Description:
lightning protection cable is made of rope lay stranded Aluminum conductors. The conductors are annealed for extra strength. The rope lay stranded design of this product makes for better cable flexibility.

Applications:
This cable is used in lightning protection systems as well as in grounding systems. Lightning strikes in residential areas can cause homes to lose power or can overload a home’s circuit board, causing a surge that knocks out electrical appliances. In farm buildings, the damage can be even worse, destroying stored crops, killing livestock, and starting fires. The typical duty of this cable in a standard lightning protection system is to transfer a lightning strike from a metal rod placed on top of a building to the ground rod that is buried in the earth. This way, the intense voltage of the lightning is redirected harmlessly into the ground rather than absorbed into the building’s structure. This type of system is often used in farm buildings and other rural structures.
