External Lightning Protection Devices
Lightning protection systems are critical to prevent damage to a property during severe storms which can produce high-intensity lightning strikes.
Our dedication and commitment to excellence and safety in lightning protection and earthing systems are unrivaled across the construction industry guaranteeing the safety of project staff and the public.
Our team of expert engineers undertake detailed testing and inspection of completed installations. This includes verifying the installation is in accordance with the correct specification and compliant with all current legislation.
During these inspections, the mechanical condition of all conductors, bonds, joints and earth electrodes should be checked and the observations noted. These periodic inspections and tests will indicate what maintenance, if any, is needed.
Surge Protective Devices
Surge Protection Device is a component of the electrical installation protection system. This device is connected in parallel to the circuit of the loads that it has to protect. We carry a complete range of power surge protection devices – all designed to ensure that your systems are insulated from sudden spikes and surges in power supply.
All our surge protection equipment is sourced directly from leading manufacturers to ensure a cost-effective and best-engineered solution for clients.Once the transient overvoltage appears within the system, the impedance of the device decreases so surge current is driven through the SPD, bypassing the sensitive equipment.
Earthing and Grounding Systems
The earthing system plays a vital role in a co-ordinated lightning and surge protection system. It is responsible for safely dissipating the lightning currents to the ground but just as importantly, it plays a fundamental role in the efficient operation of surge protection devices.
It is essential that both HV & LV earth systems are correctly designed and installed by fully qualified and experienced earthing specialists. We help design, install & maintain earthing systems safely and comply with all the correct standards.
