What Are The Components Of a Lightning Protection System?
According to the NFPA, lightning strikes cause $451 million dollars in property damage each year.
Lightning Protection System Components:
1. Lightning Rods or Air Terminals
2. Conductor Cables
3. Ground Rods
4. Surge Protection Devices
The above components of commercial and home lightning protection systems, when installed correctly will provide the lightning surge a path to ground, avoiding damage to the structure.
While lightning rods help protect a structure and all occupants from a direct strike, a complete lightning protection system, including utility bonding, proper grounding, and surge protection, help prevent harmful electrical surges and possible fires.
