(Main)Lightning Protection System Components (LPSC) - Part 1: Testing requirements for metal sheets’ joints used in LPS
Lightning Protection System Components (LPSC) - Part 1: Testing requirements for metal sheets’ joints used in LPS
This document defines the requirements and testing for joints of metal sheets, with or without insulating coatings, used as natural components in roofs, facades or walls of buildings, suitable to conduct lightning current in LPS where the interconnection of these metal sheets does not ensure durable electrical connection. NOTE This document does not deal with the lightning interception capabilities of these components. The connection clamps for connecting the metallic sheet with the down conductor to the earth termination system are LPSC, tested according to EN 62561-1.

Elementi za zaščito pred strelo (LPSC) - 1. del: Zahteve za preskušanje spojev kovinskih plošč, uporabljenih v LPS
Ta dokument določa zahteve in preskuse za spoje kovinskih plošč z izolacijskimi premazi ali brez njih, ki se uporabljajo kot naravni sestavni deli v strehah, fasadah ali stenah stavb za usmerjanje toka strele v elementih za zaščito pred strelo, kadar medsebojna povezava teh kovinskih plošč ne zagotavlja trajne električne povezave.
OPOMBA: Ta dokument ne obravnava zmožnosti prestrezanja strel pri teh sestavnih delih. Priključne sponke za povezavo kovinske plošče z odvodom na ozemljitveni sistem so elementi za zaščito pred strelo, preskušeni v skladu s standardom EN 62561-1.

European foreword
This document (CLC/TS 50703-1:2019) has been prepared by CLC/TC 81X “Lightning
protection”.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the

1 Scope
This document defines the requirements and testing for joints of metal sheets, with or without
insulating coatings, used as natural components in roofs, facades or walls of buildings,
suitable to conduct lightning current in LPS where the interconnection of these metal sheets
does not ensure durable electrical connection.
NOTE This document does not deal with the lightning interception capabilities of these
components. The connection clamps for connecting the metallic sheet with the down conductor to the
earth termination system are LPSC, tested according to EN 62561-1.
2 Normative references
There are no normative references in this document.
3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following
addresses:
• IEC Electropedia: available at http://www.electropedia.org/
• ISO Online browsing platform: available at http://www.iso.org/obp
3.1
metal sheets’ joint
electrical and mechanical coupling between metal sheets
Note 1 to entry: Typical joints are shown in Annex A
3.2
metal sheet with insulating coating
metal sheet with a coating insulating protective paint or coating, typically with a thickness of
some ten to some hundred micrometres, not regarded as an insulator for a lightning current
3.3
metal sheet without insulating coating
metal sheet without any insulating protective paint or coating
3.4
non-durable electrical joint
jointing of two metal sheets with or without insulating coating connected as typically shown in
Annex A
3.5
type test
test required to be made before supplying a type of material covered by this standard on a
general commercial basis, in order to demonstrate satisfactory performance characteristics to
meet the intended application
Note 1 to entry: These tests are of such a nature that, after they have been done, they don’t need to
be repeated unless changes are made to the accessory materials, design or type of manufacturing
process which might change the performance characteristics.
4 Classification
Classification of metal sheets' joints according to the ability to withstand lightning current as
follows:
— class H for heavy duty;
— class N for normal duty.
The selection of classes H and N should be performed by the manufacturer in accordance
with the test parameters identified in Table 1.
5 Requirements
5.1 Installation instructions
The manufacturer of the metal sheet shall provide at least the following information:
a) the classification of the metal sheet;
b) the joint configuration;
c) the connection configuration.
Compliance is checked by review as per 6.4.
5.2 Lightning current carrying capability
Metal sheet and metal sheet’s joint shall have sufficient lightning current carrying capability.
Compliance is ch
