cording 50522. This corres-
ponds test class H. After a
conditioning phase lasting days, the components
are impacted with three lightning strikes.29).c.
Components for conductors along which the lightning
current can spread (at least two conductors) and con-
nections the earthing system are tested with Iimp
50 (10/350).

BET lightning current generator and BET test mark
2.27 and 2. The lightning
protection components for air-termination systems are
tested with Iimp 100 (10/350). Mechanical tests, lightning current tests
and compliance with the material-specific tensile
strength are some examples here. This corresponds test class N.
Table 2.8 Testing lightning protection
system components
Connection components
Components for lightning protection systems are
tested for functionality according IEC/EN 62561-1
– Requirements for connection components. The standardised
specifications regarding tensile strength, corrosion
resistance and the minimum product dimensions for
conductor material must tested, depending the
material and product type, and complied with (see
also Table 2.
Earth rods and conductor material
All types earth rods and their couplings for lightning
protection must tested according IEC/EN
62561-2. Additional short-circuit cur-
rent tests with currents prove the use for the
earthing power installations exceeding a. Here, they must withstand numerous load
tests according conditioning that represents artifi-
cial ageing.30: Test classes connecting components
