> AREAS OF APPLICATION > TELECOMMUNICATIONS Telecommunication towers and aerials are often placed at isolated locations where they stand out due to their height, which is why they are the preferred points for lightning to strike. They should provide an uninterrupted and efficient service. In the case of facilities without a staff presence, the cost and time needed for repairs may significantly increase. Protection against the direct impact of lightning and overvoltages prevents equipment damage and service interruptions, thus reducing maintenance costs. TECHNOLOGIES FOR LIGHTNING PROTECTION
