Lightning protection case study: Detached house. The home was completely destroyed by lightning. A lightning rod was installed on the rebuilt home.
"Guiding lightning to the ground with a lightning rod" feels off. An example of installing a PDCE-baby in a rebuilt home.
We would like to introduce a case where a "dream home" was completely destroyed by lightning during a torrential downpour, and a new house was rebuilt over a year and a half, incorporating the "PDCE lightning rod." After the incident, the customer researched lightning protection measures on their own, but felt uncomfortable with the information found online, which mainly discussed methods of attracting lightning to the rod and grounding it. Continuing their research, they discovered our lightning suppression product and proceeded with the installation. They have shared, "It has been six years since the lightning strike, and we are living with peace of mind."
