GI Lightning Arrestor

At RK Smelting, we specialize in providing high-quality Copper Lightning Arrestors for superior protection against electrical hazards. Our arrestors are designed with advanced technology and high-grade materials to ensure safety and durability. Here’s a detailed look at our Copper Lightning Arrestors.

Product Overview of Copper Lightning Arrestor

A Copper Lightning Arrestor is an essential safety device used to protect buildings, electrical systems, and equipment from lightning strikes. It works by diverting the surge of electrical current safely to the ground, preventing damage to structures and devices.

Material Composition and Features

Our Copper Lightning Arrestor is made from premium materials such as pure copper and galvanized iron (GI) to ensure long-lasting performance. The GI lightning arrester is coated with a zinc layer, which adds corrosion resistance and extends the product’s lifespan. The copper arrestor includes sharp spikes and a spherical ball at the top for optimal performance.

• Dimensions: 1 meter in length, ⅝ inches in diameter
• Base Size: 9 x 9 cm
• Zinc Coating: 250 microns for corrosion prevention
• Primary Material: High-quality iron with zinc coating

Working Principle of Copper Lightning Arrestor

The Copper Lightning Arrestor functions by providing a low-resistance path for the surge of electricity caused by a lightning strike. It works as follows:

• The top part of the arrestor features five sharp spikes.
• When lightning strikes within the coverage area, the arrestor channels the surge through its body to the wire, which then directs it to the ground, protecting the structure from electrical damage.
• Coverage: 45 degrees from the peak, typically covering an area of 3 meters. This can be increased by using a taller arrestor.

Installation Process

The installation of our Copper Lightning Arrestor is straightforward and hassle-free. Here’s how it works:

• Install a Mast: Position the mast at the top of the building or structure.
• Attach the FRP Mast: Use an FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic) mast as a non-conductive material to connect the arrestor.
• Mount the Arrestor: Fix the copper lightning arrester securely to the FRP mast.
• Connect the Grounding Wire: Attach a grounding wire to the arrestor to safely direct the electrical surge to the ground.
