  1. Lightning Protection System To Manage the Risk of Lightning in Power Plants

  2. Lightning is an atmospheric discharge and one of the major causes of power system outages. This issue crops up frequently, accounting for as much as 40% of the total outages experienced. Such outages translate into a significant loss in revenue, increased liabilities and can lead to many unsatisfied customers. Consumers are demanding fewer interruptions and improved reliability. Hence, there is an urgent need to manage the risks pertaining to lightning in power plants. In order to do this properly, electric power companies should not only install lightning protection systems but implement a full and extensive lightning risk mitigation plan, which begins with a risk assessment and includes a customized design unique to the facility, followed by proper installation, and continual maintenance and inspection. This approach can save companies and customers millions of dollars in the long run. https://www.lightningprotection.com/

  3. Our plan for a lightning protection system solution: Planning start with accurate testing, assessment and design with the help of Smart Ground Audit – Smart Ground analyses the in-situ grounding environment and compares actual measurements to an electro-geometric computer model of the system being tested. The results are highly-accurate measurements and practical recommendations to help you make informed decisions. Technical review – this is a remotely conducted basic review based on photos, drawings and building plans provided by you. It provides an initial understanding of what your facility should plan for. Site Evaluation – is a more substantial review typically done on-site by our technical representative. This evaluation will generate a ‘Scope of Work’ which will allow your facility to better understand the dangers and analyse the risk your site faces from lightning’s direct and secondary effects. Design study – it provides a scientific evaluation of the site’s exposure and options for protection with findings and recommendations which may contain site specific drawings of recommended designs, a risk assessment as per IEC and a “Transient Analysis”. Site survey – this is the final stage of lightning protection system solution and is conducted after a purchase is made and before installation, and requires an engineer. https://www.lightningprotection.com/
