There are a number
of key areas that are focused on when conducting a site
audit at a facility. We follow and work to a 6 point plan
that allows us to methodically audit your facility. It is
based on:
1. Conducting an initial risk assessment of the structural
facilities, and determining any need for Direct Strike
Protection.
2. Conducting an assessment of all incoming services and
determining any need for Surge protection devices to be
installed or upgraded
3. Conducting an assessment of local
earthing conditions, including Soil resistivity analysis,
and earth resistance measurement
4. Conducting an assessment of any
lightning safety issues
5. Compiling a Site Audit report,
including overall Risk Assessment, Determinations, and
Recommendations
6. Preparing Lightning Protection &
Earthing Designs, and providing remedial Cost Estimates
