g.4 Use natural components
If there are conductive elements the roof, can
make sense use these natural air-termination
systems.
What essential that there conductive con-
nection into the building interior.g. rain gutters, ornamentation, rail-
ings)
• Metallic pipes and tanks
Electrical continuity between the various parts must be
permanently guaranteed (e.g.
Characteristic data that apply irrespective the
protection class:
• Minimum thickness metal plates pipes air-
termination systems
• Materials and their conditions use
• Materials, shape and minimum dimensions air-
termination systems, down-conductors and earthers
• Minimum dimensions connection cables
