Comprehensive Lightning Protection Design Services for Key Commercial Projects

Protecting a premise against direct lightning strikes by preventing a lightning stroke is not exactly a new idea. It was Franklin’s original idea that he could dissipate the thundercloud electricity by installing the pointed iron rod. However, he changed his mind after his lightning rods were hit by lightning instead of preventing the strokes. During the past 250 years, Franklin rod successfully protected structures from the lightning-caused damage.

In the recent 5 decades, due to the explosive progress in computers/electronics technology, the secondary effect of the lightning stroke became the major concern in many cases. Generated by lightning current, the strong magnetic field around the downward conductor connecting the lightning rod to the grounding system caused the induced voltages of such a magnitude that it permanently damaged or caused malfunction of sensitive electronic equipment located nearby. The prevention of the direct lightning strokes into the premise is one of the ways to eliminate the damaging consequences of the secondary effect
