COMMENTS DUE: August 18, 2005
A meeting of the Standards Technical Panel of UL for Lightning Protection was held June 16-17, 2005
at The Marriott Suites Sand Key, in Clearwater Beach, Florida. The purpose of the meeting was to
discuss UL standards pertaining to lightning protection.
1. Task Group Reports Concerning the Proposed Twelfth Edition of the Standard for the
Installation Requirements for Lightning Protection Systems, UL 96A
MEETING DISCUSSION
The following task groups were formed at the September 2004 STP 96 Meeting in Arlington, Virginia to
study and review submitted proposals in key areas of the Proposed Twelfth Edition of UL 96A, Installation
Requirements for Lightning Protection Systems. Each group was charged with either; accepting proposals
as presented, accepting proposals with changes, or rejecting individual proposals.
These reports were discussed at length at the current STP Meeting and updated revisions to the
Proposed Twelfth Edition were made. A number of task groups, having obtained their objective were
discharged, while others are still charged with further revisions to the standard. A complete list of active
Task Groups can be found at the end of this meeting report.
The STP Chairman anticipates sending out the new edition for ballot shortly after the publishing of this
meeting report, and comments resulting from that ballot will then be addressed at a comment resolution
meeting for the STP in October of this year.
UL 96A SCOPE TASK GROUP

--`,``,`,,````,,`,,`,```,,,`,,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
The Task Group was charged with reviewing the scope of UL 96A and NFPA 780 and to identify any
changes that need to be proposed to either STP 96 or NFPA 780 with regard to clearly defining the scope
of each document.

SUBJECT 96A -2- JULY 18, 2005
The task group submitted a rewording of the scope which helps to clarify the requirements covering the
application and inspection for the installation of lightning protection on all types of new and existing
structures.
The task group was discharged of any further tasks by the Chairman.
UL 96A AND NFPA 780 COMPARISON
Having determined that NFPA 780 and UL 96A contain different language and, in some cases, different
requirements, the Task Group was charged with reviewing and comparing UL 96A and NFPA 780 side by
side in order to provide new proposals to STP 96 to harmonize the two standards where possible.
As of the date of the STP 96 meeting, no report was prepared and no action was completed. The STP
Chair appointed a new task group chairman and added a new member to the group. A preliminary report
is due to the STP Chairman by November 1, 2005.
SECTION 13 REVIEW
The Task Group was charged with reviewing the proposals on Section 13 of UL 96A that were submitted
in the first draft of the proposed Third Edition of UL 1449, dated July 19, 2004 and determining a course
of action for each. Discussion on the task group’s recommendations resulted in updated revisions to the
proposed Third Edition.
These revisions included clarification of requirements in 13.1-13.4 and moving the requirements of 13.5
and 13.6 to Section 26, Protection for Miscellaneous Structures. As a result, a new task group was formed
to recommend requirements for nonmetallic masts, lightning poles, etc. to the STP.
SECTION 11 REVIEW
The Task Group was charged with reviewing submitted proposals for Section 11 of the proposed 12th
Edition of UL 96A dated July 19, 2004, and providing the STP with a recommended action for each. This
task group’s work overlapped significantly with the Bodies of Inductance/Conductance task group.
Discussion at the meeting on the task group’s recommended proposals led to numerous revisions to the
Section. A good deal of the dialogue centered on the terminology used in referring to metal bodies and
the best method for determining whether a metal body is isolated or not.
Because of these discussions, the terms “inductance and conductance”, when referring to metal bodies,
was removed, and clarified with terms such as “strike termination devices” and “grounded metal bodies”.
Also, the requirement for the use of the mega-ohm tester and continuity tester to determine whether a
body is isolated, as referred to in 11.3a, was deleted. It was determined that Field Services instructions
will provide a method to verify an isolated metal body.
GRAIN ELEVATORS
The Task Group was charged with contacting insurance companies and other corporations in order to
obtain information on industry standards for lightning protection of grain elevators.
It was determined that UL and NFPA standards are the only standards being applied for lightning
protection to grain elevators and therefore, STP 96 should take a closer look at the current requirements
in UL 96A and revise requirements where necessary. The task group was discharged and a new task
group will be formed in the future to recommend new requirements for Grain Elevators.

--`,``,`,,````,,`,,`,```,,,`,,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---

BODIES OF INDUCTANCE / CONDUCTANCE
The Task Group was charged with reviewing UL 96A and providing alternate language for the current
terms “bodies of inductance” and “bodies of conductance”. This task was conducted in conjunction with
the Section 11 review task force. Revised wording is included in Section 11 of the Proposed Twelfth
Edition of UL 96A.
This task group was discharged.
GROUNDING TASK GROUP
The task group was charged with studying the different grounding options allowed by UL 96A and NFPA
780 and to identify any changes that should be proposed to STP 96A. Items identified for consideration
were: rod placement, rod location; inside versus outside of the building, cantilever buildings, and concrete
encased rods.
Discussion on the proposals submitted by the task group led to numerous revisions to Section 10,
Grounding, including modifications to ground terminals located inside a structure, multiple ground rods
and ground ring electrodes. The task group originally recommended that concrete encased electrodes
should not be permitted because of the difficulty of providing inspections. However, based upon
discussions at the meeting, the task group is currently reviewing the pros and cons associated with the
use of concrete encased electrodes and will advise whether to uphold it’s previous recommendation to
disallow them
2) Proposed Revisions for UL 96A
BACKGROUND
Most of the proposed revisions to UL 96A were addressed during the task group reports under Topic Item
1. However, numerous revisions, not included in the task group reports, were also introduced at the
meeting under New Business. In accordance with STP Regulations, the STP Chairman conducted a straw
--`,``,`,,````,,`,,`,```,,,`,,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
poll (of STP members present) for each of these items to determine approval for discussion.
Based on discussion of the approved items, revisions to the following paragraphs were submitted for
inclusion to the Proposed Twelfth Edition of UL 96A:
1) Common Ground requirement in 10.4.1
2) Deletion of second sentence in 8.8.2
3) Revision to 8.2.1
4) Addition of sprinkler lines in 9.4.1
5) Addition of galvanized steel in 7.5
6) Change to down conductor requirement in 9.3.2
7) Task group formed to address air terminal support methods in 8.1.8.

3) Proposed Revisions for the Standard for Lightning Protection Components, UL 96 Including a
Report From the Bi-Metal Fittings Task Group
--`,``,`,,````,,`,,`,```,,,`,,-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
No revisions for UL 96 were presented and the only item discussed was the report by the Bi-Metal Fittings
Task Group.
The task group was charged with reviewing Chapter 11 of UL 96, and to identify and then propose any
changes needed to clearly define bi-metal fitting requirements. Discussion on the task group’s
recommended revisions led to a straw poll vote being taken to determine the need to further develop the
submitted revised requirements. The STP voted in favour of further development, and a new member was
added to the task group to capitalize on his expertise in bi-metals.
4) Future Meeting Schedule
A meeting of STP 96 is tentatively scheduled for October of 2005.
