The Lightning protection Objective
Highly sensitive systems suffer frequent failures due to overvoltages caused by lightning and power switching operations.
The reasons for the ever increasing failure of equipment due to above mentioned causes are:
- the increasing amount of electronic equipment installed;
- the increasing sensitivity of equipment;
- the increasing amount of networking and remote controlled equipment.
- the unpredictable nature of a lightning storm or power surge.
The aim is to prevent any unnecessary losses to human lives, livestock, structures, and equipment due to unpredictable lightning discharges and overvoltage surges that can cause severe damages.
We have firsthand experience and knowledge in the field of lightning protection and earthing.
The service we provide is to enable the client to proceed with the necessary daily activities without being interrupted by malfunctioning equipment or destroyed assets after lightning or overvoltage damage. The cost involved in replacing faulty equipment and extensive insurance cost can be limited by installing an effective lightning and overvoltage system.
We adhere to the relevant IEC and SANS (prev SABS) codes to ensure optimum performance of installed lightning protection and earthing systems.
