A Camera Pole Earthing Kit provides a protective grounding connection for outdoor CCTV camera poles to help reduce electrical shock hazards and safely manage fault currents and certain surge currents.
The kit includes an earth electrode, copper earthing conductor, clamps, cable lugs and installation accessories. It bonds the metallic camera pole to the designed protective earthing system and may be coordinated with lightning and surge protection devices where required.
