The Eritech System 2000 lightning protection system comprises these principal components:

Air terminal placement is designed using the Benji computer aided design BS6651, NFC 17-100, AS1768 or NFPA 780. This ensurses the most effective placement of air terminations on the structure. Downconductors are positioned to provide the most direct path from the air termination to a low impedence grounding system, to help ensure safe and effective dissipation of the lightning impulse. Equipotential bonding of all circuits and conductors is necessary to reduce ground potential differences and to limit equipotential damage.
