VISUAL AND CONDUCTIVITY INSPECTION
Learning objectives:
The participants can imitate how to carry out a visual inspection of the lightning protection system (Skills, basic level) The participants can act independently in identifying damaged components of the lightning protection system by conducting a visual inspection (Ability, intermediate level)
Training staff shall:
Show examples of damaged lightning protection system components
Demonstrate how to carry out a visual inspection of the lightning protection system
Facilitate practice to improve the participants’ ability to identify damaged components of the lightning protection system by conducting a visual inspection
The participants shall:
Practice the ability to identify damaged components of the lightning protection system by conducting a visual inspection
Training staff shall:
Give feedback on the participants’ abilities to identify damaged component s of the lightning protection system by conducting a visual inspection
MEASURE RESISTANCE
Learning objectives:
The participants can perform safe measurements of the conductivity and resistance of a typical lightning protection system using a low-resistance ohmmeter (Skills, intermediate level) The participants can take responsibility for safely using a low-resistance ohmmeter to measure the resistance of the lightning protection system and to identify a defective lightning receptor (Ability, intermediate level)
Training staff shall:
Describe the tools required for measuring the resistance of the lightning protection system
Explain the safety precautions to be adopted for using a low-resistance ohmmeter
Explain common procedures to ensure correct reading and direct contact between receptor surface and low-resistance ohmmeter (e.g. cleaning the receptor) Demonstrate how to safely use a low-resistance ohmmeter to measure the resistance in the entire lightning protection system Demonstrate how to safely use the low-resistance ohmmeter to identify which lightning receptor or section of cable is defective
