Lightning Protection

The Prevectron system by National Lightning Protection Corporation is a laboratory-tested lighting protection system designed for public buildings such as stadiums, schools and university facilities. The Prevectron’s lower electrodes collect energy from a naturally occurring ambient electrical field, storing it in capacitors. Prior to a lightning strike the atmospheric electrical field increases rapidly, activating a patented triggering device. The trigger releases the stored energy through the upper electrodes at the tip of the air terminal and initiates an upward leader at the optimum moment. This action helps direct the lightning strike safely to the ground through the central rod. The Prevectron requires minimal to no roof penetrations and comes with a 5-year full replacement warranty.
