Lightning Protection System (LPS)
A lightning protection system is designed to protect a structure from damage due to lightning strikes by intercepting such strikes and safely passing their extremely high currents to the ground. A lightning protection system includes a network of air terminals, bonding conductors, and ground electrodes designed to provide a low-impedance path to the ground for potential strikes.
OPR Range- Lightning Equipment
In an ongoing collaboration with its Research Center lab, ABB continues to innovate and has developed a new generation of lightning devices. The new OPR (Optimized Pulse Rod) range with increased initiation advance performances, represents further progress in terms of protection, operating autonomy, and ease of maintenance. These advancements reinforce ABB’s position as an international leader in direct lightning protection.
The advantage of initiation advance
The OPR lightning conductor is highly effective because it possesses a unique benefit: it initiates a process early. Typically, lightning creates a “leader” that extends upward from the earth to the clouds. However, OPR is quicker! The OPR finds its leader even before that natural one emerges. This leader in OPR rises swiftly. It records or “captures” the lightning strike. After that, it directs the lightning to land securely.
Validated in a laboratory, this gain in time relative to the simple rod provides additional essential protection.
Complete autonomy
During a storm, the ambient electric field may rise to between 10 to 20 kV/m. As soon as the field exceeds a threshold representing the minimum risk of a lightning strike, the OPR lightning terminal is activated. It draws its energy from the ambient electric field the energy required to generate high voltage pulses, creating and propagating an upward leader. No other power sources are required, and no radioactive components are used.
Proven efficiency
ABB has a proven commitment to research and development and continuously sets new benchmarks for the efficiency of lightning conductors.
