lst Thread measure the insulator
Further type tests are described IEC 62561-8
and contain the following points:
• Documentation
• Labelling
• Construction
• Ultraviolet light
• Corrosion
• Extraction force
• Bend test
• Impact test
• Electrical testing

2.2 Insulated external lightning protection sys-
tem with insulators
An insulator should keep conductors routing lightning
current distance from metallic structures and elec-
trical systems, provide insulation against the induced
voltage case lightning strike and resist the en-
vironmental loads, such ultraviolet radiation and
soiling, and the tension and pressure forces resulting
from snow, ice and wind. Instead km, the manufacturer states the ef-
fective length correction factor kx, which confirmed
in type test
