Home / Can the lightning protection network be grounded to the distribution box
For systems located in high lightning regions, the neutral is also grounded where line arresters are installed. The need to electrically connect the grounding loop of lightning protection installed directly on the building with the grounding loop for electrical installations is described in the current regulatory documents (electrical installation code). These nVent products are sold globally under a variety of market-leading brands: nVent ERICO welded electrical connections, facility electrical protection, and rail and industrial products; nVent CADDY fixing, fastening and support products; nVent ERIFLEX low voltage power and grounding. Abstract: Bonding, Grounding and Surge Protection are integral parts of a topologically shielded lightning protection system for reasons of codes compliance, good engineeering practices and safety. This Paper describes their respective roles, with citations from important international Codes and.
As far as possible, the lightning protection conductors placed on top of or nearby outdoor equipment will be directly connected earthing rods (minimum length and cross-sections are defined at 8.7.1).
