Aplicaciones Tecnológicas, since it was founded, has maintained as a fundamental value the development of quality products for protection against lightning, that are responsible with the environment. For this reason, it has once again renewed its certificate of Environmental Management System, based on the UNE-EN ISO 14001: 2015 standard.
Lightning is a phenomenon that, despite being very common, is little known outside the specialized forums and creates uncertainty. It is important for people’s safety and to safeguard the equipment, that some key points are taken into account on what not to do in case of a storm:
Earthing systems, as well as their connections, must last for the lifetime of the building. Exothermic welding meets this objective better than mechanical connections or other types of welding. Aplicaciones Tecnológicas goes even further with Apliweld® Secure+, the exothermic welding system that provides perfect results, cost savings and increased worker safety.
Lightning bolts are static electricity discharges, with which their formation is impossible to avoid. However, we can take measures to protect and prevent workers against the risk of electric shock by direct lightning impact.
