On-site as-built survey and project meeting

For lightning protection planning, we will record the external conditions of your object or installation on site and discuss your project with you.

On-site acceptance of lightning protection and final project meeting

In the final project discussion, we enjoy presenting to you the result of the performed service in detail.

3D laser scanning

We use high-precision laser scanners for as-built surveys of objects or facilities and ensure the processing and registration of scans and point clouds.

Soil resistivity testing/measurement

Physical testing of the soil at your site.

Risk assessment for lightning protection

Through the risk analysis, we determine the statistical probability of damage to your object due to lightning strikes.

Wind turbine lightning protection risk assessment

In this risk analysis specifically adapted to the conditions of wind turbines, we determine the statistical probability of damage caused by lightning strikes to your wind turbine.

3D modelling

We create a graphic representation of the outer shell of the object or installation to be protected in 3D CAD files.

Lightning protection concept

With the help of our special software, we create a complete system for external lightning protection for your object or installation.

Surge protection concept

Through an analysis of the electrical low-voltage or communication system, we compile a recommendation for you for surge protection.

Planning and simulation of earthing equipment and systems

Using special software, we simulate the step voltage in the event of lightning effects or short-circuit current interference.

Protected volume examination

When checking the protected volume of existing lightning protection systems, we determine whether your object or system is still completely within the protected volume.

Soil resistivity analysis and report

Data from the physical measurement is processed and a representative ground model based on theoretical curves is created using special software.

Advanced lightning protection simulation

With the use of special software, we simulate the lightning strike behaviour on and risk to your object or system.

Calculation and simulation of the high-voltage interference

Collected field data and a special simulation will be used to determine the status of AC interference along your pipeline and design solutions for them.
