system
Risk of electric shock!
If there is a lightning strike in the lightning protection system, lethal voltages
can occur in the system. Do not work on the lightning protection system during
a thunderstorm or if there is the risk of one, and do not install air-termination
masts in the immediate vicinity of high-voltage cables.
The isCon
®
system is installed in the following steps:
– Preparation of the isCon
®
conductor for the mounting of connection
elements and equipotential bonding
– Mounting of the connection elements
– Assembly of the air-termination rods and connection of the isCon
®
conductors
– Connection to the equipotential bonding

Shortening the isCon
®
conductor
1. Determine the required conductor length, as described in “6.3 Con-
ductor lengths and lightning protection classes” on page 25.
2. Shorten the isCon
®
conductor on-site to the required length using
standard cable cutters or saw.

Stripping the grey external jacket (isCon Pro+ 75 GR)
In the case of the isCon Pro+ 75 GR conductor, before attaching con-
nection elements and elements for potential connection, remove the grey
external jacket in the contact area, so that the connection comes into
contact with the protective jacket.
Risk of damage!
The black, weakly conductive layer may not be removed, as otherwise the con-
nection to the building's equipotential bonding can be interrupted. In the case of
the grey external jacket, maintain a maximum cutting depth of 1.5 mm.
