Lightning Protection for Oil and Gas Facilities
Electronic VSDs are extensively utilized by the mining, oil, and gas industries for the speed control of electric motors. Modern VSDs are becoming ever more sensitive to surges and transient currents. Together, VFC and Lyncole provide on-site, detailed lightning hazard risk assessments where our engineers gather all necessary data, make necessary observations, run soil tests, and interview appropriate on-site personnel to fully complete the risk mitigation and safety planning assessment.
