What should you know about eurostar es.60 ese lightning protection?
Eurostar ES.60 is a non-electronic ESE air terminal with a documented 60 microsecond initiation advance under NF C 17-102:2011.
3E supplies the terminal with project design support from Jaipur. Published radius depends on protection level and tip height, so the number cannot be lifted from a brochure and dropped onto an unrelated roof.

NF C 17-102:2011
Initiation advance
60 microseconds
Technical view
How is the protection radius selected?
Risk assessment comes first. IS/IEC 62305-2 establishes the protection requirement, while the NF C 17-102 radius table then uses protection level and terminal height above the protected surface.
What completes an ESE installation?
The head is only visible hardware. The supplied schedule also calls for a mast, down conductor, strike counter, bonding and chemical earth system, with the terminal mounted at least 2 metres above the highest protected point.

Applications
Which sites may specify ES.60?
Use the application to settle the duty, material, dimensions and evidence required in the offer.
- 01
Solar and industrial sites
Exposed equipment and structures assessed through a project-specific lightning-risk study.
- 02
Hotels, hospitals and campuses
Buildings where protection level and layout follow the assessed consequence of a strike.
- 03
Warehouses and substations
Large roofs and utility areas with planned down-conductor and earth routes.
Questions from site and procurement teams
What should be clear before you proceed?
Does ES.60 always protect a 79 metre radius?
No. The 79 m figure applies to Level I at a 5 m tip height in the supplied table. Roof geometry and risk assessment still control the layout.
Does one ESE terminal replace every conventional system?
No. Terminal count and protection method depend on the structure, risk, height and approved standard. There is no honest universal substitution rule.
Is 3E authorised for Eurostar products?
A Euro Engineering letter dated 1 January 2020 names Rakesh K Jain and 3E for PWD BSR Jaipur enlistment and supply, unless withdrawn. Confirm current territory for the project.
Does an ESE terminal replace surge protection?
No. External lightning protection, equipotential bonding and surge protection address different parts of the same event and need coordinated design.
