Description
Mechanical connection for tape conductors. It is designed to allow the departure of conductors in a “crow’s feet” grounding conductor earthing system configuration. The product is made of stainless steel as well as its screws. It measures 12x60x60 mm and weighs 0.614 kg. This product complies with EN 62561-1, IEC 62305 and NFC 17-102:2011, as well as equivalent standards in other countries.
Main functions and uses:
– Connection of Multiple Conductors: This device allows several flat conductors to be connected to a single grounding source. This is useful for distributing lightning current or electrical charges in a balanced manner across multiple paths.
– Balanced Current Distribution: By allowing the departure of several conductors from a single point, the “Crow's Foot” helps to distribute the electrical current evenly. This is crucial to avoid overloading on a single conductor and to increase grounding efficiency.
– Use in Lightning Protection Systems: In lightning protection systems, it is used to connect the capture system (such as lightning rods) to the earthing elements, ensuring adequate distribution of the lightning current in the ground.
– Ease of Installation and Maintenance: The “Crow’s Foot” design simplifies the installation and maintenance of lightning rod grounding systems, allowing easy assembly and easy access for inspections or repairs .
