What is an ESE Lightning Arrester?
An ESE lightning arrester is an advanced lightning protection device that provides a larger coverage area than conventional air terminals. It initiates upward streamers earlier than natural lightning leaders, enabling it to intercept lightning strikes before they hit the protected structure.
Unlike traditional rods that rely on passive discharge, ESE arresters use a timing mechanism to emit the upward streamer earlier—thereby increasing the protection radius significantly.
Key Features of Our ESE Lightning Arresters
- Tested as per NFC 17-102 and IEC standards
- Range of coverage radius up to 100 m based on model and elevation of installation
- Constructed of stainless steel which is weatherproof, non-corrosive, and resistant to corrosion
- Built-in triggering system for early streamer emission
- Maintenance-free performance for 15–20 years
- Lightning impulse current capacity up to 200 kA
Benefits of Using ESE Lightning Arresters
- Covers broad areas with Class I, II, III protection levels
- Decreases likelihood of fires, damage to equipment, and loss of data
- Best suited for tall structures, expansive open areas, as well as high-risk zones
- Easy integration with down conductors and earthing systems
- Long-term cost-effective protection for life and assets
Applications
ESE lightning arresters are suitable for:
- Airports and helipads
- Distributed among industrial warehouses and factories
- Shopping malls and commercial complexes
- Educational institutions and hospitals
- Oil & gas refineries and substations
- Sports stadiums, schools, and monuments

FAQs
ESE arresters proactively emit an upward streamer, increasing the radius of protection, unlike passive rods that rely on chance interception.
All our ESE devices are manufactured and tested as per NFC 17-102, IEC 62305, and relevant IS codes.
Coverage depends on the height of installation. For example, a 6m mast with our ESE60 model can cover up to a 120m radius.
Yes. We offer arresters with masts, brackets, down conductors, clamps, and earthing kits as per site needs.
Minimal. Visual checks annually and earthing inspection every two years are generally sufficient.
