> HOW IS LIGHTNING FORMED
1 In normal atmospheric conditions, there is a balance between positive and negative

charges, where the ground is more negatively charged than the air and other elements on
the ground.
2 However, the formation of storm clouds creates a charge polarization: usually, the lower
part of the cloud is negatively charged, thereby inducing a positive charge in the ground
and other elements on it. The electric field formed in the atmosphere can then reach tens of
kilovolts.
This positive charge is more evident in metal objects, pointed objects and well-earthed
objects, including trees.
3 When the electric field is high enough, the cloud starts discharging towards the ground. The
path formed by this discharge is called the downward leader and produces a very sharp
variation in the electric field which affects the positive charges in the objects on the ground,
causing the corona effect.
4 One of these objects will be the one forming the upward leader, which will move towards
the downward leader thus forming the discharge path between the cloud and the ground.
This object will receive the lightning strike. The cloud charge will find the most direct path
to earth. If this path is not controlled, it could cause serious damage.
> LIGHTNING PARAMETERS

Lightning protection standards assume as a direct discharge wave, a double exponential which rise time is 10 μs (up to 90% of the peak value),
peak value of 100 kA and tail time (up to 50% of the peak value) of 350 μs.

> GUIDE FOR THE DESIGN AND INSTALLATION OF EARLY STREAMER EMISSION AIR TERMINALS (ESE)
Operation of early streamer emission air terminals is based on the

electric characteristics of lightning formation. Lightning begins with a
1
down-conductor which spreads in any direction. Once it approaches the
objects on the ground, any of them can be struck. The objective of an
external lightning protection system is to control the lightning strike point
and provide the lightning current with a path to earth avoiding damage to
the structure. 2
The main feature of Early Streamer Emission (ESE) air terminals is the
generation of the continuous upward leader before any other object
within its protected area. The standards define this characteristic
using a parameter called advance time (ΔT): ”Difference expressed in 3
microseconds between the emission time of an early streamer emission
air terminal and a simple rod air terminal measured in a laboratory under
the conditions defined in the reference standard.” 4 6 9
This advance time determines the protection radius of each air terminal.
If the triggering occurs earlier, then the distance at which the downward
leader is intercepted increases, thus avoiding a lightning strike in a
wider area. The advance time must be measured in a high voltage
laboratory, following the test procedure described in the ESE lightning
protection regulations.
The components for a lightning protection system using ESE air 5
terminals are as follows:
8

• An earth termination system.

10

11
• A suitable surge protection installation. 15
• Other measures minimizing the destructive effects of lightning
(equipotential bonding, screening etc.).
The installation of the LPS using ESE air terminals must follow the

DAT CONTROLER® PLUS is an Early Streamer Emission (ESE) air terminal based on the electrical
characteristics of lightning formation. The air terminal triggers the continuous upward leader before
any other object within its radius of protection. This feature is referred to in the regulations as the
advance time of an ESE air terminal (ΔT). The earlier the upward leader is triggered, the larger
is the distance where the downward leader is intercepted, thus protecting a greater area against
lightning (standards limit it to ΔT≤60 μs).
DAT CONTROLER® PLUS terminals offer the highest performance guarantees:

95%) PLUS prevents rain creating contact between the
metal housing at atmospheric electric potential (in
blue) and the grounded metal axis (in red)
The source feeding the triggering device of an
ESE air terminal is the high difference in the
potential between its insulated metal frames
during a thunderstorm. It is necessary to
guarantee such a difference in potential in the
event of rain.

terminal Remote checking (DAT CONTROLER®
PLUS + AT-REMOTE TESTER)
*The last edition of the standard UNE 21186, NF C 17-102 and NP 4426 requires, consecutively and on the
same sample, the following tests:
1. Environmental tests, in atmospheres with a high salt and sulphur concentration, in order to ensure the correct
operation of the air terminal in highly corrosive atmospheres.
2. Current test, applying 3 impulses of 100 kA with a 10/350 μs wave to the air terminal in order to ensure it
works after repeated lightning strikes.
3. Advance time test for calculating the ΔT factor which will determine its protection radius.

44 > FREE STANDING MAST

Self supporting mast with polygonal section measured for wind velocity up to 250 km/h.
Ø1½” at the top.
They are made of pyramidal trunk sections that slot into each other so the sections
do not need to be joined by stud-bolts or welding and the hinge means they can be
raised using a small crane.
Preliminary work is needed, which consists of inserting a flexible tube in order to
let the down-conductor pass, as well as casting the steel support with the hinge
in a concrete base (which varies in size depending on the mast height, as shown
in the table).
It’s necessary to wait until the concrete has hardened before placing the mast in its
support. It is recommended to mount the air terminal with the conductor inside the
mast before raising it. The conductor does not need to be fixed inside the mast, the
down-conductor should simply be passed through the clip inside the mast at door
level. It is possible to install a lightning strike counter AT-034G (table 106) inside
the mast behind the inspection hatch in the base. ATLOGGER recorder of lightning
activity may be installed outside the mast (AT-004G and AT-028G, table 105).

104 > SPARK GAP FOR AERIAL MAST

Aerials are particularly exposed to lightning strikes and their consequences. The
lightning protection system must protect the aerial against direct impact, however
part of the lightning current could side-strike it and follow an uncontrolled path to
earth. Even if it is only part of the lightning current, the damage caused could be
very significant.
The AT-060F protector is connected to the aerial mast in order to ensure an
equipotential bond between metal elements, thereby preventing dangerous sparks
between the lightning protection system and the aerial mast, which could result in
fire and damage to the structure.

> ACCESSORIES
105 > ATLOGGER

ATLOGGER is a recorder of electrical activity in the lightning rod's
down-conductor which, in addition to counting the number of strikes,
records the amplitude and polarity of the lightning, as well as the date
and time the impact occurred.
Installation is very easy as it does not involve interrupting the
down-conductor. Simply place it beside the down-conductor and fix
it properly onto a flat surface.
The data is downloaded automatically using a USB device that enables
data transfer from different ATLOGGER devices to the reading point.

Software is included for download management by means of transfer
device with USB connection.
INSTALLATION
It must be installed so that the down-conductor of air terminal is on the
side nearest the electromechanical counter.
When no drill is allowed, the fixing is made by a support plate providing
a flat and sturdy surface for fixing the ATLOGGER: AT-005G with 2

106 > LIGHTNING EVENT COUNTER

The AT-034G lightning event counter is a device to be installed on the down-conductor, usually
above the guard tube. It automatically counts the strikes received by the lightning protection
system. It is very sturdy and totally autonomous, however it is advisable to check it periodically
in order to see if there has been a strike and, therefore, whether or not the lightning protection
system needs any special maintenance.
This counter is designed to be installed inside self-supporting masts and interrupting the
down-conductor is not necessary for its installation.

INSTALLATION
The counter installation is very simple, It merely needs to be fixed to the down-
conductor by tightening the four screws included in the support sheet, so that
the down-conductor is between both elements.
The lightning counter has been successfully tested in official and independent
laboratories. The counter has proved its effective operation and strength by
means of these tests, withstanding lightning currents (100 kA, 10/350 μs) without
suffering any damage.
