What are the roles of graphite sheets in the lightning protection industry?

Graphite sheets have many important roles in the lightning protection industry. The following are their main applications and functions:

1. Good conductivity: Graphite sheets have good conductivity and can effectively conduct lightning current to prevent lightning from breaking through electrical equipment. In lightning rods, graphite sheets can be used as conductive rods to quickly conduct lightning current to protect buildings or equipment from damage by lightning.

2. High temperature resistance: Graphite sheets can withstand the high temperature generated by lightning strikes to prevent themselves from burning during lightning. This feature makes graphite sheets more reliable and durable in lightning environments.

3. Shunting and grounding: Graphite sheets can also be used as internal structural materials for lightning arresters to effectively shunt lightning currents and prevent lightning from directly breaking through electrical equipment. At the same time, graphite sheets can also be used as grounding rods for grounding devices to effectively introduce lightning currents into the ground to avoid damage to electrical equipment caused by lightning.

4. Insulation and shielding: In addition to being conductive and high temperature resistant, graphite sheets can also be used as insulating and shielding materials for lightning arresters to provide additional protection for electrical equipment.

5. Widely used in various fields: Lightning protection graphite sheets can be widely used in various buildings, electronic equipment, power facilities and other fields. For example, it can be placed on the roof, wall and other parts of the building that are susceptible to lightning strikes, or placed inside electronic equipment and power facilities to prevent lightning from damaging buildings or equipment.

6. Improve lightning protection effect: Lightning protection graphite sheets can be used in conjunction with other lightning protection measures (such as lightning rods, grounding wires, etc.) to further improve the lightning protection effect.

In general, graphite sheets play a very important role in the lightning protection industry. Its good conductivity, high temperature resistance, shunting and grounding capabilities, as well as insulation and shielding functions make it an important material for protecting electrical equipment and buildings from lightning damage.
