Every day, lightning strikes homes and properties somewhere in the world. Any structure in the path of an electrical storm is at risk. While only lasting for a few microseconds, lightning causes a dangerous voltage surge that can destroy your electronic devices. A power surge can enter your house either via a direct strike, or indirectly. Direct strikes occur when lightning passes directly through a building, often causing major damage and fires. Indirect strikes occur when lightning strikes ground nearby, or power lines directly connected to a house. When this happens, any connected appliance or electronic device can be destroyed. Lightning Eliminators & Consultants Inc. provides solutions suitable for all types of installations and all risk levels.

Surge protection Most of us have a basic idea of what power surge means. We know it is something that affects the electrical power we receive and that it has the power to seriously damage or destroy industrial equipment, computers, and sensitive electronics. www.lightningprotection.com
Surge protection As technology increases, consumers demand that the electrical items we use get smaller, which means the components inside are also smaller. The reduction in the size of these components over the years now makes electronic equipment so sensitive to over-voltage. Over a while, this equipment slowly degrades due to surge, which gradually shortens the lifespan of the equipment. This phenomenon affects everything that is plugged into power, from industrial machinery to computers. The consequential damages suffered during events like lightning strikes or electrical surge due to lightning strike can be very high. www.lightningprotection.com
Surge protection types of surges cause equipment damage, lockup, and malfunction which will translate into expensive downtime, repair, and replacement costs. Simply put a power surge is fluctuation of the voltage coming from a source or a power panel which can drastically increase the voltage received, causing a temporary overcurrent of the electric supply. Industrial surge protection devices protect against transient overvoltages, spikes, and impulses. In industrial settings, these www.lightningprotection.com
Typesofsurge protection: • Permanently connected surge protection devices. These protect against external and internal surges. May be installed outside or inside a facility. • Permanently connected SPDs installed in or next to the main panel. They protect against internal and external surges. • Point of use surge protection devices. Provides limited protection to devices directly plugged into the SPD. www.lightningprotection.com
Surge protection devices protect against: • Equipment damage • Equipment downtime • Lost revenue • Productivity loss www.lightningprotection.com
