We have become able to quickly and accurately grasp the occurrence of lightning! Here are some case studies.
At Energy Advance Co., Ltd., an energy service company, a "lightning detector" was installed to catch voltage drops caused by lightning in advance. However, this product only issued an alarm indicating that lightning had occurred, without providing information on the location or direction of the strike. Additionally, frequent false detections were problematic, and there were often instances where no lightning activity could be confirmed at all. Therefore, we introduced the lightning and weather information provision system 'Lightning Scope Plus.' Since implementing this product, we have been able to quickly and accurately grasp lightning occurrences. [Challenges Before Product Implementation] (Had installed a lightning detector) ■ No information on location or direction ■ Only an alarm indicating that lightning had occurred ■ Frequent false detections ■ Switching power multiple times due to inaccurate information incurs both effort and costs *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information
**Effects After Product Introduction** - The lightning detector remains installed and emits an alarm when detection occurs, allowing for a clear comparison of its high accuracy. - It can grasp the course and movement speed of lightning, which can be used to make decisions about disconnecting the power system. - Not only lightning, but also rainfall information and temperature from AMeDAS can be checked from a single monitor. - Weather advisories and warnings are also displayed, and during winter, the snow accumulation situation can be confirmed. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.*

Franklin Japan has been operating the Japan Lightning Detection Network (JLDN), the first and only nationwide lightning observation network in Japan, since October 1998. JLDN networks sensors installed across the country and utilizes accurate time information sent from GPS to observe the location, time, and current value of lightning strikes. The observation accuracy of JLDN boasts a capture rate of over 90% within its coverage area, with a location error of less than 500 meters, making it arguably the best lightning observation network in the world currently available. The observed lightning strike data is used in real-time for power management in factories, maintenance of networks, and protection of human life in outdoor sports.
