A Systematic Approach towards Lightning Protection

1. A Systematic Approach towards Lightning Protection https://www.lightningprotection.com/

2. Due to the changing weather phenomenon, the number of lightning strikes has significantly increased. And all too often when lightning strikes an industrial plant, equipment is damaged and operations curtailed; there is an initial rush to get the plant operational again – A reasonable response. Once the plant is operational, the question of how to protect the plant against the next lightning strike comes. With our 4 decades of experience we know for sure that inevitably an ad hoc approach is taken. This results in installing a lightning protection system that does nothing to protect the equipment that was originally damaged. Best way forward will be a systematic approach – applying to national and international standards, carrying out risk assessment and then acting upon its results to find a cost effective yet successful solutions.

3. A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH 1. Risk Assessment • This study considers the following criteria to decide the probability of a lightning strike on that building and its consequent effects: • Use of structure (factory, school, hospital, etc) • Type of construction • Material / process vulnerable to fire • Degree of isolation of the building from nearby structures • Location of building – this decides the lightning strike density (number of thunderstorms/km3/year)

4. 2. Acting upon results • Lightning protection is required almost everywhere! Virtually all populated regions have varying incidences of lightning strikes. There is meaningful risk worldwide, also it minimise exposure to serious risk such as: • Afire outbreak • Fried electrical wiring • Damage to electronics and electrical items • Injured employees • Liability claims • Risky working environment

5. A Lightning protection system helps in preventing property damage from the effects of a lightning strike. It provides a means for controlling and preventing damages by providing a low resistance path for the discharge of lightning energy. • We, Lightning Eliminators, are a professional company that engineers, produces and distributes technology which provides reliable lightning protection solutions. We have successfully completed many projects using our patented products, in various industries, such as: • Towers and remote radio architectures in support of of 4G and 5G networks, microwaves and others. • Electric supply lines wherein our patented LPS are deployed along multiple points to mitigate the risk of equipment damage due to lightning.
