Lightning Protection International Pty Ltd
LPI’s 4-Step Approach to Facility Protection
Our aim is to provide comprehensive and effective lightning protection. LPI has identified 4 essential steps to ensure complete facility protection every time.
A Global Company
LPI® Exothermic WeldingThe use of LPI® Exothermic welding process is a safe and efficient way of providing a permanent connection between conductors.
Exothermic welding is a cost effective method of completing a high quality electrical connection. The process is simple to follow and through the use of a high temperature reaction a long lasting, quality electrical bond is created between conductors.
• LPI® Exothermic connections will not corrode or rust with age
• No water ingress like bolt type, crimping and compression connections
• Current carrying capacity equal to that of the conductor
• Economical and simple to install
Contact LPI or an authorised representative for details on the LPI Exothermic range of products.
Advantages
1. Does not deteriorate with age since the connections are permanent.
2. Does not loosen as the EXOWELD connections create a permanent molecular bond.
3. Excellent corrosion resistance.
4. Electrical characteristics are higher than typical mechanical connections.
5. Does not increase resistance above that of the conductor.
6. No external power or heat is required to make connections.
7. Quality can be assessed visually.
8. Easy and simple to install.

Making an LPI® Exothermic Connection1. Fit a handle clamp with a pre-determined carbon mold as
per your specification.
2. Remove all moisture from the mold through the use of a blow torch.
3. Fit a dry and clean conductor into the mold and close the handles to lock the carbon mold.
4. Drop the metal disk into the mold so as to hold the weld metal powder in place.
5. Place the weld metal into the mold.
6. Connect the universal igniter (one required per weld) to the ignition lead.
7. Position the end of the universal ignitor lead so that it sits in the weld metal powder.
8. Close the lid of the mold.
9. Press the ignition button on the remote ignition unit.
10. Open the mold after the metal solidifies, remove any slag from the mold.
11. Clean the mold for the next connection.
