How many times is your building hit by lightning every year? A Lightning Strike Counter will give you the exact count. It is specially designed to record the number of lightning strike events and help you identify if your system requires any maintenance. In this blog, we will deep dive …
Earthing is defined as “the method of sending charges directly to the ground through low resistance wire to cause an immediate discharge of electrical energy.” The least resistant channel for fault current leaking is chosen, which calls for a low-resistance earthing cable. Leakage of current from electric appliances is the …
Where do Netflix & Amazon Prime store the thousands of Movies & TV Shows they stream on their websites and apps? They don’t keep all these terabytes of data on your computer or your phone. They keep them in Data Centres – massive buildings with thousands of racks of servers …
The importance of the lightning protection system for any building cannot be overstated. Lightning protection systems are essential to protect buildings from lightning strikes and the damages caused to the structure, the internal system, and the people inside. To design an effective system for complete protection we need to first …
Earthing connects all the major electrical equipment in our house such as fridge, AC, washing machine, grinder to the ground. So when there is an event of a power surge or lightning strike the extra current formed in the system is easily drawn down to the earth, protecting them from …
An Earth Mat is a mesh formed of bare metallic conductors and buried in shallow soil to provide better safety from touch and step potential. Earth mats are a part of the grounding system implemented in substations, production plants, industrial areas, etc., where high power handling occurs. More efficient grounding …
Electrical circuits are involved with an adequate amount of energy to cause electric shock hazards in case of a fault. A fault can occur due to power surges, leakages due to faulty equipment, lightning strikes hitting directly or indirectly and so on. So it is necessary to focus on the …
A lightning conductor is a thick copper wire or rod fixed onto the tallest point of a building and connected to the ground using a long metallic rod. It protects the building from lightning strikes by providing a low resistance path for the current to flow to the earth rather …
Earthing and bonding are two technical terms we come across when we deal with the safety aspect of an electrical system. We have all heard about earthing that is done for safety purposes during the electrical installation, but do we give much thought when it comes to electrical bonding. Both …
Exothermic welding, also known as exothermic bonding, thermite welding (TW), and thermit welding, is a welding technique that permanently joins conductors using molten metal. An exothermic reaction of a thermite composition heats the metal, and no external source of heat or current is required. An aluminothermic reaction between aluminium powder …
