Why Lightning Protection Matters

Critical Grounding

Poor grounding can result in inoperative surge protection and delayed fault detection, exposing your facility to risk.

Safety Assurance

Grounding systems provide low-resistance paths to redirect foreign potentials, protecting equipment and operations from lightning-induced faults.

Comprehensive Lightning Protection Testing Schedule

Regular Inspections

• During construction and installation phases.
• After system installation.

Periodic Testing

• Following repairs or alterations.
• As recommended by IEC 62305-3, LPI 175, and NFPA 780 Standards.

Key Testing Methods

Ground Resistance Testing

Verifies the reliability of ground rods and systems.

Point-to-Point Testing

Ensures electrical continuity across connections and joints.

Soil Resistivity Testing

Identifies optimal grounding locations for cost-effective installation.

Benefits of Regular Testing

Compliance

Confirms adherence to industry standards.

Corrosion-Free Components

Ensures components are functional and corrosion-free.

System Integration

Incorporates new services or structures into the protection system.

Applications for Lightning Protection Testing

Ground Resistance

Measure ground rod and grid resistance in multi-grounded systems.

Recreational Areas

Ensure proper grounding in public pools and other facilities.

Construction Sites

Test grounding systems at new construction sites and large facilities.
