Bibliography
Annex ZA (normative) - Normative references to international
         publications with their corresponding European
         publications
Annex ZB (informative) - Identification and differences of
         tests between EN 62561-2:2012 and EN 50164-2:2008

Describes the requirements and tests for: - metallic conductors (other than 'natural' conductors) that form part of the air termination system and down conductors; - metallic earth electrodes that form part of the earth termination system.

This part of IEC 62561 specifies the requirements and tests for:

  • metallic conductors (other than “natural?? conductors) that form part of the air termination system and down conductors;

  • metallic earth electrodes that form part of the earth termination system.
