ESE Lightning Arrester

Singh Earthing

ESE Lightning Arrester (Early Streamer Emission) is a modern and highly effective lightning protection system that provides superior coverage over conventional lightning rods. It is designed to intercept lightning strikes and safely discharge them into the ground, preventing damage to structures, electrical systems, and lives. An Early Streamer Emission (ESE) lightning arrester is a type of lightning protection system that aims to protect structures by initiating an upward streamer towards a lightning strike earlier than a standard lightning rod, thereby intercepting the strike and diverting the current to ground. Essentially, it tries to “catch” the lightning before it hits other, potentially vulnerable, parts of a building.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is an ESE Lightning Arrester?

It’s a lightning protection device that emits an early upward streamer, attracting lightning strikes earlier and more effectively than traditional rods, ensuring a controlled and safe discharge to the ground.

How is it better than conventional lightning rods?

ESE systems offer a wider protection radius, faster response time, and require no external power. They are also certified as per international lightning protection standards.

Does it need electricity or batteries to function?

No, ESE Lightning Arresters are passive systems — they do not require any external power or batteries.

What is ΔT (Triggering Advance Time)?

ΔT is the time by which the ESE system initiates an upward streamer before a conventional lightning rod would, helping it capture the lightning strike more effectively.

What material is used in ESE Lightning Arresters?

Most ESE arresters are made of Stainless Steel 304/316 or 316L with a non-corrosive air terminal, making them weather-resistant and durable.
