Lightning Protection Assessment

Why Lightning Protection Assessment is Important

Lightning is a powerful natural phenomenon that poses significant risks to structures, electrical systems, and human safety. A Lightning Protection Assessment is a systematic evaluation designed to determine the vulnerability of a facility or structure to lightning strikes and to recommend appropriate protective measures.

Why is an LPS Adequacy Audit Essential?

➤ Assess Lightning Risk – Identify potential threats and evaluate risk levels based on international safety standards.
➤ Ensure Structural & Equipment Protection – Determine if your facility is adequately shielded from radiated and conducted surges.
➤ Evaluate System Health & Compliance – Check whether the existing LPS is effective, reliable, and meets the latest regulations.
➤ Identify Gaps & Weaknesses – Detect vulnerabilities in the protection system and recommend corrective measures.
➤ Enhance Safety & Business Continuity – Protect personnel, infrastructure, and sensitive equipment from electrical surges and fire hazards
