- Practically everything you need to know to purchase and install lightning protection for a building. Almost any handyman can do this. Save big money and do it yourself.
Tis also very critical that the LPS be bonded to the existing grounding of electric/ communications systems to ensure the they all rise & fall at the same potential ⚡⚡⚡
Can you repeat that in lay mans terms.
Good video! How did you determine every 20'? Using the rolling sphere LDL measurement of 20M radius for level 1 highest protection, that would be every 60' and the corrners are the most probable lightening strike.
Thanks
I was surprised that you had purchased a ground rod driver for a hammer drill then used a sledgehammer to drive the rod.
It was just easier.
So the wire can be touching the house, even on the roof? Is it because of coppers conductivity?
The electricity takes the shortest rout to the ground. This is what the experts who sell the products told me to do.
Might be a dumb question but would this set up work on a tent trailer (hard top) to help increase its safety during a thunderstorm?
As long as you drive the ground rod in properly.
What kind of cable
Is half inch copper cable a standard in every state? Upstate Ny
I have no idea.
👍👍
lovely, but can i pass the copper wire inside the ceiling?
I would not do that. Could start a fire if lightening strikes.
The professional did that in this video: ruclips.net/video/J2Zw9q8A-Jo/видео.html
Hey guys.
What gauge is the wire?
Thanks
Look on the website lighteningrod.com
@@off-gridhomesteading7269 GREAT HELP, IT WOULD TAKE LESS TIME AND ENERGY IF YOU JUST GIVE THE SIZE OFF THE WIRE......IF YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT SIZE IS IT RIGHT?
I'd like to know exactly how and why a lightning rod works to see if I can scale this
