Lightning is a flash of light that accompanies a high-tension natural electric discharge in the atmosphere. With the construction of higher structures in lightning prone areas, there has been significant progress in the quest to improve the protection of these structures against lightning.

Direct or indirect lightning strikes have caused reactor trips in nuclear power generating stations. If nuclear power generating stations do not have adequate lightning protection and grounding, such stations may be exposed to greater risk of loss of offsite power, fire, and damage to equipment engi…
For superior lightning protection, a design is the first thing you will need.
From technical review to an extensive site survey; an LEC engineer will be able to help you determine the most effective protection system for your facility. Our process for lightning protection design is as follows:
…Lightning happens! While it can be a spectacular phenomenon to witness, it can also cause damage to property, structures, and even be fatal to human life. Without a doubt, expenses from lightning damage can be substantial—especially for companies whose equipment is installed on tall structures.
…Protection against direct strikes on structures such as telecommunication relay towers and other towers require the installations of an air terminal near the tip or on top of the tower and an installation of an efficient earthing connector to the ground.
How LEC implements lightning protection de…
Data Center - A boon in improved communication, data storage, and business efficiency. But, it has also introduced a new area of vulnerability. There are potentially expensive concerns to consider where it relates to lightning strikes. The equipment and infrastructure in such a facility, which inclu…
