Scope
GB/T 33588.2-2020 (Lightning protection system components (LPSC) - Part 2: Requirements for air-termination systems, down-conductors and earth electrodes) is available as an English-translated PDF.
GB/T 33588.2-2020 is the Chinese standard "Lightning protection system components (LPSC) - Part 2: Requirements for air-termination systems, down-conductors and earth electrodes".
Its scope clause reads: This part of GB/T 33588 specifies the requirements and test methods for the following lightning protection system components. ---Metal conductors (non-"natural" conductors) that constitute the air-termination device and down conductor; ---The metal grounding pole that forms the grounding device.
Note. Non-"natural" conductors refer to specially designed air-termination or down conductors, rather than using natural metal parts (such as building steel bars, etc.), see 3.15 of GB/T 21714.3-2015. Its clauses include terms and definitions.
