Home / How to ground a distribution box for lightning protection
26 mm 2 (10 AWG) ground wire must be used, and in all other markets a 6 mm 2 must be used. This section at the ZANDZ website is intended for the specialists engaged in design and estimates of grounding and lightning protection systems for various facilities. Today, we're diving deep into the world of distribution box grounding, breaking down the standards, and shining a light on those sneaky mistakes that even experienced electricians sometimes make. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, this comprehensive guide will give you practical. Lightning discharges can take place from one cloud to another, or between a cloud and the ground. Lightning – one of the "electrometeor-s" – generally occurs during thunderstorms, where it is accompanied by thunder.
