Assessment Results
This interactive assessment tool provides a basic way to evaluate your lightning protection system after a suspected strike. However, it comes with important limitations:
- This is not a replacement for professional inspection – it only helps you determine if you need urgent professional help
- The tool doesn’t connect to your actual system – it relies on your visual observations and system knowledge
- It can’t detect hidden damage that might be present in your system
For a more comprehensive solution, you would need:
- A professional inspection using specialized equipment like earth resistance testers
- Lightning strike counters installed on your system that can be checked after storms
- Regular maintenance inspection records to compare against post-strike conditions
