    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Describes requirements and tests for metallic and non-metallic conductor fasteners that are used in conjunction with the air termination system and down conductors; and fixing of fasteners to the fabric/membrane/gravel roofing of structures is not covered by this standard due to the vast number and types used in modern day construction.
