Lightning protection system components (LPSC) - Part 5: Requirements for earth electrode inspection housings and earth electrode seals
IEC 62561-5:2011 specifies the requirements and tests for - earth electrode inspection housings (earth pit), - earth electrode seals. Lightning protection system components (LPSC) may also be suitable for use in hazardous atmospheres. Regard should then be taken of the extra requirements necessary for the components to be installed in such conditions.

Composants de système de protection contre la foudre (CSPF) - Partie 5: Exigences pour les regards de visite et les joints d'étanchéité des électrodes de terre
La CEI 62561-5:2011 spécifie les exigences et les essais pour - les regards de visite des électrodes de terre (regard de terre), - les joints d'étanchéité des électrodes de terre. Les composants de système de protection contre la foudre (CSPF) peuvent aussi être employés dans des atmosphères dangereuses. Il convient alors de prendre en compte les exigences supplémentaires nécessaires pour que les composants soient installés dans de telles conditions.
Elementi za zaščito pred strelo (LPC) - 5. del: Zahteve za merilne omarice ozemljil in tesnjenje izolacije pri ozemljilih
Ta 5. del IEC 62561 določa zahteve in preskuse za - merilne omarice ozemljil (ozemljitvena luknja), - tesnjenje izolacije pri ozemljilih. Elementi za zaščito pred strelo (LPSC) so lahko prav tako primerni za uporabo v nevarnih atmosferah. Treba je upoštevati dodatne zahteve, potrebne za vgradnjo komponent v takih okoliščinah.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62561-5 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 81:
Lightning protection.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
81/391/FDIS 81/399/RVD
Full information on the voting for the approval of this standard can be found in the report on
voting indicated in the above table.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all the parts in the IEC 62561 series, published under the general title Lightning
protection system components (LPSC), can be found on the IEC website.
