Aluminum wire AlMgS lightning protection fi8/7.4m=1kg /20kg/ DRUT08AL

Aluminum lightning protection wire – reliable protection for installations

This aluminum wire, made of AlMgSi alloy, is designed for the construction of lightning protection and grounding systems. It is characterized by high electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, which guarantees long-lasting and effective protection against the effects of atmospheric discharges. Its flexibility makes installation easier, even in complex structures.

Construction and application

The wire with a diameter of 8 mm is manufactured by ACI Partner and complies with the PN-EN 62561-2:2012 standard, concerning elements of lightning protection devices. It is used in grounding and lightning protection installations of buildings and other objects exposed to lightning strikes. Thanks to its light weight (1 kg corresponds to 7.4 running meters of wire), installation is faster and less strenuous than with steel wires. It is available in coils weighing 20 kg (approximately 148 meters).

Advantages and benefits

• Corrosion resistance: The AlMgSi aluminum alloy provides high resistance to weathering, which translates to a long service life of the installation.
• Light weight: The low weight of the wire facilitates transport, storage and installation, reducing labor costs.
• Flexibility: Allows easy adaptation to the shape of the structure, minimizing the need for additional connecting elements.
• Electrical conductivity: Ensures efficient discharge of atmospheric discharge currents to the ground, protecting the installation and equipment.
• Compliance with standards: Compliance with PN-EN 62561-2:2012 standard guarantees the safety and effectiveness of the lightning protection system.
• Efficiency: A 20 kg coil offers as much as 148 meters of wire, which optimizes purchase costs for larger projects.
• Versatility: Suitable for both new installations and modernization of existing lightning protection systems.

Let us remember that proper selection and installation of lightning protection wire is key to ensuring the safety of people and property. It is worth consulting with an experienced installer to select appropriate materials and perform the installation in accordance with applicable regulations.
