Grounding Lightning Surge Protection

At AvCom, we understand that effective grounding and lightning protection are critical to the performance, longevity, and safety of wireless communication systems. As part of our comprehensive infrastructure services, we proudly offer high-performance Grounding and Lightning Protection solutions, featuring trusted products from Alltec Global, a worldwide leader in engineered solutions for grounding, bonding, and transient surge protection.

Description

Protect Your Wireless Infrastructure with AvCom and Alltec Global

At AvCom, we deliver specialised grounding and lightning protection solutions tailored for wireless communication systems. As a trusted provider of infrastructure for mission-critical networks, we’ve partnered with Alltec Global—a worldwide leader in lightning protection and grounding technologies—to offer industry-leading products that safeguard your equipment from electrical threats.

Our Core Offerings

Lightning Protection Systems

We design and install comprehensive lightning protection systems using Alltec’s TerraStat® Early Streamer Emission (ESE) Air Terminals. These advanced systems provide proactive protection by intercepting lightning strikes before they reach your infrastructure, directing energy safely to ground.

Grounding & Bonding Solutions

Effective grounding is essential for system stability and safety. AvCom provides engineered solutions using TerraDyne® Ground Electrodes, ground enhancement compounds, and exothermic welding kits, ensuring low-resistance, corrosion-resistant performance in all soil conditions.

🔌 Surge Protection Devices (SPDs)

Protect your radios, power systems, and data networks from damaging electrical surges. We supply and install Alltec’s high-performance AC, DC, data, and coaxial SPDs, tailored to the unique needs of wireless and telecom infrastructure.

Ground Enhancement Materials

When soil conditions pose a challenge, we use TerraFill®, a conductive, non-corrosive backfill material that improves grounding performance and system reliability—ideal for coastal or rocky environments.

Applications We Serve

  • Wireless Base Stations & Radio Towers
  • Microwave & Point-to-Point Links
  • Antenna Sites & Shelter Installations
  • Command Centres & Telecom Hubs
  • Remote Monitoring Systems

Surge Protection

avcom image

 

Building upon the grounding tier, Alltec’s second tier of protection comes from properly installed surge protection devices, which reduces and/or eliminates the magnitude of random, high energy, short-duration electrical power anomalies. These occurrences are typically caused by atmospheric phenomena (lightning strikes), utility switching, inductive loads, and internally generated transient voltages. The Alltec Protection Pyramid relies on PowerTrip surge suppression devices to meet the demands required for tier two protections.

 

 

 

 

Surge Protection Devices
