Consultancy and Design

System Advantages and Benefits

Our consultancy team provides independent studies, verification, and advice to ensure every lightning and earthing system is safe, compliant, and cost-effective, supported by advanced software tools.

• Design verification — Meticulous verification of existing designs and schematics to ensure they meet all required safety and operational standards.

• Lightning risk assessment — Comprehensive lightning risk assessments, strictly adhering to IEC 62305, NFPA 780, and national regulations, using tools such as DEHN Support Toolbox and CDEGS SES Shield.

• Cost-efficiency consultation — Advice on cost-efficiency, helping clients identify budget-friendly, standards-compliant materials and design options.

• On-site surveys — Exhaustive on-site surveys to identify potential non-conformities with international and national standards.

• Witnessing installation, commissioning, testing, and measurement — Witnessing installation and testing to standards such as IEEE 81, BS 7430, BS EN 50522, and IEC 62305, and issuing detailed reports on any defects.

• Interference, EMC, and transient studies — Interference studies for pipeline, telecom, and rail systems, along with high-frequency, EMC, and transient studies using EMTP-RV and CDEGS.

• Quantitative risk assessment — Quantitative risk assessments in line with ISO, BS EN, and CIGRE documents, to prevent unnecessary expenditure on earthing and lightning materials.

• Underground investigation services — Locating and mapping subterranean infrastructure such as earthing conductors, gas and water pipes, and other metallic objects to enable safe planning of new works.

Our design team develops complete lightning and earthing solutions tailored to each project, engineered to current IEC, IEEE, and national standards, balancing safety, reliability, and cost.

• Coordinated lightning protection design — Integrated air-termination, down conductor, and earthing layouts designed to comply with IEC 62305, IEC 61400-24, IEEE 998, and NFC 17-102, among other standards.

• Grounding design and verification — Design and checking of grounding systems to IEEE 80, EN 50522, IEC TS 62738, and related standards.

• Layouts and drawings — Detailed 2D and 3D CAD layouts and system blueprints for both external and internal protection systems.

Our Design Services Include

Consultancy and design is where every project begins. Our team sits down with you to understand the site, the risks, and how the building will actually be used, then turns that into a practical, buildable protection strategy.

ATLAS-accredited designers develop systems to EN 62305, UNE 1186, and NFC 17-102, balancing safety, reliability, and cost.
