Lightning provides eye-catching images across the sky but buildings need protection to prevent severe damage from strikes.
With lightning discharges containing enough energy to light more than 500,000 100-watt bulbs, protection systems are vital to prevent structural damage, fires, electrical shocks, equipment failure and much more.
That’s where Royce Cross Group plays a key role by assisting customers to provide a safe, low-resistance path for electrical discharge to travel to the ground.
Our team will assist customers in designing the best earthing and lightning protection system to suit their needs.
A lightning protection system intercepts direct lightning strikes and safely disperses massive electrical energy into the ground.
The system provided by Australian designer and manufacturer LPI (Lightning Protection International) considers the striking distance range and aims for protection, focusing on safe pathways for the energy.
LPI’s approach to protection systems includes:
- Definition and provision of area protection;
- Creation of a bonded earthing system;
- Protection of mains power lines; and,
- Protection of signal, data and communication lines.
Royce Cross Group is proud to be a long-time distributor of LPI products, which are manufactured to the highest standard through modern manufacturing processes to a certified management system that complies with the requirements of AS/NZ ISO 9001:2008.
The scope of certification encompasses the design, manufacture, assembly, sales, installation and commissioning of lightning and surge protection equipment and earthing materials
Importantly, the Royce Cross Group team works closely with customers to provide the best lightning protection system to suit their needs.
