The best lug for connecting rods to flat tape (strip) conductors:
These lugs provide the mechanical and electrical connection between a 30x… conductor and a 16 or 19 mm earthing rod. Triangular lightning rod grounding connections (Type B) are compliant and durable when used with these forged brass lugs.
This terminal is designed for use with strip conductors (30x…) and grounding rods with a maximum diameter of 19 mm. Made of brass, this terminal measures 40x40x15 mm and weighs 0.116 kg. It complies with UL SPEC 467 and IEC 62305 (and by extension NF C 17:102:2011), ensuring its reliability in lightning protection systems.
The use of brass lugs in lightning protection systems and grounding installations:
– High Conductivity: Brass is an excellent conductor of electricity, which is essential for the efficient and rapid transfer of electrical charges to earth in the event of a lightning strike.
– Corrosion Resistance: Brass is highly resistant to corrosion, an important property for materials used outdoors and exposed to varying weather conditions.
– Durability: Brass lugs are robust and durable, ensuring a long service life, even in harsh environmental conditions.
– Reliable Connections: They provide a reliable and secure connection between flat conductors (strips) and grounding rods, which is vital for maintaining the integrity of the grounding system.
– Compliance with Standards: Because these lugs meet international standards, their use ensures that the lightning protection installation complies with safety and efficiency requirements.
