Reliable and Cost Effective Lightning Protection
Lightning costs hundreds of millions of dollars in property damage each year.
It can strike anywhere, causing severe injuries and significant damage to equipment – even up to 80km from the point of impact.
You can’t prevent lightning, but you can prevent its destructive effects.
We offer complete lightning protection systems and installation (complying with AS/NZS1768), to help you protect your assets and your people.
Turnkey Lightning Protection & Installation Solutions

Installation, Testing and Commissioning
Our nVent ERICO-trained site services team are available 24/7 install System 2000 or System 3000 Lightning Protection systems at your property.
Earthing & Lightning Protection Audit
Safety and reliability is our primary objective
Earthing System Testing
Commissioning and routine testing of your earthing systems is critical to ensure it performs safely during earth fault conditions.
Working with partners, our earthing and lightning protection review includes:
✓ Touch, step and transferred voltage hazard measurements
✓ Determination of individual and overall earthing system impedance
✓ Determination of lightning protection earthing impedance and physical integrity
✓ Determination of earth potential rise (EPR) contours
✓ Soil resistivity testing
✓ Continuity of equipment earth connections
✓ Visual inspections
✓ Current distribution measurements
✓ Determination of earth grid conductor sizing suitability
✓ Assessment of switch-yard surfacing
Testing Methods Injection
The concept of injection testing is to simulate an earth fault at a smaller scale.
By injecting an off-frequency current into the earth grid, we can test the system while preventing any interference (including the 50 Hz system frequency and harmonics).
Importantly, our injection testing can be performed while the site is live with no interference to operation, allowing you to measure the following parameters during the test:
1. Earthing System Impedence
2. Touch, step and transferred voltages
3. Location of Earth Potential Rise (EPR) contours
4. Earth Grid Voltage Rise (EGVR)
We also offer:
Soil Resistivity Testing – to determine the soil’s impact on earth grid performance.
Fall of Potential Testing – to measure earthing resistance of lightning protection systems and small kiosk/pole mounted systems.
Continuity Testing – to check the connections of primary pieces of plant to the earth grid and identify defects which can’t be seen visually.
