5.29.7 Air terminal holder:

Concrete Roof structure: Conductors shall be securely fixed on the terrace by means of
air terminal holder which is fixed on the roof by adhesive of good quality taking care of
varying weather conditions. Air conductor holder is an insulator & should be of minimum
50 mm height so that even small amount of water logging on terrace is below the level of
conductor holder.

Metal Roof structure: Conductors shall be securely fixed on the terrace by means of air
terminal holder which is fixed on the roof by metal conductor holder of good quality which
is tested for lightning current as per IEC 62305 standard. Vendor need to give proof. As
metal roof structures are normally tapered at an angle, there is no min. height criteria for
metal conductor holder.

P a g e 64 | 207
If antenna, air cooler or any other electrical equipment is present above terrace level, the
same have to be protected by using vertical air terminal after calculating the safety or
separation distance. The vertical air terminal has to have suitable supports to hold it. For
design purpose, basic wind speed of 45 knots shall be considered. Vertical air terminal
must be connected to horizontal air terminal by using suitable connectors. The crossings of
the horizontal air terminals, suitable Cross connector has to be used for secure connection
which is tested for lightning current as per IEC standard. Vendor has to provide proof.

Note: LPS material shall be tested as per IEC 62561.

5.29.9 Safety or Separation distance:


It is must to calculate safety or separation distance in order to avoid flash over to the
electrical equipment when the lightning current is passing through the vertical air terminal.

5.29.10 Safety/Separation distance (S) in m = (ki * kc*L) / km


Coefficient ki depends on class of LPL/LPS
ki = 0.08 for LPL1,
ki = 0.06 for LPL 2,
ki = 0.04 for LPL3 and 4.
Coefficient kc depends on no of down conductors:
kc = 0.66 for 2 down conductors
kc = 0.44 for 3 or more down conductors
Value of coefficient km = 1
Value of L is the total distance between the equipment to be protected (for e.g. Antenna)
to the equi-potential bonding bar situated just above the ground.

5.29.11 Expansion piece


In order to take care the expansion of the metal in summer and contraction of the metal in
winter, expansion piece with suitable connectors have to be used at every 20m distance of
horizontal air terminal.

5.29.12 Joints and Bonds


The lightning protective system shall have few joints as far as possible & air terminal &
down conductor have to be straight. Where it is not possible, it should NOT be bent at 90
degree (right angles) & should have a curved path of 45 degree bend.
5.30 Down Conductor System
In order to reduce the probability of damage to electronic/electrical equipment, the down
conductors shall be arranged in equi distance in such a way that from the point of strike to
earth, several parallel current paths should exist & length of the current path should be
minimum. Down conductors can be installed separately or more wisely it can be part of
natural components of the building. Examples are steel reinforcement in RCC columns,
metal facades, profile rails, metal doors & windows. Down conductors should be installed
at each exposed corner of the structure as a minimum.

P a g e 65 | 207
Class of LPL/LPS Typical distance (m)
1 10
2 10
3 15
4 20

The Reinforcing rod of walls or Steel Structure frame may be used as natural Down
conductor. A termination Joint of Suitable material should be provided on the roof to
facilitate the connection of Air termination System. Termination Joints of Suitable material
should be provided to facilitate the termination with the Earth Termination System.
While using a Particular rod of Reinforcement Steel as a Down Conductor; it should be
taken in consideration that same rod should be used all the way down to provide the direct
electrical Continuity.
If, while providing the straight path all the way down is not possible or Electrical
continuity is not sure; Additional dedicated conductor should be used with Less number of
joints. These additional conductors should be clamped to reinforcement Steel at proper
distance (preferably 1-2 meter) with suitable clamp which can withstand the Lightning
Current.

5.31 Test joints:


At the connection of the earth terminal, a test joint should be fitted on each down conductor
at a height of 1 m from the ground, except in the case of natural down conductors combined
with foundation earth electrode. The purpose of test joint is to measure the earth resistance
value. The remaining portion of down conductor (i.e., after the test joint should be mounted
inside a plastic pipe of minimum 3 mm thickness.)
5.32 Earth Terminations
Earth mat is most preferable. Where earth mat is not possible, ring earthing is the next best
method. Ring earthing must be 1 meter away from the building and 0.5m below the round
level. The resistance of earthing system shall not exceed 10 ohm as per IEC 62305.
Lower earth resistance is more preferable.

