Product Details

In a lightning protection and grounding system, the primary purpose of the cable clamp is to create a low-impedance connection between the grounding conductor and the ground electrode. This ensures that in the event of a lightning strike or electrical fault, excessive electrical energy is safely dissipated into the ground, protecting the structure and its occupants from potential damage or harm.

The cable clamp is typically made of durable and corrosion-resistant materials, such as copper to ensure long-term conductivity. It is designed to accommodate the size and type of cables used in the grounding system, providing a secure and mechanically strong connection. During installation, the cable clamp is placed around the cable and then connected to the grounding electrode or grounding conductor using bolts, screws, or other fastening mechanisms. The clamp ensures proper contact between the cable and the grounding component, minimizing electrical resistance and facilitating the efficient flow of electrical current to the ground.

The cable clamp (ground) plays a crucial role in establishing a robust grounding system, enhancing the safety and effectiveness of lightning protection measures. By providing a secure and low-impedance connection between cables and grounding electrodes, it helps to dissipate electrical energy safely, reducing the risk of damage from lightning strikes or electrical faults.
