or the controlled leakage of the charge, thus reducing the probability of a lightning strike. If the electric charge accumulation rate far exceeds the dissipation rate the spike arrestor will divert a lightning strike away from the protected equipment and toward a safe, predetermined path to earth.
Conventional Lightning Protection System comprises:
Lightning Rod (interception system):- lightning rod (Spike arrester) or lightning conductor is a metal rod made of Copper, GI, and SS, which is mounted on top of a building for discharge of lightning current from cloud.
Down Conductor (Arrester):- A conductor is a material which contains movable electric charges. In metallic conductors such as copper or aluminum, GI the movable charged particles are electrons and its help to make fast discharge of Lightning energy. Present in flat as well as round. This conductor is connected between Lightning rod and earth pit for making a discharge path.
Earthing: In Lightning discharge, a chemical earthing (grounding) system defines the electrical potential of the conductors relative to that of the Earth's conductive surface. Lightning protection systems are special grounding systems designed to safely conduct the extremely high voltage currents associated with lightning strikes.
