Planning an installation
When planning the lightning protection of buildings, take the following
aspects and possible activities into account:
– Determine the protection area, the required height and the arrange-
ment of the air-termination rods, according to DIN EN 62305-3 (IEC
62305-3, VDE 0185-305-3).
– Calculate the necessary separation distance (see "6.2 Calculating,
checking and maintaining the separation distance" on page 25).
– Calculate the number of isCon
tems according to the lightning protection class and required conduct-
or length (see "6.3 Conductor lengths and lightning protection class-
es" on page 25).
– Check the carrying capacity of the mounting area, on which the
isCon
system is mounted.

– Additional measures are required for installations in potentially ex-
plosive areas (see "6.4 Installation in potentially explosive areas" on
page 27) and on soft-covered roofs (see "6.5 Soft-covered roofs"
on page 29).
– When erecting air-termination rods, take the appropriate wind-speed
zones into account. You can find further information in the OBO TBS
lightning protection guide and national directives.
– Ensure that there is equipotential bonding (see "7.8 Attaching the
potential connection" on page 48).
Y ou can find additional detailed planning aids on lightning and surge pro-
tection systems in the OBO TBS lightning protection guides (order no.:
9131970).
T o guarantee the functionality of the isCon
tested components of the OBO delivery range must be used.
