Beyond routine inspection, our team carries out detailed technical testing to verify your system performs safely under real fault conditions, not just that it's physically intact.
Step- and touch-potential testing — Testing carried out where required, making sure anyone on site can move around safely during a fault.
Current-injection testing — Testing on critical paths to prove the overall effectiveness of the protection system, not just individual components.
Impedance and loop testing — Testing on key circuits to support fast, accurate fault detection and disconnection.
Preventative maintenance and corrective action — Agreed corrective actions to fix issues early and help extend the working life of your protection system.

System Advantages and Benefits
Our engineers get hands-on with your system, carrying out routine inspections and performance tests to catch problems early and keep your protection system compliant and ready to perform.
Routine inspections and compliance checks — Routine inspections of your lightning protection and earthing systems in line with EN 62305, so you stay compliant and up to date with current standards.
Continuity and resistance testing — Checking that conductors, joints, and electrodes are performing properly across the whole system.
Fall-of-potential and soil resistivity testing — Understanding how the ground is behaving and assessing the real condition of each earth electrode.
Our Design Services Include
Looking after your lightning protection and earthing systems is not a once-and-done task. They need regular check-ups so they stay safe, compliant, and ready to do their job when a fault or strike happens.
ATLAS-accredited designers develop systems to EN 62305, UNE 1186, and NFC 17-102, balancing safety, reliability, and cost.
Our Testing & Maintenance Standards
Extended system lifespan — Regular maintenance catches wear and corrosion before they become failures.
Guaranteed compliance — Ongoing testing keeps your system aligned with EN 62305 and current standards.
Reduced downtime risk — Issues are identified and corrected before they cause an outage.
Verified real-world performance — Testing proves the system works as a whole, not just component-by-component.
