A lightning arrester known as an ESE (Early Streamer Emission) is a tool used to shield structures from the harm that lightning strikes can cause. It is a particular kind of lightning protection device that functions by deflecting the lightning strike and offering a conduit for the electrical current to safely discharge into the ground.

The following are some essential traits and guidelines for ESE lightning arresters:

Early Streamer Emission (ESE): Before a lightning strike occurs, ESE lightning arresters release an upward-pointing ionization streamer. Before striking the protected structure, this streamer is meant to draw the lightning discharge to the lightning rod.

Height and Coverage: To maximize their coverage area, ESE lightning arresters are often installed at high positions, such as on rooftops or towers. The height of the lightning rod is crucial because it enables a wider protective circle to be created around the building.

Ionization and Lightning Attraction: In order to attract lightning, the ESE lightning arrester uses a technology that ionizes the air in the immediate vicinity. The possibility of attracting and catching the lightning strike is increased by this ionization process.

After the ESE lightning arrester has successfully stopped the lightning strike, a down conductor is utilised to safely send the electrical current to the ground. The suitable grounding system that this down conductor is attached to disperses the energy into the
