Earthing and Lightning Protection Systems
Lightning, among nature's most powerful elements can carry around 1 billion volts of energy and can reach temperatures of 28,000�C. Despite the fact that a lightning discharge is of a noticeably short duration (typically 200 microseconds), it could cause massive destruction. The consequences of a lighting stroke are immediately apparent harm to plugged electrical devices, harm to the building, trees blown apart and personal injury.
Earthing systems play an essential role in lightning and surge protection by safely dissipating the power surges to ground. At Electric Way, we advocate a complete approach to earthing safety to protect your building structure, electronic systems and personnel therein.
Surge protection
- A reliable earthing protection scheme encompasses both structural lightning and transient voltage protection. They play a vital role in channeling electrical energy to the ground so that you can mitigate damages.
Lighting design
- The electrical bolts from lightning can trigger fires/ explosions and cause disruption around the building. Worse, they are able to cause equipment damage and personal injury. Earthing protection systems are created to give high voltage a safe and low impedance way to earth.
- Rather than traveling through the building?s electrical wiring, cabling paths or water pipes, where it might create significant destruction, the electrical energy is routed to a less destructive way to ground.
- A surge protection system will not completely eliminate the damage, but it can certainly reduce it by safe routing, rather than giving it free reign on the building.
Moreover, the increasing usage of electrical and electronics have necessitated the necessity for surge protection devices to guard them from voltage spikes. Heavy damages to important business systems will result in downtime, heavy financial loss and cripple the functioning of the organizations.
