Grounding and Bonding
For the efficient performance of
a lightning protection system it
is essential that a low
impedance ground be provided to
facilitate the
dissipation of the lightning
energy into the earth mass.
Because soil conditions and
seasonal patterns vary from site
to site, the methods of
grounding need to be considered
on an individual basis.
ERICO’s
equipotential ground bars,
signal reference grids, ground
plates and transient Earth
Clamps create a safe
equipotential ground plane for
the protection of the personnel
and equipment.
Connections
are often the most critical
element of grounding systems, so
the prefered method of
connection is the CADWELD
exothermic weliding process.