For earth termination system, 2 basic types of earth electrode arrangements are applicable.
Type A & Type B arrangement.

Type A arrangement: Comprises of horizontal or vertical earth electrode installed outside


the structure to be protected connected to each down conductor.

In type A arrangement, the total number of earth electrodes shall not be less than two.

Type A arrangement is suitable in places where electronic equipment are not located.

Type B arrangement: This type of arrangement comprises either a ring conductor external
to the structure to be protected, in contact with the soil for at least 80% of its total length
or a foundation earth electrode. Such earth electrodes can also be meshed. For structures
with extensive electronic systems or with high risk of fire, type B earthing is most
preferable method. Corrosion proofing band has to be used wherever down conductor is

P a g e 66 | 207
connected to earth termination system. Bitumen has to be applied at the point of inter-
connection.

In potentially corrosive areas, Stainless steel must be used.

The reinforcement rod of the foundation & the buried wall can be used as foundation Earth
Electrode. This is the good earthing Solution at minimum cost. In addition to the
interconnection of the reinforcing rod by wire lashing, the installation of additional meshed
metal network to ensure good joint is recommended. This additional meshed metal network
should be clamped with reinforcement steel with suitable metal of clamp confirming to IEC
62561/ tested for lightning Current. All connection clamp/joints shall have the ability to
carry the lightning Current.

Earth Fixing Point or terminal to connect external down conductor should be taken out with
suitable material to avoid the corrosion in case of dissimilar material.

5.39 PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM (PA SYSTEM)


P a g e 76 | 207
5.39.1 Scope

The scope of this section covers supply installation, testing and commissioning of PA
system.

5.39.2 Voice Alarm Controller:

The Voice Alarm Controller is the heart of the voice alarm system. It is the
basis of the Voice Alarm System, and should have the essential functionality for compliance
with the EN 60849 and 54-16 standards, including full system supervision, loudspeaker line
impedance supervision, a supervised emergency microphone on the front panel and a
supervised message manager.

A built-in 240 W amplifier provides the power for the emergency call channel and BGM.
Additional Amplifiers can be added to provide two-channel operation. All amplifiers should
be supervised. The audio output uses standard analog audio 100 V line switching for full
compatibility with the family of public address equipment and EVAC-compliant
loudspeakers.

The powerful 240 W output section has six transformer isolated 100 V constant-voltage
outputs for driving 100 V loudspeakers in separate zones. The 100 V-technique reduces line
losses on longer distances and provides easy parallel connection of multiple loudspeakers.
All zones may be individually selected from the front panel, and the BGM output level in
each zone can be individually set in six steps.

Six configurable volume-override output contacts are available for overriding local volume
controls during priority calls. Both four-wire and three-wire schemes are supported. An LED
meter monitors the output.

The controller should support upto 60 zones. Up to 255 messages can be stored in the
internal 16 MB flash ROM, without a need for battery backup. Each message can have any
length within the total available capacity. Messages and configurations are uploaded from a
PC via USB into the memory, after which the unit operates without a PC connection.

The unit has 12 contact trigger inputs for business and emergency (EMG) calls. Each can
be configured for a message consisting of a sequence of up to eight wav files. In this way
some wav files may be used in various combinations with other messages, optimizing
flexibility and the amount of storage space used. The Controller should also have two RS232
ports of which one should be reserved for product development and the other can be used to
integrate to a third party digital device supporting RS232 protocol and can be used as a soft
trigger input, in that way the number of trigger inputs (both emergency and business trigger
inputs) can be increased to minimum of 150. Multiple messages can be merged to form one
integrated message. The controller should have dip switches to adjust the system settings.
The controller should have impedance calibration button for matching to the speaker
impedance. The controller should have the VOX activation feature. A zone selection,
together with this sequence can be configured for each trigger input.
