LIGHTNING PROTECTION
All Flash Technology equipment is designed to withstand severe transient over-voltages. While not provided from
Flash Technology, a lightning arresting system should be installed to prevent eventual damage by lightning.
Transient suppressors from line-to-line and line-to neutral are recommended at the primary power load center.
The presence of a copper lightning rod is recommended. Ensure the lightning rod is approx. 18” away from the
upper most beacon and 36” above the beacon for proper protection.
SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRA MS
This manual may not contain all the information about installation wiring required for your installation.
Important! If installation drawings prepared specifically for your site disagree with information provided in this
manual, the site installation drawings should take precedence. Consult any site-specific installation wiring
diagrams supplied with your equipment.
Flash Technology wiring diagrams define only minimum requirements recommended for satisfactory equipment
operation. It is the responsibility of the installer to comply with all applicable electrical codes.
All installation wiring should have an insulation rating of 600 volts. Wire size for the lights on each wire run is
calculated from the number of lighting fixtures and the length of the wire on that run.
