A lightning protection system prevents fire incidents, protects solar panels and inverters, reduces surge-related damage, and safeguards valuable appliances and machinery, making it an essential safety solution for factories, industrial facilities, and large-scale solar plants.
Orbital ESE Lightning Protection System in Pakistan
Lightning Arrester Price in Pakistan (Copper, Brass & ESE Orbital Guide)
The lightning arrester price in Pakistan starts from Rs. 7,500 to Rs. 8,500 for copper rods, Rs. 3,500 to Rs. 4,500 for brass rods, and Rs. 120,000 to Rs. 140,000 for advanced ESE Orbital Lightning Arresters such as Original ESE, CONTRA-30, and CONTRA-60 models. Prices vary based on material, technology, and coverage radius.
What Is a Lightning Arrester?
A lightning arrester is a protection device that safely diverts lightning strikes into the ground using a down conductor and earthing system. It prevents:
Fire hazards
Electrical surges
Inverter & solar panel damage
Equipment failure
Structural damage during thunderstorms
Lightning arresters are essential for homes, buildings, factories, commercial plazas, telecom towers, and solar systems across Pakistan.
How Does a Lightning Arrester Work?
A lightning arrester works by providing a low-resistance, direct path to the earth. When lightning strikes:
It hits the air terminal (rod or ESE head)
Travels down the down conductor
Discharges safely into the earthing pit / copper earth rod
This prevents lightning from hitting roofs, wiring, or electrical systems.
Types of Lightning Arresters in Pakistan
1. Copper Lightning Arrester (Conventional Type)
Copper lightning rods are commonly used in homes and small commercial sites.
Made from 99.9% pure copper, this lightning arrester offers high electrical conductivity, long-lasting performance, and easy installation, making it a reliable choice for effective lightning protection.
Price range in Pakistan
Rs. 7,500 to Rs. 8,500, and it is best suited for homes, mosques, shops, schools, and small solar installations, providing dependable safety at an affordable cost.
2. Brass Lightning Arrester (Economical Type)
Brass lightning arresters are a cost-effective and widely used solution for low-budget installations, offering durable brass construction, good electrical conductivity, and an affordable price without compromising basic safety.
Price range in Pakistan
Rs. 3,500 to Rs. 4,500, making them ideal for small buildings, boundary walls, sheds, and small solar systems.
