ESE Lightning Arrestor (Early Streamer Emission) for Advanced Lightning Protection in India | Earthing Mart
An ESE Lightning Arrestor (Early Streamer Emission) is an advanced lightning protection device designed to actively attract and intercept lightning strikes earlier than conventional air terminals, providing a larger protection radius. In India, ESE lightning arrestors are widely used for high-risk, high-value, and large-area structures, designed in line with NFC 17-102, IS 3043, and relevant IEC lightning protection principles.
Engineering-Grade ESE Lightning Arrestors by Earthing Mart
ESE Lightning Arrestors supplied by Earthing Mart are engineered to deliver predictable lightning interception, extended protection coverage, and long-term outdoor reliability. Precision-manufactured with high-grade conductive materials and corrosion-resistant housings, these systems ensure controlled lightning capture and safe current dissipation through the down conductor and earthing network.
They are extensively installed on commercial towers, industrial plants, data centers, airports, refineries, power plants, telecom towers, and infrastructure projects across India.
✔ Extended protection radius (as per ESE technology)
✔ Reduced number of air terminals required
✔ High impulse current handling capacity
✔ PAN-India project supply

What Is an ESE Lightning Arrestor?
An ESE Lightning Arrestor is a specialized air terminal that uses early streamer emission technology to generate an upward leader earlier than a conventional lightning rod, thereby capturing lightning strikes at a greater distance.
Primary Functions
-
Actively attracts lightning strikes
-
Provides wide-area lightning protection
-
Safely channels lightning energy to ground
-
Reduces risk of structural and equipment damage
-
Enhances safety of people and assets
Why ESE Lightning Arrestors Are Essential in India
India experiences high lightning density, especially during monsoon seasons. ESE lightning arrestors are essential because they:
-
Protect large and complex structures efficiently
-
Reduce material and installation footprint
-
Improve reliability in high-risk zones
-
Support insurance and statutory compliance
-
Offer cost-effective protection for large sites
They are especially suitable for open areas, tall structures, and mission-critical facilities.
