Installation Guide
Installing DK8-BX10 ESE lightning rod shell comply with national standard of P.R China(GB50057-94)-Code for design protection of structures against lightning.The actual construction shall comply with National Standard of P.R China(GB 50169-92)Code for construction and acceptance of grounding connection electric equipment installation engineering. Do not install or test the lightning rod in a thunderstorm weather!
a.Please notify us the technical parameters of your lightning rod mast when ordering, so that the factory can select the right interconnection splice for you to install components successfully.
b.The thickness of lightning rod’s sleeve shall not less than 4mm, which can be used as a down-conductor. There shall be two points symmetric connecting the earth electrode.
c.When the structure’s lightning protection system has more than 1 down-conductor, breaking of contact with insulation protection for each down-conductor is recommended. And the breaking of contact shall be set at 1.5~1.8m high from ground of the conductor.
d.The joint between lightning rod and down-conductor shall be welded.
e.The construction order for the earth-termination system of lightning rod shall be from top to bottom. The common earthing system shall be installed first, and then come to the down-conductor, and the lightning rod is the last step.
f.Do not touch the main capture head and initiative discharge fang when installing!
