Descripción general

ETAP’s Lightning Risk Assessment (LRA) module assesses the risk of a lightning strike, probability of damage, and associated economic losses in compliance with international standards.

Lightning is the number one cause of power surges, leading to severe safety hazards for people as well as structural damage and fires. Lightning Risk Assessment (LRA) is the evaluation of the risk of a lightning strike on or near structures. Perform ETAP Lightning Risk Assessment to recommend lightning protection systems for the protection of life and property while considering the continuity of operation and system reliability.
