Lightning Protection

Power systems have always been susceptible to the detrimental effects of lightning.  The rapidly advancing field of electronic based control systems has created a problem unknown to earlier electrical and electronic products.  Lightning and its influences have been the greatest contributor to both destructive and disruptive phenomena; to power lines, data lines, and even the overall facility.

Solving these problems requires a specialized form of expertise in lightning protection concepts, power systems protection and/or conditioning systems usually not available within most industry's engineering departments or electrical engineering firms.  Techniques used as little as five years ago are ineffective in the contemporary system's environment.  Furthermore, equipment manufacturers are not necessarily applications experts.
