While major disasters such as hurricanes, wildfires, and tornadoes make the national news, lightning is often overlooked. Yet a single lightning bolt is capable of generating more than 50,000 degrees F of heat – enough heat to ignite a building and surge disastrously through its circuitry.
Lightning protection systems help mitigate the risk of damage caused by lightning by safely controlling the electrical energy of a lightning strike and harmlessly dispersing that energy into the ground.
Lightning protection is an extremely specialized discipline therefore lightning protection systems should only be installed by experienced UL-listed professionals.
