Whilst other Divisions are providing (by nature of their work) components of the lightning
protection system, the contractor is responsible for the overall system. This includes the
supervision and testing the provision of dedicated reinforcing bars and also the bonding of the
building cladding system to the network of down tapes and equipotential conductors.
Where necessary, engage a specialist to undertake the design, installation, testing and
commissioning of the lightning protection system.
MEP contractor
The MEP contractor shall assume responsibility for the overall system including:
2. Linking the conductor system to the structural steelwork and reinforcing bars.
3. Testing the whole system in conjunction with the cladding and structural package
contractors.
5. Miscellaneous bonds to structural steelwork, spire structure, glazing mullions and any
other exposed metallic conductive parts.
6. Linking the substation earth bar network to the lightning protection system.

1. Certain individual down conductors shall be effectively bonded to suitable 3.2m long
by 16mm diameter earth rods manufactured from hard drawn copper rod. Each section
shall be complete with internal screws and socket. The earth reference electrode shall
be installed not more than 1.00m away from the building with the earth reference
electrode head located not less than 500mm below the ground level. Final connection
of the down conductor to the earth reference electrode shall be made by means of a
pressure type connector clamp.

2. The Contract shall include for the supply and delivery of inspection pits manufactured
as detailed in the attached Specification Section and/or drawings, these to be handed
over to the contractor for installation. An inspection pit shall be supplied for each earth
termination. Heavy duty covers suitable to withstand vehicular traffic shall be provided
for pits located in the roadway areas. The lid of each pit shall be lockable and jam free
construction and supplied with the appropriate key.
3. Where electrode points are located internally within building floor slabs they shall
comprise a suitable earth rod water seal installed in the base of a pocket formed in the
slab, with the pocket and associated cover.
4. The body of each earth pit shall as a minimum comprise shatter-proof, lightweight,
polymer material with a high resistance to chemical damage from such substances as
petrol, oil, diesel, bitumen etc. Each unit shall include high ultra-violet stability, wide
temperature application and earth bar facility (where necessary) to permit multiple
earth tape connections to be made. Where these are not suitable concrete pits shall
be provided.
1. All metallic projections, ducts, vent pipes, gutters, radio and television aerials, fan
housings, window cleaning equipment and tracks etc., on or above the main surface
of the roof structure shall be bonded to and form part of the air termination network.
2. No joints in either the down conductor or roof conductors shall be allowed other than
at air terminal, earth electrodes and terminal or test block positions.
3. Where it is found that the resistance to earth at any test point is in excess of 10 ohms,
the length and number of earth electrodes shall be increased to the instructions of the
MEP Consultant, in order to comply with the requirements of the British Standard. The
resistance of each metallic conducting path, including all joints, shall not exceed 6% of
the calculated resistance of the copper tape itself. In addition, the resistance from the
earth electrode to the nearest test clamp shall not exceed 0.2 ohms.
