How Does an ESE Lightning Arrester Work?

An ESE Lightning Arrester is designed to provide a preferred interception point for lightning and safely conduct the discharge current into the ground through a properly engineered earthing system.

During a thunderstorm, a strong electrical field develops between the cloud and the earth. As this field intensifies, the ESE air terminal is designed to initiate an upward streamer under suitable operating conditions. If this upward streamer connects with the descending lightning leader, the lightning current follows the designated path through the down conductor and earthing system instead of passing through the protected structure.

This controlled discharge helps reduce the risk of damage to buildings, electrical installations, machinery, and sensitive electronic equipment. For reliable performance, the system should always be installed by experienced professionals using properly designed down conductors, low-resistance earthing, and high-quality accessories.

ESE Arrester working principle

Because the capture of a lightning strike is quicker than with a lightning rod, this technology can be used to protect zones spread over a wider area, thus ensuring the protection of large structures.

  • BAKIRAL® ESE Lightning Rods fulfil standards UNE 21 186 and NFC 17–102
  • Radius of protection certified and specific level gain in triggering time value
  • Effective performance in all types of weather
  • Fully effective even after being subjected to several lightning strikes

How to Choose the Right ESE Lightning Arrester

Selecting the correct ESE Lightning Arrester depends on several technical and project-specific factors rather than protection radius alone. Before finalising a model, consider:

  • Building height and overall dimensions
  • Required lightning protection level
  • Structure layout and surrounding obstacles
  • Mast height and installation location
  • Earthing system design
  • Applicable project specifications and standards
  • Availability of technical documentation and product test reports

Consulting experienced engineers during the design stage helps ensure optimum performance and long-term safety.

Major Factors to Consider Before Buying ESE Lightning Arrester

1. Whether the ESE Lightning Protection System is Original or not?

Before buying ESE Lightning Arresters, you should always ask for the Custom Duty Receipt, Bill of Lading (Airway Bill) and Certificate of Origin. 9 out of 10 suppliers will fail to provide you with these documents.

Demerits

At the event of a lightning strike, these duplicate lightning arresters will not be able to protect your building & structures from lightning damages.

2. Is the ESE Lightning Arrester tested for 100kA in 10/350ms waveform?

91% of ESE Lightning Arrester manufacturers are not getting their product tested as per NFC 17-102 standards and yet they claim that they comply with NFC standards for ESE Lightning Arrester.

Demerits

Such Lightning Arresters can protect you from minor lightning strikes but not from the severe ones, which can also impact loss of human life.

3. Can we test the ESE Lightning Arrester?

ESE Lightning Protection Systems come with a warranty of 10-30 years, but almost 87% of ESE Lightning Arresters are not testable, meaning you cannot verify at your end whether the ESE Lightning Protection System is working or not, or whether it can protect you.

Demerits

Just by looking from outside it is very hard to tell if a Lightning Arrester is damaged or in working condition. A damaged ESE Lightning Arrester cannot protect your costly infrastructure or manpower from lightning strikes.
