Where structural steel framework is used as the down conductor, ground terminals shall be connected to columns around the perimeter of the structure at intervals averaging not more than 60 feet. Columns shall be grounded using either bonding plates having eight (8) square inches of surface contact area or by exothermically welded connections. All ground electrodes shall be interconnected with a ground loop conductor on structures that exceed 60 feet in height. The ground loop shall be sized in accordance with the specified standards and in no case shall be smaller than the main roof conductor. Equipotential Grounding Common interconnection of all grounded systems within the building shall be ensured by interconnection with the lightning protection system using main size conductor and fittings. This interconnection shall include but is not limited to the electrical service, telephone and antenna system grounds as well as all underground metallic piping systems, including water, gas and sewer. Interconnection to the gas or water line shall be made on the customer’s side of the meter. Grounded metal bodies located within the required bonding distance shall be bonded to the lightning protection system using the required bonding conductors and connections. The bonding distance shall be determined by bonding distance formula shown in the latest edition of NFPA 780. Surge Protection Surge suppression devices shall be provided at all power service entrances. These devices shall be rated for lightning protection and listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. in accordance with the latest edition of UL 1449. Surge suppression devices should be installed on entrances of conductive signal, data, and communication service by the service provider. PART 3 – EXECUTION 3.1 INSTALLATION OF LIGHTNING PROTECTION SYSTEMS The installation of the lightning protection system shall be accomplished by an experienced installation company that is UL Listed. A Certified Master Installer shall directly supervise the installation. All equipment shall be installed in a neat, workmanlike manner. The installation shall be completed in accordance with these specifications, the shop drawings provided by the lightning protection component manufacturer and applicable installation standards shown above. Install conductors with direct paths from air terminals to ground connections and, where indicated, run conductors in non-metallic raceway, Schedule 40 minimum. 3.2 CORROSION PROTECTION Use no combination of materials that may form an electrolytic couple of such nature that corrosion is accelerated in the presence of moisture, unless moisture is permanently excluded from the junction of such metals. Where unusual conditions exist that would cause deterioration or corrosion of conductors, use conductors with suitable protective coatings. Where the lightning protection system is bonded to metallic objects such as exhaust stacks, roof drains, and air handling units, use connectors designed to prevent corrosion due to differences in metals. Also, ensure that bonding does not limit access to equipment for service.

U.S. to METRIC Conversions U.S. Measure Multiplied By Equals Metric Measure Length Inches x 2.5 = centimeters Feet x 30 = centimeters Yards x 0.9 = meters Miles x 1.6 = kilometers Area Sq. inches x 6.5 = sq. centimeters Sq. feet x 0.09 = sq. meters Sq. yards x 0.8 = sq. meters Sq. miles x 2.6 = sq. kilometers Acres x 0.4 = hectares Weight Ounces x 28 = grams Pounds x 0.45 = kilograms Short tons x 0.9 = tonnes Volume Fluid ounces x 30 = millimeters Pints x 0.47 = liters Quarts x 0.95 = liters Gallons x 3.8 = liters Cubic feet x 0.03 = cubic meters Cubic yards x 0.76 = cubic meters Temperature Fahrenheit Temperature -32x5÷9

= centigrade temperature

To calculate the approximate metric measure equivalent to a known U.S. measure, simply multiply the U.S. quantity by the conversion factor in the center column. Example: 563 miles=901 kilometers, approximately. (563 x 1.6 = 900.8.)
