Technical FAQs 4

How should a lightning protection system be maintained?

An inspection and maintenance procedure is recommended, and may be conducted by the system installer, an authority. Keeping the lightning protection system up to date with current standards ensures the greatest level of safety. When a lightning protection system is upgraded, as-built drawings should be revised to document modifications.

Can lightning protection system components be concealed in building construction?

176) Lightning protection system components may be concealed in building construction. A lightning protection system is a low resistance continuous metallic path designed for the purpose of transferring lightning from the top of a structure into the earth.

How many connections should a ground bar have to a lightning protection system?

A ground bar designed for interconnection of building grounded systems shall have one connection to the lightning protection system. A continuous metal water pipe system designed for interconnection of building grounded systems shall have one connection to the lightning protection system.

Why should a steel superstructure be included in a lightning protection system?

Incorporating a steel superstructure into the lightning protection system provides columns and beams and intermediate connections to maximize splitting the lightning and thus minimize difference of potential problems internally.
