Lightning protection system components (LPSC) - Part 5: Requirements for earth electrode inspection housings and earth electrode seals
IEC 62561-5:2017 specifies the requirements and tests for earth electrode inspection housings (earth housing) installed in the earth and for earth electrode seals. Lightning protection system components (LPSC) can also be suitable for use in hazardous atmospheres. There are therefore additional requirements when installing the components under such conditions. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition, published in 2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision. This edition includes the following major technical changes with respect to the previous edition. - Testing requirements have been added for the sealing of earth electrode installed in or through watertight concrete.

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
L'IEC 62561-5:2017 spécifie les exigences et les essais pour les regards de visite des électrodes de terre (regard de terre) installés dans le sol et les joints d'étanchéité des électrodes de terre. Les composants des systèmes de protection contre la foudre (CSPF) peuvent aussi être employés dans des atmosphères dangereuses. Il existe donc des exigences supplémentaires pour installer les composants dans de telles conditions. Cette deuxième édition annule et remplace la première édition publiée en 2011. Cette édition constitue une révision technique. Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l'édition précédente. - Des exigences d'essai concernant l'étanchéité des électrodes de terre installées dans ou à travers du béton étanche ont été ajoutées.
Elementi sistema za zaščito pred strelo (LPSC) - 5. del: Zahteve za merilne omarice ozemljil in tesnjenje izolacije pri ozemljilih
Ta del standarda IEC 62561 določa zahteve in preskuse za pregled ohišja ozemljil (ozemljitvena ohišja), ki so položena v zemljo, in za tesnila ozemljil.
Elementi za zaščito pred strelo (LPSC) so lahko primerni tudi za uporabo v nevarnih ozračjih. Zaradi tega glede namestitve sestavnih delov v takih pogojih obstajajo dodatne zahteve.
OPOMBA: Različne zahteve in preskusni postopki so navedeni v standardih EN 124 (vsi deli) in EN 1253 (vsi deli).

Part 5: Requirements for earth electrode inspection housings
and earth electrode seals
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 t
