Industrial & Commercial Lightning Protection

As a global, full-service lightning protection and static solutions provider, Lightning Master specializes in a scientific, engineering-based approach to lightning protection and mitigation services for industrial and commercial facilities. We protect against:

PHYSICAL DAMAGE

Lightning strikes contain an intense amount of heat and current that can cause physical damage to buildings and equipment.

SECONDARY EFFECT DAMAGE

The point on earth where lightning strikes will be relatively vacated of ground charge. The surrounding ground charge rushes toward that point, which can lead to arcing and induce currents in equipment or structures. Arcing could cause damage to rotating bearing, circuit boards, and ignition of flammable material or vapor.

ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE (EMP) DAMAGE

The on/off nature of a lightning discharge produces an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) that can induce unwanted current in nearby conductors or masses of metal. EMP damage can affect facilities a substantial distance away from where a lightning strike occurs.

GROUND REFERENCE POTENTIAL CHANGE DAMAGE

Lightning damage can occur when current flows through conductors due to the difference in potential at different locations. If a lightning strike is closer to one location than the other, a substantial difference in potential can be created, producing significant current flow.
