Annex B (normative) Requirements for minimum cross sectional
        area, mechanical and electrical characteristics, tests
        to be applied
Annex C (normative) Requirements for minimum dimensions,
        mechanical and electrical characteristics, tests to

This European Standard 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. Lightning protection components (LPC) may also be suitable for use in hazardous atmospheres. Regard should then be taken of the extra requirements necessary for the components to be installed in such conditions.
