Why Choose the ABB BRI2779 Special Stainless Steel Coupling for Strip?

The ABB BRI2779 Special Stainless Steel Coupling for Strip is a dedicated conductor coupling accessory for external lightning protection systems. Designed specifically for flat strip conductors, it provides a secure mechanical and electrical connection where two compatible lightning protection conductors need to be coupled or crossed without riveting.

Unlike ABB's standard conductor couplings, which can accommodate both flat strips and selected round conductors, the BRI2779 special strip model is designed exclusively for flat strip conductors. Its stainless-steel construction makes it particularly suitable for use with compatible stainless-steel conductor systems in exposed external lightning protection installations.

The coupling is supplied individually and has a unit weight of 0.204 kg. It is identified by ABB type BRI2779, has EAN 3660308522108 and is supplied under ABB order code 2CTH0BRI2779.

Reliable Coupling for Flat Lightning Protection Conductors

External lightning protection systems depend on reliable electrical continuity between air terminals, down conductors and the earth termination network. Where sections of flat conductor must be joined or crossed, the ABB BRI2779 provides a dedicated mechanical connection that eliminates the need to rivet the conductors together.

The BRI2779 is the special stainless-steel strip coupling within ABB's conductor coupling range and is intended only for compatible flat strips. This distinguishes it from ABB's standard and multiple coupling models, which support additional conductor profiles. Correct conductor material, dimensions, routing and connection methods should be selected as part of the complete lightning protection system design.

Typical Applications

  • Coupling compatible flat lightning protection conductors.
  • Crossing flat conductors in external lightning protection systems.
  • Stainless-steel lightning down-conductor installations.
  • Lightning protection earth termination systems.
  • Commercial and industrial building lightning protection.
  • Manufacturing facilities and warehouses.
  • Infrastructure and utility installations.
  • External lightning protection systems requiring conductor joints without riveting.
