lightning strike counter installation

A  lightning counter is a  handy gadget to  keep people safe in locations that might be struck by lightning. Storms can  be dangerous when there is lightning. It has the potential to ignite fires, injure people and ruin buildings. You can even monitor the proximity of lightning strikes by integrating a lightning strike counter. This information is important. It also helps  facility managers determine whether they need to take additional safety precautions or inspect their lightning protection systems. Companies like Telebahn produce these counters  to help enhance safety and save lives.

A lightning strike counter is more than a  gadget, it’s  a lifesaver. Imagine a school or factory where large numbers of people are  working or studying. If the lightning strikes,  it could spell trouble.  A lightning strike counter will count the number of times a  strike  occurs near the facility. This is vital information for safety. For instance, if the counter reveals  an unusual number of  strikes  in a short period, perhaps the facility  manager will move people  indoors or shut down  some  machines. Additionally, using devices like AC SPD Type 2 can help protect facilities from electrical surges during storms.

How Does a Lightning Strike Counter Enhance Safety in Your Facility?

The number of discharges aids in planning maintenance of lightning protection systems. If strikes  are more common, it  might be time to investigate whether the  lightning rods and grounding system are doing their jobs. Plus, having that data can be  useful in the event of an insurance claim if lightning does  end up causing damage. Insurance firms typically ask for proof of how  often lightning has struck in a given area. With a  counter, you get that  proof  right at once.

In  addition, a lightning counter can provide some  type of education to employees and students concerning safety. “As  people see the number of strikes, they become more aware of storm threat. Knowing this can potentially  have implications for safety, such as staying away from windows or not using electrical devices during a storm.  The use of such an apparatus, however, has not only a positive safety effect but one  which  encourages caution and  preparedness. Telebahn's lightning strike counters gives this important information, and such devices are a valuable part of  safety  equipment at  any institution.
