ERICO reserves the right to alter any information and specifications contained herein at any time without notice. Users should check with nVent ERICO to ensure they have the latest edition of this manual. During thunderstorm conditions, when the lightning down leader is approaching ground level, an upward leader may be created by any surface. - Page 4 4. The design practices are outlined in the Standard NF C 17-102 and determine air terminal placement, mast height and protection level calculations. 5. It is essential to adhere to local standards and regulations for relevant local down conductor and grounding requirements. IP9032_A © 2022 nVent All Rights Reserved Page | 4...
- Page 5 ERICO System 1000: NFC 17-102 Standard Principles nVent ERICO System 1000 components are intended for use in ESE-type lightning protection systems that comply with the NFC 17-102 standard. “This standard is applicable to Early Streamer Emission lightning protection systems provided to protect facilities and open areas against direct lightning impact.

5. Verify the ESE terminal and attach the terminal to the top of the mast. 6. Raise the mast into position and secure. 7. The nVent ERICO System 1000 must be at least two meters higher than any point or object on the structure it is intended to protect. -
Page 8: Ese Air Terminals
ESE Air Terminals nVent ERICO ESE air terminals are rated for ∆T 25µs, 40µs, 45µ and 60µs triggering time. The function of the rings at the top of the terminals is to easily distinguish the rated efficiency. No ring corresponds to ∆T 25µs, two rings to ∆T 40µs or 45µs and four rings to ∆T 60µs. Do not install nVent ERICO ESE air terminals without checking the correct trigger rating based on the lightning protection system design. - Page 9 Any guying has been properly secured at the mast anchor points. d. The nVent ERICO SI ESE air terminal is NOT used as a slinging point. e. When slinging the mast, ensure that the slings or harnesses cannot foul or bend the mast and / or the nVent ERICO ESE air terminal.

Page 24: Grounding System
When driving ground rods, it is advisable to use nVent ERICO ground rod drivers and drive sleeves to prevent mushrooming on the top of the rod. When coupling rods, use compression type ground rod couplers. When bonding the grounding system components, use the recommended methods suggested below: 1. - Page 25 Figure 11 Figure 12 IP9032_A © 2022 nVent All Rights Reserved Page | 25...

Page 26: Lowering Ground Resistance
Figure 13 Lowering Ground Resistance 1. nVent ERICO Ground Enhancement Material (GEM) PN GEM25A, is recommended and supplied when the existing soil mass has a high resistivity. 2. GEM enhances the overall grounding system by creating a larger and more conductive volume adjacent to the ground rod, providing multiple paths of dissipation, which increases the uniform distribution of energy. -
