Key Engineering Characteristics

Manufactured from 99.9% electrolytic grade high-conductivity copper
Available in bare annealed copper or lead/tin-coated finishes for harsh atmospheres
20 × 3 mm: Compact strip ideal for smaller residential buildings and dedicated down conductors
25 × 3 mm: Industry standard for commercial building earthing grids, substations, and solar grounding
32 × 6 mm: Heavy-duty cross-section for industrial plants, high fault level substations, and transformer earthing

Typical Applications

• Down-conductors connecting roof air terminals to test links and ground pits
• Interconnected equipotential bonding rings and ring conductors
• Substation earth mats, switchyard grounding, and transformer neutrals
• Solar plant perimeter grounding grids and module frame interconnects
• Industrial electrical panel earthing buses

Detailed Technical Explanation

The down conductor network provides the low-impedance pathway required to conduct intense transient lightning current from the air terminal directly into the earth dissipation grid without flashover or thermal damage.

Rescue Electric supplies annealed high-conductivity copper tape (minimum 99.9% IACS purity) configured in standard engineering gauges tailored to specific project fault levels and building geometries.

Our copper strips offer superior current-carrying capacity, minimal thermal rise during 10/350 µs impulses, and outstanding corrosion resilience when affixed to diverse masonry, concrete, and metallic facades.
