lightning arrester

The chief minister had held a meeting last week and asked state officials to install lightning arresters at all government buildings, including schools and hospitals, The Times of India newspaper reported.

Maintenance being done through Saturday on the so-called Big Tree in Rockport includes repair and replacement of parts of the lightning arrester system.

A lightning arrester system was installed so if it was struck, the charge would be grounded, preventing severe damage to the tree.

The simple principles of switchboard construction, the development of the switchboard, the connections of the various instruments, including the lightning arrester, are also plainly set forth.

Mr. Gibson understood the importance of lightning arresters, but was not prepared to apply them in his home.
