Ground Bar – Main Ground Station

Ground Bar - Main Ground Station

A Ground Bar, also known as a main ground station, is a component used in lightning protection and grounding systems to provide a safe path for electrical energy from a lightning strike or electrical fault to dissipate into the ground.

Product Details

In lightning protection systems, the primary purpose of a ground bar is to facilitate the grounding of electrical equipment and structures. It is typically a metal bar or conductor made of copper or other highly conductive materials. The ground bar is securely connected to the grounding electrode system, which consists of grounding rods, conductors, and other grounding components buried in the earth. During a lightning strike or electrical fault, the ground bar serves as a low-resistance pathway for the electrical energy to flow into the ground, effectively dispersing it and reducing the risk of damage or harm. By providing a direct connection to the earth, the ground bar helps to divert the electrical energy away from sensitive equipment, buildings.

The ground bar is typically installed at the main electrical service entrance or within a central grounding system. It serves as a centralized point where various electrical equipment, conductors, and grounding connections can be securely bonded. This allows for effective grounding of the entire electrical system and helps to mitigate the potential hazards associated with electrical faults and lightning strikes.
