This Technical Information Note provides guidance to tower crane hirers (users) about the provision of tower crane electrical supplies, emergency escape lighting and lightning protection. It includes guidance on inspection and testing following installation and whilst in. How is it made and what regulatory documents can you rely upon? Let's consider the main aspects related to the arrangement of the crane protection. Ensure that the crane is properly grounded The crane should be correctly grounded to reduce the risk of lightening damage. This document describes minimum levels for the electrical safety of the equipment and wiring on tower cranes for the purpose of complying with the requirements of the Occupational Health and Safety Act enforced by the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development (MLTSD) of Ont.

#2 AWG minimum bare tinned solid copper ground wire may be used to bond air terminals to the tower. Grounding systems are a vital component of radio tower lightning protection because they provide a safe and controlled path for electrical energy to dissipate into the earth. Some of the concepts that we will discuss in this video relate to some of the other topics that we have already discussed i some of our other videos in this series. So, hopefully you are starting to gain a better understanding o different areas of. Because bonding and grounding systems within a building are intended to have one electrical potential, coordination between electrical and telecommunications bonding and grounding systems is essential during design and installation.
