PART 2 PRODUCTS

2.1 MATERIALS

Do not use a combination of materials that forms an electrolytic couple of such nature that corrosion is accelerated in the presence of moisture unless moisture is permanently excluded from the junction of such metals.

Where unusual conditions exist which would cause corrosion of conductors, provide conductors with protective coatings, such as tin or lead, or oversize conductors. Where a mechanical hazard is involved, increase conductor size to compensate for the hazard or protect conductors. When metallic conduit or tubing is provided, electrically bond conductor to conduit or tubing at the upper and lower ends by clamp type connectors or welds (including exothermic). All lightning protection components, hardware and accessories such as bonding plates, air terminals, air terminal supports and braces, clips, connector fittings, and fasteners are to comply with the requirements of NFPA 70 , NFPA 780 and UL 96 as applicable.

2.1.1 Main and Bonding Conductors

NFPA 780 and UL 96 Class I, Class II, or Class II modified materials as applicable.

2.1.2 Copper Only

Provide copper conductors, except where aluminum conductors are required for connection to aluminum equipment. Size of conductors shall not be less than specified in NFPA 780 .

2.2 COMPONENTS

2.2.1 Air Terminals

Provide solid air terminals with a blunt tip. Tubular air terminals are not permitted. Support air terminals more than 600 mm in length by suitable brace, supported at not less than one-half the height of the terminal.

2.2.2 Ground Rods

Provide ground rods made of copper-clad steel conforming to conform to UL 467 . Provide ground rods that are not less than 20 mm in diameter and 3000 mm in length. Do not mix ground rods of copper-clad steel or solid copper on the job.

2.2.3 Connections and Terminations

Provide connectors for splicing conductors that conform to UL 96 , class as applicable. Conductor connections can be made by clamps or welds (including exothermic). Provide style and size connectors required for the installation.

SECTION 26 41 00 Page 4

2.2.4 Connector Fittings

Provide connector fittings for "end-to-end", "Tee", or "Y" splices that conform to NFPA 780 and UL 96 .

2.2.5 Lightning Protection Components

Provide bonding plates, air terminal supports, clips, and fasteners that conform to UL 96 classes as applicable.

2.3 CLAMP-TYPE CONNECTORS

Clamp connectors for splicing conductors shall conform to UL 96 and CID A-A-59213 , Class 2 non-insulated, style and size as required for the installation. Connectors shall be of corrosion-resistant material and shall afford protection against electrolysis.

PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 INTEGRAL SYSTEM

Provide a lightning protection system that meets the requirements of NFPA 780 . Lightning protection system consists of air terminals, down conductors, ground connections, and grounding electrodes and ground ring electrode conductor. Make interconnections within side-flash distances at or below the level of the grounded metallic parts.

3.1.1 Pole-Mounted Components

3.1.1.1 Air Terminals

Provide air terminal design and support conforming to NFPA 780 . Rigidly connect terminals to, and make electrically continuous with, pole conductors by means of pressure connectors or crimped joints of T-shaped malleable metal. Provide pressure connector or crimped joint with a dowel or threaded fitting to connect ground rod conductor with air terminal.

Secure air terminals against overturning either by attachment to the object to be protected or by means of a substantial braces which are permanently and rigidly attached to the structure.

3.1.2 Down Conductors

Protect exposed down conductors from physical damage as required by NFPA 780 .

Make down conductors electrically continuous from air terminals and conductors to grounding electrodes. Course down conductors over outer extreme portions of the pole structure, with consideration given to location of ground connections and air terminals. Provide each pole structure not less than two down conductors located as widely separated as practicable, such as at diagonally opposite corners. Equally and symmetrically spaced down conductors about the perimeter of the structure.

Protect conductors where necessary, to prevent physical damage or displacement to the conductor. Protect down conductors by placing in PVC conduit for a minimum distance of 1800 2400 mm above finished grade level.

3.1.3 Ground Connections

Attach each down conductor to ground rods by welding (including exothermic), brazing, or compression. All connections to ground rods below ground level must be by exothermic weld connection or with a high

SECTION 26 41 00 Page 5

W912HV-20-B-0007 (AM-0002)

j2ee9sag Line compression connection using a hydraulic or electric compression tool to provide the correct circumferential pressure. Accessible connections above ground level and in test wells can be accomplished by mechanical clamping.

3.1.4 Grounding Electrodes

Extend driven ground rods vertically into the existing undisturbed earth for a distance of not less 3000 mm. Set ground rods not less than 915 mm nor more than 2440 mm, from the structure foundation, and at least beyond the drip line for the facility. After the completed installation, measure the total resistance to ground using the fall-of-potential method described in IEEE 81 . Maximum allowed resistance of a driven ground rod is 25 ohms, under normally dry conditions when a ground ring electrode is not used.

Contact the Contracting Officer for direction on how to proceed when two of any three ground rods, driven not less than 3000 mm into the ground, a minimum of 3000 mm apart, and equally spaced around the perimeter, give a combined value exceeding 50 ohms immediately after having driven. For ground ring electrode, provide continuous No. 2/0 bare stranded copper cable. Lay ground ring electrode around the perimeter of the structure in a trench not less than 915 mm nor more than 2440 mm from the nearest point of the structure foundation, and at least beyond the drip line for the facility. Install ground ring electrode to a minimum depth of 765 600 mm.

Install a ground ring electrode in earth undisturbed by excavation, not earth fill, and do not locate beneath roof overhang, or wholly under paved areas or roadways where rainfall cannot penetrate to keep soil moist in the vicinity of the cable.

3.2 RESTORATION

Where sod has been removed, place sod as soon as possible after completing the backfilling. Restore paved areas, to original condition and other areas disturbed by trenching, storing of dirt, cable laying, and other work. Overfill to accommodate for settling. Include necessary topsoil, fertilizing, liming, seeding, sodding, sprigging or mulching in any restoration. Maintain disturbed surfaces and replacements until final acceptance.

3.3 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

3.3.1 Lightning Protection and Grounding System Test

Test the lightning protection and grounding system to ensure continuity is not in excess of 1 ohm and that resistance to ground is not in excess of 25 ohms. Provide documentation for the measured values at each test point.

Test the ground rod for resistance to ground before making connections to the rod. Tie the grounding system together and test for resistance to ground. Make resistance measurements in dry weather, not earlier than 48 hours after rainfall. Include in the written report: locations of test points, measured values for continuity and ground resistances, and soil conditions at the time that measurements were made. Submit results of each test to the Contracting Officer.

3.3.2 Lightning Protection System Inspection

Make visual inspections to verify that there are no loose connections which may result in high resistance joints, and that conductors and system components are securely fastened to their mounting surfaces and are protected against accidental mechanical displacement.

3.3.3 System Ratings

Submit certificates showing compliance with UL requirements for "Master Label" ratings. Lightning-protection systems conforming to the installation requirements of UL 96A shall be qualified for a UL "Master Label" rating. Installed lightning-protection system shall be inspected and approved by a certified UL inspector.

3.4 INSPECTION

The lightning protection system will be inspected by the Contracting Officer to determine conformance with the requirements of this specification. No part of the system shall be concealed until so authorized by the Contracting Officer.
