Are you wondering if Lightning Protection is mandatory in the UK? We’re here to clear up the confusion. Contrary to popular belief, it is not a legal requirement unless identified as a risk during a Lightning Protection Survey conducted for your property.

Determining the necessity of Lightning Protection depends on various factors, such as the likelihood of your building being struck by lightning and the requirements set by your insurance provider.

The process involves installing lightning rods at the top of your building, potentially multiple rods depending on its size. These rods are connected to a high voltage cable that runs along the outer wall and connects to a ground rod buried beneath the ground.

In the event of a lightning strike, the voltage from the shock is safely directed through the rods, guiding it down to the ground.

To ensure the ongoing safety of your property, it is advisable to conduct a comprehensive assessment every 11 months. This assessment covers various weather conditions throughout the year.

During the Lightning Protection Survey, your building’s vulnerability to lightning is thoroughly evaluated, comparing it to other structures.
