Building protection

Commercial and industrial buildings

Why protect a commercial or industrial building from overvoltages?

Protecting buildings from overvoltages plays a crucial role in safeguarding electronic equipment and machinery, particularly in industrial environments where worker safety is a priority. By preventing failures in critical systems, such as safety systems and machinery controls, you not only protect your equipment investment, but also promote a safe working environment.

Furthermore, this measure is essential for avoiding unplanned service interruptions, maintaining operational efficiency and preventing financial losses. Likewise, overvoltage protection helps prevent structural damage, representing a long-term investment by avoiding costly damage in industrial environments with more complex systems, where overvoltages can cause significant damage.

What may be needed for our installation?

There are two different scenarios depending on whether or not a lightning rod system is installed.
