Lightning Arrester Survey

a white wall with a clock on it

A Lightning Arrester Survey is a critical assessment aimed at evaluating the condition and effectiveness of lightning protection systems installed on structures and electrical equipment. The survey helps identify any weaknesses, damage, or outdated components that could compromise the system’s ability to safely divert lightning strikes and prevent catastrophic failures. By conducting a thorough inspection and testing of lightning arresters, grounding systems, and surge protection devices, we ensure that your facility remains protected against lightning-induced electrical surges,

Our Lightning Arrester Survey Process

Pre-Survey Planning

Pre-Survey Planning prepares documents and schedules access for a smooth inspection.

Visual Inspection

Inspect arresters, conductors, connectors, and terminals for damage or corrosion.

Electrical Testing

Perform resistance and continuity tests to verify lightning arrester function.

Surge Protection Device (SPD) Assessment

Check surge protectors for proper operation and surge diversion.

Documentation of Finding

Document observations, test results, and issues with photos and notes.

Recommendation and Reporting

Prepare a report on system condition, noting issues and recommending repairs or upgrades.

Follow-up and Maintenance

Recommend inspection schedules and maintenance to ensure compliance and reliability.

minimizing the risk of equipment damage, downtime, and safety hazards. Regular lightning arrester surveys are essential for maintaining compliance with safety standards and enhancing the overall reliability of your electrical infrastructure.
