Lightning protection case study: School - Measures to prevent fire alarms from being damaged by induced lightning.
Introducing a case where a design to comprehensively protect the campus with three large structures has been completed!
We would like to introduce a case where our products were installed at Kōka Gakuen, a prestigious Catholic school in Tokyo. The school was considering lightning protection measures due to incidents where lightning struck a nearby pine tree, causing the servers to fail to start. They decided to implement PDCE as a rational alternative to traditional lightning rods that assist in directing lightning strikes away. 【Case Overview】 ■ Witnessed numerous lightning strike incidents in my previous job ■ No time to waste on lightning protection in educational settings *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
