A Lightning Protection Study involves evaluating the adequacy and effectiveness of existing lightning protection systems. It includes risk assessment, system design and implementable protective measures to safeguard structures & equipment from lightning-induced damage.
Proper lightning protection is crucial for:
Ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment by preventing lightning-related hazards.
Complying with international standards such as IEC 62305 and local regulations.
Reducing the risk of fire, equipment damage and operational downtime.
Protecting critical infrastructure and maintaining service continuity.
Effective internal lightning protection is essential for mitigating risks associated with transient over voltages. SPDs are crucial for:
Ensuring Safety: Protecting sensitive equipment from damage caused by surges and voltage spikes.
Compliance with Standards: Meeting international standards such as IEC 62305 for lightning protection and IEC 61643 for SPD performance.
Preventing Equipment Damage: Reducing the risk of failure in electronic devices, industrial machinery, and critical systems due to electrical surges.
Minimizing Operational Downtime: Avoiding costly disruptions caused by equipment damage or failure during lightning events.
At JEF, our Lightning Protection Studies encompass a range of key services:
Risk Assessment: Evaluating the risk of lightning strikes to determine the need for protection and the level of protection required.
System Design: Designing external and internal lightning protection systems based on the assessed risk and protection levels.
Implementation: One team will always have an eye & ensure the designs recommended will be practically implementable
Cost: Our solutions will be cost optimal and our BOQ will always reflect the most optimal cost for a given project.
JEF’s team is certified and trained in the latest standards and practices, including:
