Lightning Protection

Lightning protection systems (LPS) are a critical safety measure designed to safeguard structures, occupants, and electrical systems from the potentially devastating effects of lightning strikes. In line with risk management principles outlined in standards such as BS EN 62305, LPS provide a proactive and engineered solution that mitigates the risk of fire, structural damage, and electrical surges. By intercepting lightning strikes and safely conducting the energy to ground, these systems protect both people and property without requiring active intervention or specialist operation. As a passive safety system, a properly designed and maintained LPS offers reliable protection with minimal user input, making it an essential component of any comprehensive building safety strategy.

How Does a Lightning Protection System Work?

Lightning Protection Systems are designed to channel current safely to the ground. They do this using a series of parts:

Air Termination Network: this part is designed to protect the structure on the roof. This is what gets hit if lightning is to strike.
Down Conductor Network: this carries the current from roof level down the side of the structure giving the current an easy root toward ground.
Earth Termination Network: receives any electrical current from the down conductors and takes this into the earth so it can dissipate safely.
