Every year, lightning and associated damages to telecommunications & ICT infrastructures run into billions of US dollars besides the loss of revenue, inactivity and production losses from industrial and business downtime.
Lightning, Voltage Surges and improper Earthing are major power quality problems in telecoms & ICT facilities.
Without warning lightning and electrical surges can devastate your state-of-the-art telephone system, communication equipment, computer networks or any electronic equipment.
Crippling your ability to communicate and transmit information. This shuts down businesses translating to expensive repairs and costly business interruptions.
With 140-180 thunderstorm days per annum in West Africa, about the highest in world. All telecoms and electronic equipment are at risk of direct Lightning strikes and Surges.
Strikes from tower antennas, conducted via power, data, RF and telephone cables entering buildings and facilities. Induced transient over- voltages (surge) originating from nearby strikes are injected into facilities by inductive and capacitive coupling.
Main AC power, ground fault currents. Noise and electrical interference caused by improper grounding/earthing practices.
Shared systems whose individual grounding systems may conflict with each other thus producing a degraded signal quality or costly service interruptions are all part of the hazards.
With decades and diverse hands on experience and expertise in Structural (direct) Lightning & surge protection, bonding, earthing / grounding across all sectors.
