Lightning Risk Assessment
We offer a Comprehensive Lightning Protection System India and outside India. WIRE provides end-to-end solutions that cover risk assessment, design, supply and installation, testing, and commissioning.
Lightning flashes can cause significant structural damage to a building, including damage to machinery and equipment inside and outside the building, and may harm the occupants. The damages and failures may also extend to the structure’s surroundings and involve the local environment. The scale of this extension depends on the structure’s characteristics and the lightning flash’s characteristics.
The engineering team at WIRE CONSULTANCY is well equipped with knowledge of the latest codes & standards. It has vast industrial experience in designing & implementing lightning protection systems. Thereby ensuring to deliver techno-economic favoring solutions for your organization.
A lightning risk assessment will look at factors such as:
- Height and shape of the structure
- Nearby trees or other tall objects
- Location on or near water
- Building material
Lightning Risk Assessment is used to identify areas that are especially likely to be struck by lightning. These areas are called “Lightning Protection Zones” or LPZs.
Lightning Risk Assessment is also useful for discovering whether or not your organization needs additional insurance coverage. Because lightning can cause such extensive damage, it may be necessary for you to purchase additional protection against this risk so that you don’t have to pay out-of-pocket when something goes wrong.
The benefits of this kind of assessment include:
- Identifying areas of your business that are at risk for lightning strikes
- Identifying areas where lightning may have already struck
- Determining whether or not there are any existing building codes or laws regarding lightning protection
- Providing recommendations on how to prevent future damage from occurring
