The Role of CHEM Grounding Rod in Ensuring Lightning Safety

Grounding Rods do not prevent lightning from striking the structure, but rather intercept a lightning strike, provide a conductive path for the harmful electrical discharge to follow and disperse the energy safely into the ground. It's very important that these components be properly connected (bonded) to minimize the chances for any sparks or side flashes. At LEC, our grounding rods and lightning protection units follow the national safety standards and requirements of the Lightning Protection industry requirements.
