Appendix A: Lightning Proof and Surge Signal Proof
This product adopts TVS lightning proof technology to prevent damage by a lightning strike below 1500
W and surge impulse signals. However it is also necessary to ensure that the following precautions are
taken to ensure electrical safety:
l Keep the communication cables at least 50 meters away from high voltage equipment or cables.
l Where possible locate outdoor cables under eaves to provide best protection.
l In an open area run cables in steel tubing and attach a single point ground to the tube.
l In areas prone to thunderstorms or high EMF (such as a high voltage transformer substation),
additional lightning proof equipment must be installed.
l Always design the installation taking account of the building lightning proof requirements and
grounding of outdoor equipment in accordance with the national and industrial standards.
l The system must be grounded with equal potentials. The earth ground connection must satisfy
anti-interference and electrical safety requirements and must not short circuit the high voltage
electricity network. When the system is grounded separately, the resistance of the down conductor
should be 4 and the sectional size of the down conductor should be 25mm2 (refer to Fig
26).

NOTE: This technology HELPS
prevent the dome and camera from being
damaged by lightning strikes but under no circumstances does it guarantee
protection. Domes or cameras struck by lightning will not be covered by
the warranty.
