Lightning Arrester: A Complete Guide to Lightning Protection
Lightning is one of the strongest forces in nature and happens millions of times all over the world every year. Millions of strikes produce an enormous amount of electromagnetic energy (electricity) that causes equipment to be damaged when a lightning strike occurs on power lines, buildings, or electrical equipment and may create fire hazards. To prevent this hazard to electrical systems, engineers use a lightning arrester to protect the electrical infrastructure by providing a safe path to ground to dissipate lightning surges.
