ELECTRICAL GROUNDING AND LIGHTNING SYSTEM

ELECTRICAL GROUNDING AND LIGHTNING SYSTEM

Lightning is a natural phenomenon that may occur everywhere in the world. Failure to protect critical and strategic such as refinery, oil & gas plant, petrochemical plant process, building, etc can cause big lost in productivity and revenue generating. The big lost could be an inferno, heavy damage, and ruin of the plant and its critical equipment. It is even a fatality of electric or thermal shock to human body that could cause a death.

This training will be enhancing the participants to get better understanding of lightning phenomenon especially for people and Industry; better understanding of lightning behaviour, characteristic, and protection system; enhance knowledge of grounding system and all aspects; better knowledge of grounding system effect to damage of electrical installation if exposed to lightning hit; better knowledge of specification and assessment of lightning protection system
