Description
Accessory for grounding systems. The strips have a 3×3 mm cross-section, with dimensions of 1000×1000 mm (L×W), and weigh 4.5 kg. The grid is designed to improve grounding in lightning protection systems.
A copper grid will be preferred under the following conditions, compared to a lightning rod grounding system with earthing rods:
– Low Conductivity Soil: In areas where the soil is poor in natural conductors, such as rocky or sandy soils, a copper grid can provide better current dispersion.
– Ease of implementation: In rocky or very hard soils, if driving rods is difficult or even impossible, a solution based on an earth grid is often preferred.
– Large Area Needs: A grid covers a larger area, which is beneficial for larger structures or for areas requiring a wider dispersion of current.
– Renovation of an earth connection: An earth connection can sometimes be easier to renovate and maintain in compliance with standards by adding an earth grid.
– Specific Regulations: Certain standards or regulations may require the use of copper grids for safety or compliance reasons.
Each situation must be assessed individually to determine the most appropriate lightning rod grounding solution.
