Direct strike lightning protection systems are crucial for safeguarding structures and equipment against the destructive forces of lightning strikes. These systems are designed to intercept lightning strikes and provide a safe path for the electrical current to dissipate harmlessly into the ground, thus preventing damage to buildings, infrastructure, and sensitive electronics.

Key components of direct strike lightning protection systems include lightning rods, conductors, and grounding systems. Lightning rods, also known as air terminals, are strategically placed on high points of buildings or structures to attract lightning strikes. Conductors, such as cables or rods, are used to conduct the lightning current safely to the grounding system. Grounding systems consist of buried conductors and grounding electrodes that dissipate the electrical energy into the earth.

Effective direct strike lightning protection systems adhere to rigorous standards and guidelines. By implementing these systems, we can mitigate the risks associated with lightning strikes and protect their investments from costly damage and downtime.

We provide engineering consulting and design services across many industries, including oil & gas, processing plants, aviation, telecommunications, mining, defence, power utilities, renewable energy and transport.
