Overview
A lightning protection system needs air terminals, down conductors, test points and earth electrodes, all joined by fittings that can carry a surge current. Many of those fittings are brass or copper-alloy castings and forgings, and Jamnagar is a major centre for them.
Empire Alloys manufactures a wide range of these accessories in its Jamnagar plant. Because one plant makes the clamps, clips, bars and blocks, buyers can source a full set of earthing accessories with consistent material and finish.
