Наконец, он настаивает на периодическом осмотре и тщательном применении электрических испытаний. В приложении он описывает свои собственные испытательные устройства с результатами почти 500 испытаний, проведенных им для Военного министерства, из которых он заключает, «что при молниеотводах, установленных в настоящее время Военным министерством, электрическое тестирование имеет небольшую ценность». Тем не менее, несмотря на это суровое осуждение, он утверждает, что молниеотводы, существующие сейчас на наших пороховых складах и укреплениях, еще ни разу не подвели.
Спецификация (№ 3925. Сентябрь 1880 г.) Сэмюэля Вайла. МОЛНИЕОТВОДЫ.
(Abstracted by G. J. Symons, F.R.S.)
Изобретение можно разделить на две части. Во-первых, изобретатель предлагает, чтобы вместо, например, центральной пряди семижильного медного проволочного каната была центральная проволока, изолированная от остальных и соединенная с ними только в месте соединения с верхним приемником молниеотвода, в то время как внизу эта изолированная проволока выводится от земли к какому-либо месту, где к ней легко получить доступ.
Во-вторых, имеется дифференциальный гальванометр, катушка сопротивления и другое оборудование, которое, будучи соединенным с молниеотводом и с изолированной проволокой, позволит в любое время считывать эффективность молниеотвода.
О ЧАСТИЧНОЙ ЗАЩИТЕ ЗДАНИЙ.
(By Prof. T. Hayter Lewis, F.S.A.)
Ниже приведены предложения, с помощью которых обычные материалы, используемые в строительстве, могут в некоторой степени быть использованы в качестве защиты от молнии:
(1) Когда крыши и стены здания покрыты оцинкованным листовым железом на деревянном каркасе, если эти покрытия имеют хорошие контакты с землей, либо сами по себе, либо через обычную железную водосточную трубу, здание можно считать безопасным.
(2) Коттеджи и небольшие дома обычно имеют железные карнизные желоба, шиферные или черепичные ребра и коньки, цементные отливы и железные водосточные трубы. Если соединения прочны, а земля у основания водосточных труб влажная, дома будут в значительной степени защищены от уровня карнизных желобов и ниже. Но так как они будут совершенно не защищены на этом уровне, желательно наличие проволочного каната или металлической ленты от верха самого высокого дымохода до желобов, что значительно уменьшит риск.
(3) В больших зданиях желоба, водосточные трубы, ребра, коньки и отливы крыши часто делаются из свинца. Если трубы имеют хорошие контакты с землей, а молниеотводы закреплены от дымоходов или других выступов к свинцовым конструкциям, здания будут в некоторой степени защищены.
(4) Когда ребра и коньки крыш выполнены из шифера, терракоты или других непроводящих материалов, потребуются молниеотводы вдоль коньков, соединенные с водосточными трубами, а также с остриями вдоль конька и с дымоходами.
Но все вышеописанные здания будут подвержены риску несовершенных соединений, плохого качества работ и т. д.; поэтому ни одно сооружение нельзя считать безопасным, если оно не защищено одним или несколькими молниеотводами утвержденного размера и металла, с тщательно сконструированными соединениями и заземлителями.
