Lightning Detection and Warning Systems
At All South Lightning Protection, we design and install lightning detection and warning systems. These systems give you an early warning of an incoming lightning strike. This allows you to protect your business and employees quickly.
A lightning detection system is key to any lightning protection plan. It works with a lightning conductor and lightning arrestor to fully protect against lightning strikes.
A lightning detection system alerts you to lightning activity at different distances. For example, it can send a caution alert when lightning is 32 km away. A warning alert is sent when it’s 16 km away. An alarm alert goes off when lightning is just 8 km away, giving you enough time to act.
The system also works with a lightning arrestor to stop power surges and electrical damage.
Some important features of a lightning detection and warning system include:
- Real-time lightning data analysis
- Customized email and text message notifications
- Automatic or manual siren actuation
- Secure encoded RF communications
A lightning conductor is vital in a lightning protection system. It offers a safe path for electrical discharge. With a lightning arrestor, it prevents power surges and electrical damage. Our team will help you design and install a full lightning protection system. This includes a lightning detection system, conductor, and arrestor, giving you peace of mind and protection.
