Lightning protection case study: Fireworks festival - To safely welcome and send off 700,000 people.
Avoid with the new system! Instead of protecting the entire park, establish lightning protection areas at key points.
We would like to introduce a case where the "PDCE Lightning Protection Ball" was implemented in the lightning protection system for a fireworks festival. During the previous festival, the weather changed suddenly four hours before the launch, resulting in a thunderstorm. Experts analyzed the latest weather data and confirmed that there was no risk of lightning at the launch time, allowing the event to proceed. However, this year, we prepared for the worst-case scenario with a new lightning protection system. Our product, equipped with features that prevent lightning strikes, has already protected 4,100 installations across the country, including the Self-Defense Forces, railways, factories, and outdoor sports facilities. 【Features】 - No power supply required as it utilizes charges induced in the ground - No maintenance costs, such as for replenishing salts - Durable stainless steel construction - Reliable Japanese-made product with a 10-year warranty *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
