Lightning Protection Measures Required For Stainless Steel Water Tanks On Rooftops

1. Lightning protection strips must not be connected to stainless steel water tanks or pipes. The instantaneous voltage of lightning is very high, exceeding several hundred thousand volts, which can cause electric shock.
2. The top and bottom ends of metal pipes and metal objects laid vertically in lightning protection buildings should be connected to lightning protection devices. That is, the stainless steel water tank body.
3. Non metallic pipelines emitting flammable and explosive gases on the roof should be within the protection range of the lightning arrester.
4. The grounding device shall be inspected and accepted based on technical data such as construction drawings, inspection reports, and construction supervision reports.
5. Raise the lightning rod to place the stainless steel water tank within a 45 ° angle below the lightning rod.
6. Pay attention to adjusting the grid size, material specifications, installation position, completeness, height, support card spacing, construction process (welding process, anti-corrosion treatment), laying method (concealed or exposed), and treatment method at settlement (or expansion) joints of lightning protection strips (nets); The installation position, material specifications, spacing, construction process (welding process, anti-corrosion treatment), and testing card (disconnection card) of the down conductor; The material specifications for the connection between roof metal components and lightning protection devices (the cross-sectional area of the connecting conductor is not less than 48 mm2), and the construction process (welding process, anti-corrosion treatment).
