Lightning Protection Components (LPC) - Part 5: Requirements for earth electrode inspection housings and earth electrode seals

This European Standard specifies the requirements and tests for - earth electrode inspection housings (earth pit), - earth electrode seals. Lightning protection components (LPC) 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.

Bitzschutzbauteile - Teil 5: Anforderungen an Revisionskästen und Erderdurchführungen

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen und Prüfungen fest für - Revisionskästen; - Erderdurchführungen. Blitzschutzbauteile können auch für die Anwendung in gefährlichen Atmosphären geeignet sein. Es sollten dann die besonderen Anforderungen, die für den Einbau dieser Bauteile unter solchen Bedingungen notwendig sind, beachtet werden.

Composants de protection contre la foudre (CPF) - Partie 5: Prescriptions pour les regards de visite et les joints d'étanchéité des électrodes de terre

Cette Norme Européenne spécifie les exigences et les essais pour - les regards de visite (regard de terre), - les joints d’étanchéité de piquet de terre. Les composants de protection contre la foudre (CPF) peuvent aussi être employés dans des atmosphères dangereuses. Dans ce cas, il convient de veiller à ce que les caractéristiques des composants soient en adéquation avec ces conditions.
