Product Details

Solid round aluminium alloy conductor for the exposed part of a lightning protection system: air termination mesh, roof and parapet runs, facade rings and down conductors. Light enough to form by hand, which suits long roof runs.

8 mm

Diameter

50.3 mm²

Cross-section

0.136 kg/m

Mass

Class I to IV

LPS class

Why this conductor

Meets the standard minimum. 50.3 mm² against the 50 mm² minimum of IS/IEC 62305-3 Table 6 for air termination and down conductors.
Light on the roof. 0.136 kg/m, for long roof and facade runs.
Easy to lay. Semi-hard temper: straightens by hand and holds its line on a mesh.
Nothing to peel or age. Bare UV-resistant surface, no coating.
All protection classes. Suitable for LPS Class I to IV.

For use in air only

Aluminium stays above ground. It is not buried in soil or cast in concrete, and it changes to copper, copper-bonded steel, GI or stainless steel through a bimetal connector before the earth termination.
