The metal panels must not have an insulating coating, and the roof panels can serve as lightning arresters. Curtain wall lightning protection design is based on the "Building Lightning Protection Design Code" GB50057-2010.
[0016] 3. The roof lightning protection down conductor points are distributed in a grid no larger than 5Mx5M. At each lightning protection down conductor position on the metal roof, that is, the intersection of the lightning protection grid, the insulation pad under the fixing seat should be removed to ensure that the current can be conducted from the roof to the main steel structure and the grounding point.
