The BS EN 62305:2006 standards outline the types of damage that can be incurred due to lightning and the need for protection. Risks identified include:
- Loss of human life
- Loss of service to the public
- Loss of cultural heritage
- Loss of economic value
Lightning Protection Systems (LPS) can reduce the physical damage caused by a lightning strike to a structure. This intercepts the strike and disperses it safely to the earth. Details on LPS installation are listed in BS EN 62305-3.
Step voltage threats can be reduced by means of a meshed conductor earthing arrangement which we can assemble.
