The same procedure is carried out till the top Layer (Layer 17).
5.5 The Specialist Lightning Protection Installer shall install suitable surge protectors at local power distribution
boards feeding vulnerable equipment, in order to protect these against transients generated downstream of
the protectors in 1, above. (These transients may be the result of inductive coupling or electrical switching.)
5.6 The protector shall be rated for a peak discharge current of no less than 10kA (8/20:s waveform) between any
two conductors (phase to neutral, phase to earth and neutral to earth).
5.7 The protector shall limit the transient voltage to below equipment susceptibility levels. Unless otherwise
stated, the peak transient let-through voltage shall not exceed 600 volts, for protectors with a nominal working
voltage of 230 or 240 volts, when tested in accordance with BS EN 62305 Part - 4 (6kV 1.2/50 µs open circuit

7 Inspection, Testing & Commissioning
7.1 In process works shall be monitored for quality of workmanship and installation against approved construction
drawings by the Electrical Engineer & Supervisor
7.2 In process works shall be monitored for quality of workmanship and installation against approved construction
drawings by the Electrical Engineer & Supervisor
7.3 Visual Inspection, Continuity Tests, and Electrode Resistance Test shall be done and recorded as per attached
formats. This document, complete with inspection and test format’s is issued for comment and approval.
7.4 A Megger complete with current calibration certification shall be used for the relevant measurements for these
works.
7.5 Earth resistance measurements for the reinforced concrete piles, used as earth electrodes, shall be tested &
recorded. Minimum permissible earth resistance value for lightning protection is to below 10 ohms.
7.6 The reinforced concrete piles shall be connected in parallel, if minimum resistance requirement is not met.
8 Measurement of earth electrodes resistance
Measurement of the resistance to earth of an earth electrode is not necessary a simple matter. While certain
fairly simple rules can be laid down. Circumstances frequent arise which make it necessary to modify them.
The resistance of an earth electrode is unique in that the terminal provided by the electrode itself is definite,
the other terminal of the resistance being theoretically at an infinite distance. In practice a measurement has
8.1 to be made which includes the greatest part, say 98% of the total resistance. There is no point in striving for a
high degree of accuracy with such a measurement since within the volume of such a resistance, there may be
considerable non-uniformity in the soil and other disturbing features. An accuracy of 2% is more than
adequate, and accuracies of the order of 5% are usually quite acceptable.
A measurement current is passed between electrodes X, the one being tested and an auxiliary current
electrode Y. The voltage drop between electrode X and a second auxiliary electrode Z is measured and the
8.2 resistance of the electrode X is then the voltage between X and Z. The source of current and the means of
metering either the current and voltage or their ratio are often, but not necessarily, combined in one device
9
Testing
9.1 On the completion of the installation or of any modification to it, the following isolated and combined
measurements and/or checks should be made and the results recorded in a lightning Protection system
logbook.
9.2 The resistance to earth of each local earth electrode and in addition the resistance to earth of the complete
earth termination system

Each local earth electrode should be measured in isolated with the test point between the down conductor
and earth electrode in the disconnected position (isolated measurement)
A further measurement should be taken with the test point in the connected position (combined
measurement) If there are any significant differences in the measurements in relation to other positions, the
reason for such differences should be investigated
9.3 The results of a visual check of all conductors bonds and joints or their measured electrical continuity
9.4 Tests should be repeated at fixed intervals, preferably not exceeding 12 months
9.5 Note : It may be advantageous to choose a period slightly shorter than 6 months in order to vary the season
in which tests are made.
9.6 Note : It is emphasized that before disconnecting a lightning protection earth, it should be tested to ensure
that it is not “live” using a sensitive voltage-testing device
10 Records
10.1 The person has to keep on site or the following records, responsible for the upkeep of the installation:
10.2 Approved shop drawings, showing the nature, dimensions, materials and position of all component parts of the
lightning protection system
10.3 Approved shop drawings, showing the nature, dimensions, materials and position of all component parts of the

10.4 The type and position of the earth electrodes, including reference electrodes
10.5 The test conditions and the result obtained.
10.6 The name of the person responsible for the installation upkeep.
10.7 A label should be attached at the origin of the electrical installation, worded as follows
10.8 “This structure is provided with a lightning protection system in accordance with BS 6651 and BSEN 50164 and
the bonding to the services and the main equip-potential bonding should be maintained accordingly
11
Maintenance
11.1 The periodic inspections and tests recommended will show what maintenance, if any is needed. Particular
attention should be given to the following :
11.2 a)Earthing

Dear Sir,
This is in reference to the above project.
In a non-isolated system, an air rod may be used to protect larger items of roof mounted
However we need to ensure that the air rods are
provided at a proper separation distance from the equipment to minimize any partial lightning
current being introduced in the equipment.
As per BS EN 62305-3 recommendations, the calculation for the separation distance is done by
using this formula:
S=
Where,
S is the separation distance

is the appropriate class of LPS
is the partitioning coefficient relating to the separation medium
is the portioning coefficient of the lightning current flowing
L is the length in metres along the air termination or down conductors, from the point where the
separation distance is to be considered to the nearest equipotential bonding point.
1. SEPARATION DISTANCE CALCULATION IN A NON ISOLATED SYSTEM
Considering the roof top of the project where the equipment are prone to direct lightning
strike
= 0.04 for LPS Class IV (BS EN 62305-3 table 10)

= 1 for air as medium (BS EN 62305-3 table 11)
= 0.44 for more than 3 down conductors (BS EN 62305-3 table 12)
L = 30 m
On computing these values in the afore said formula the separation depth is calculated as below
S=
Fig 1.1
Therefore, S = 0.317 m
Thus the air rod would need to be minimum of 0.317m away from the equipment to ensure that
flashover did not occur in the event of a lightning discharge striking the air rod (please refer Figure
1.1 for your understanding).
If the structure has a metallic framework such as steel sanctions and it is electrically continuous
then the requirement for a separation distance is no longer valid. This is because all the steelwork
is effectively bonded and as such an electrical insulation or separation distance cannot practically
be achieved.
We hope we have been able to clarify your doubts and should you need further assistance,
please do contact us.
Thanks & regards,
