How often should a lightning protection system be inspected?
It is recommended that all Lightning Protection Systems be visually inspected at least once per year. In areas with severe climatic changes, semi-annual inspections may be advisable to ensure optimal functionality and safety. Additionally, after any significant weather events, such as storms or extreme temperature fluctuations, an extra inspection should be conducted.

Lightning protection systems should be tested by a specialist at least every 12 months, though testing every 11 months is recommended to account for seasonal variations. This approach builds a full picture of the earthing system. Trust Global Compliance, is dedicated to electrical safety and offering competitive pricing without compromising quality.
