Description

Angled Air Terminal for Lightning Protection Systems in India | Earthing Mart

An Angled Air Terminal is a lightning protection air terminal designed with a fixed angular orientation to provide effective lightning interception on parapet walls, sloped roofs, edges, and architectural projections where vertical air terminals are not practical. In India, angled air terminals are widely used to ensure correct strike coverage, mechanical stability, and compliance with IS 3043 and IEC 62561 lightning protection guidelines.

What Is an Angled Air Terminal?

An Angled Air Terminal is a lightning interception rod mounted at a predefined angle (instead of vertical) to extend protection zones over roof edges, parapets, sloped surfaces, and façade elements.

Primary Functions

• Intercepts direct lightning strikes

• Provides strike coverage on non-vertical surfaces

• Directs lightning current safely to ground

• Protects structures and sensitive equipment

• Supports compliant lightning protection layouts

Why Angled Air Terminals Are Essential in India

Modern Indian architecture often includes parapets, sloped roofs, and complex façades. Angled air terminals are essential because they:

• Ensure correct lightning capture geometry at edges

• Prevent ineffective protection due to vertical rod limitations

• Maintain compliance without altering building design

• Improve safety on high-rise and exposed structures

• Enhance reliability of lightning protection systems

They are especially critical for architecturally complex and high-risk structures.
