Tailored Materials for Every Project Nature

The selection of materials used in lightning protection systems is critically important to ensure system effectiveness and long-term reliability. Choosing the wrong materials can lead to serious technical failures and safety risks.

& all needed accessories

Galvanized steel

& all needed accessories

stainless steel

Air terminals ,tape , round conductor
& all needed accessories

Here’s why proper material selection matters:

1. Electrochemical Compatibility & Corrosion Prevention

• Using dissimilar metals (e.g., copper with aluminum or galvanized steel) can lead to galvanic corrosion, especially at connection points.
• This corrosion weakens the system over time and can result in loss of continuity and system failure.

 

2. Electrical Conductivity

• Materials must have low electrical resistance to effectively conduct the high currents from lightning strikes.
• Substandard materials may not safely carry lightning energy, increasing the risk of fire, equipment damage, or injury.

3. Durability and Environmental Resistance

• Lightning protection components are often installed outdoors and must withstand harsh weather conditions over years.
• Inappropriate materials may rust, crack, or degrade, compromising the system’s functionality.

4. Compliance with International Standards

• Standards like IEC 62305 clearly define acceptable materials and specifications.
• Non-compliance can lead to rejection of the installation by consultants or inspectors and could void warranties or insurance.

5. System Compatibility

• All components—air terminals, down conductors, bonding systems, and earth terminations—must be made from compatible materials to ensure proper integration and performance.
• Incompatible materials may result in weak points or ineffective connections.

Certified Materials, Certified Protection

To ensure the quality and reliability of materials used in lightning protection systems, several critical tests must be conducted in accordance with recognized international standards. These tests verify the material’s electrical, mechanical, and environmental performance, ensuring long-term system safety and compliance.
