The ERITECH ® SYSTEM 2000 lightning protection system is<br />
comprised of these principal components:<br />
• Air Termination Network<br />
• Downconductors<br />
• Grounding System<br />
• Bonding<br />
This Illustration is not drawn to scale, nor does it portray an actual or typical application.<br />
It is designed to illustrate some of the major components of the ERITECH ® SYSTEM 2000 Lightning<br />
<strong>Protection</strong> System and their relationship with one another.<br />
Air terminal placement is designed using the computer aided design to<br />
BS6651, NFC 17-100, AS1768 or NFPA 780. This ensures the most effective<br />
placement of air terminations on the structure. Downconductors<br />
are positioned to provide the most direct path from the air termination<br />
to a low impedance grounding system, to help ensure safe and<br />
effective dissipation of the lightning impulse. Equipotential bonding<br />
of all circuits and conductors is necessary to reduce ground potential<br />
differences and to limit equipotential damage.<br />
