Tronic Copper Lightning Arrester, 4 Feet

Our review

This Tronic product is a copper earth electrode, sold as a lightning arrester, and it comes in a 4-foot length. Its job is straightforward: buried in the ground, it gives fault current a direct path into the earth, which is why it belongs to the earthing side of a lightning protection setup rather than the parts you see on a roof. It suits someone wiring a new earth point, replacing a corroded rod, or adding a second electrode to lower resistance. Before buying, confirm the length and material match your installation plan, since soil conditions and the depth you can drive a rod affect how well it performs. Compare it with longer rods or other electrode types if your ground is rocky or dry, and check how it will connect to your conductor. Available on Sokonia.
