Why should I install a lightning arrestor?

Are you unsure if a lightning arrestor is right for your property? It can be hard to determine what type of lightning arrestor is right for your property without an electrician's expertise.


MINIMIZING DAMAGE TO PROPERTY

A lightning stopper installed at the exterior of a building will prevent damage from lightning or similar discharges. If your property is exposed to lightning frequently due to location, materials or other factors, this can help you save a lot of money. This can protect you from secondary damage such as strikes on nearby trees that cause branches to fall.

PREVENT DAMAGE TO LINES

A lightning arrestor can prevent damage from outside wires and cables. A lightning arrestor is a great money-saver. It's much cheaper than the damage to your property's wiring. You will see a significant improvement in safety if you have a lightning arrestor installed on exposed wiring. While a lightning strike is unlikely to enter your building under any circumstances, it could cause serious damage to wires.

AVOIDING OUTLET SURGES

The smaller lightning arrestors can serve a different purpose within a building. They can be used to reduce the surges at an outlet. They can be as simple as a power strip or more complex pieces of electrical equipment. It can be hard to determine the right fit for you, but any of these devices, when installed correctly will protect your occupants from natural and artificial surges.

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE

A lot of general surge arresters and electrical filtering devices that are used in homes have small-scale lightning arrester systems. These structures can be combined with more advanced features. This will help to remove 'dirty power' and ensure that your lines work as intended, even in the event of storms or other electromagnetic sources. If you are interested in EMI filtration, talk to a qualified electrician about the best way to solve the problem.

EASY USE

A basic lightning arrestor is typically easier to install than other solutions to dealing with interference, surges, and natural electrical phenomena. An electrician can install a lightning arrestor quickly and easily, so you can reap the benefits as soon as possible.
