INSTRUCTION SHEET
Installation Guidelines
This manual is a guide to the installation, operation and maintenance of the nVent
ERICO SYSTEM 1000 Lightning Protection System. It assumes that the system to
be installed has been designed by an authorized nVent representative. The system
design will include:
• Grounding systems design – a configuration should be designed as a result of
soil resistivity analysis.
• Downconductor routes - chosen to avoid other services maintain minimum
bending radius of 20 cm (8 inches) or greater and minimize downconductor run
length.
• Downconductor securing requirements.
• LPSD - CAD analysis design software which determines terminal placement,
mast &amp; height requirements as well as protection level calculation.
All of the above are recommended for a successful installation. If there is any doubt
about any of the points mentioned, please contact nVent or its nearest
representative for clarification.
For additional details on installing your nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000, please refer
to nVent’s technical notes and the French standard NFC17-102. It is also
recommended to adhere to local standards for relevant local downconductor and
grounding requirements.
Warning - Do not attempt to install the nVent
ERICO SYSTEM 1000 during periods of
lightning activity.
.
.
Installation
The recommended order of installation is as follows:
1. Full installation of the grounding system.
2. Full installation of the downconductor(s).
3. Termination of the downconductor(s) to the grounding system.
4. Terminate the top of the downconductor(s) to the nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000
mast.
5. 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 on the structure it is intended to protect.
8. The resistance of the lightning protection grounding system must be less than 10
ohms. This should be measured without downconductor(s) connected and without
interconnection to other grounding systems.
Operation
The nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000 lightning protection system requires no user
operation: it is completely automatic in operation.
1. The nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000 becomes active only during storm activity.
2. The system does not require any external power requirements or replacement
components for normal operation.
Maintenance
It is essential that the nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000 Lightning Protection System be
regularly maintained. Maintenance should be undertaken after each known strike to
the nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000 or at least once per year or if any changes or
additions have been made to the structure.
Do not attempt maintenance during
potential lightning activity.
.
Maintenance should be undertaken as follows:
1. Check that the building is the same physical shape and that no additional
structures such as antennae, advertising signs, satellite dishes, building maintenance
units or similar have been installed within 2 m (80 in.) height of the nVent ERICO
SYSTEM 1000.
2. Inspect the nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000 terminal to ensure that it is not dented or
physically damaged in any way.
3. Inspect the finial tip on top of the nVent ERICO SYSTEM 1000 to ensure that it is
not excessively burnt, deformed or missing.
4. Check that the mast is securely attached to the structure. Check that the guys are
secure and undamaged. Replace if necessary. Check that all fastenings are secure
and tight.
5. Look for signs of damage to the downconductor (whether by lightning, careless
handling, vandalism or other causes).
6. Check that the Lightning Event Counter is secured and if the display is registering
a reading, then record the reading and date.
7. Ensure the grounding resistance is less than 10 ohms.
8. Check the continuity of all bonding conductors.
WARNING
1. nVent ERICO products shall be installed and used only as indicated in nVent
ERICO product instruction sheets and training materials. Instruction sheets are
available at www.erico.com and from your nVent ERICO customer service
representative.
2. nVent ERICO products must never be used for a purpose other than the purpose
for which they were designed or in a manner that exceeds specified load ratings.
3. All instructions must be completely followed to ensure proper and safe installation
and performance.
4. Improper installation, misuse, misapplication or other failure to completely follow
nVent’s instructions and warnings may cause product malfunction, property damage,
serious bodily injury and death.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: All governing codes and regulations and those required
by the job site must be observed. Always use appropriate safety equipment such as
eye protection, hard hat, and gloves as appropriate to the application.
