Our Engineer is requesting to Bond Roof AC equipment to Lightning protection system i.e extending the copper tape that is installed around the roof parapet and connect it to the body of AC equipment (roof compressor for split unit system) on Roof.
I am trying to convince him that putting this equipment under coverage of air terminals is enough. In addition, I am not sure whether this is safe for equipment or even allowed in the code.
Can you advise whether this has been tackled anywhere in the code and do you support my statement that it is not advisable to do so?
Thank you
