TELEBAHN supplies lightning rod solutions for residential, commercial, public and industrial buildings. When integrated with correctly designed down conductors and grounding systems, these air terminals provide a preferred interception point for direct lightning strikes and help conduct lightning current safely toward earth. Stainless steel construction, passive operation and multiple protection-radius options support dependable outdoor installation across different building heights, site layouts and lightning protection requirements.
2. No electronics – immune to surge damage, protection quality unchanged after lightning strikes.
3. Models available in different protection radii.
4. Self-activating only in lightning conditions; a completely active lightning interception system. 1. Central collector rod.
2. Reflector.
3. Trigger device.
4. Exciter.
5. Exciter fixing plate.
6. The exciter is electrically insulated from the reflector and the central collector rod.
7. The reflector and the central collector rod are indicated to have a good electrical connection to earth.
8. The exciter base is made of synthetic resin, suitable for any corrosive environment.
2. Lightning strikes are intercepted more precisely, reducing the probability that the strike point falls on objects other than the lightning rod.
3. Safe and reliable: free of radioactive elements, made of stainless steel, corrosion-resistant, and with strong wind resistance.
4. Maintenance-free: passive, no power supply required, and no energy-consuming components.
5. Easy to install: lightweight and requiring no additional coaxial shielded cable.
6. Aesthetically pleasing: elegant appearance.
Lightning Rod
Lightning Rod Product Range
TELEBAHN provides several lightning interception options for different structures and installation conditions:
- ESE Lightning Rods: Passive air terminals designed to initiate an upward streamer as the atmospheric electric field increases, supporting a wider protection area at a specified installation height.
- Lightning Rods for Homes: Roof-mounted solutions for houses, apartments, villas and other residential buildings requiring direct-strike protection.
- Conventional Air Terminal Rods: Straightforward interception components suitable for integration into standard external lightning protection systems.
- Lightning Protection Air Terminals: Stainless steel models for commercial buildings, public facilities, warehouses and industrial structures.
- Multiple Protection Radius Options: Different models are available to match the required protection class, installation height and building footprint.
Key Features
Passive Operation
Selected models operate without an external power supply, batteries or electronic control components, simplifying long-term rooftop installation.
Stainless Steel Construction
Corrosion-resistant housings withstand rain, humidity and prolonged exposure in demanding outdoor environments.
Direct Lightning Interception
The air terminal creates a designated strike point above the protected structure, reducing the possibility of direct attachment to exposed building sections.
Flexible Model Selection
Different advance-time values, structures and protection-radius options allow engineers to select a suitable product for each project.
Low Maintenance Requirements
Simple mechanical structures reduce routine servicing requirements while supporting stable performance over an extended service life.
Easy System Integration
The lightning rod can be connected to compatible mounting poles, down conductors, inspection components and earth termination systems.
How an ESE Lightning Rod Works
An ESE lightning rod responds to the rapid increase in the atmospheric electric field before a lightning discharge. Its passive triggering structure promotes ionization near the air-terminal tip and encourages the formation of an upward streamer.
Installed at a suitable elevated position, the air terminal is intended to intercept the descending lightning leader before it reaches the protected structure. The resulting lightning current must then be transferred through correctly sized down conductors into an engineered grounding network.
Typical Applications
- Houses, villas and apartment buildings
- Office towers and commercial complexes
- Schools, hospitals and government facilities
- Hotels, shopping centres and public venues
- Factories, warehouses and production plants
- Telecommunications and utility facilities
- Open areas requiring a defined lightning interception point
Selecting the Right Lightning Rod
Lightning protection equipment should be selected according to the building height, required protection class, installation position, environmental conditions and calculated protection radius. The complete system must also coordinate the air terminal with suitable down conductors, bonding components and earth termination equipment.
TELEBAHN supports product selection and OEM or ODM requirements for different construction and lightning protection projects.
