In this tutorial, I will demonstrate how to mount HVI long air termination rods to building

walls.

To do that, I can use the building of our prior tutorial with the elevated ring conductors.

First of all, we delete this part of the elevated ring conductor.

Then we can choose the appropriate wall conductor holder in the DIN library under HVI long,

interception rod holder and wall mounting bracket.

Now we can place the chosen wall mounting bracket on the wall.

For a better view, we switch to side view.

The numbers in the blue box indicate the distance to the building edges upwards and

left or right.

Of course, we can simply enter the chosen distance by entering the numbers on the keyboard.

Now the position of the holder is fixed and we can align it with the help of our mouse

cursor.

A second click defines the final position of the holder.

We can see that directly a second bracket is attached to our mouse cursor and we can

place it if we need to do that due to the wind load.

Again, we have the option to place by hand or using the keyboard.

To terminate the active command, we press escape or click right and choose exit.

In the following, we choose a matching air termination rod.

Air termination rods with a side outlet that are slotted at the bottom do not match the

wall mounting brackets.

We can only place them on a surface.

So we choose an appropriate air termination rod

and can see that the rod always connects to the holder we choose.

If we want to place the rod into both brackets, we need to choose the lower holder and the

air termination rod will automatically be fixed in both holders.

Now we can create the down conductor with the icon lay round wire on walls.

Choose HVI long, switch to side view, select the air termination rod, click on the wall

surface and click again on the point where the down

conductor should end.

We choose the final point depending on the height of the test joint and then exit with

escape.

To add the earth connection, we select the conductor, click right and choose add earth

connection.

Dean Plan does the rest for us and makes all the necessary connections and places the right

holders.

Let's see how that looks in realistic view.

And that's it for this tutorial.

Thanks for watching.
