Equipotential bonding according IEC 60364-4- 41
and IEC 60364-5-54
Protective conductors must protected suitable
manner against mechanical damage, chemical or
electrochemical destruction well against electro-
dynamic and thermodynamic forces.
Equipotential busbars and earthing clamps are key
components this kind installation. the context
of lightning protection equipotential bonding, these
must fulfil the requirements and undergo tests as
defined IEC 62561-1. Connections for testing purposes are permit-
ted.
