Description
Empty stud for fixing lightning rod conductors
The empty pad is made of an anti-UV plastic envelope. It must be filled with concrete, sand or any other material to ensure its stability thanks to its weight. The plot is supplied with a plastic base. The empty concrete pad is fitted with a conductor fixing and can receive a flat or round lightning rod conductor.
Support and Stabilization of Down Conductors :
The pad serves as a solid support for downhill conductors in lightning rod systems. These conductors, which carry the lightning's electrical current from the point of capture (like a lightning rod pole) to the grounding system, must be held securely in place.
The empty pad is more economical to purchase and during transport with its low weight compared to the solid concrete block.
These blocks are placed approximately every 50 cm and are used to support the conductor during its horizontal movement such as on flat roofs.
