Grounding Products

Traditional grounding methods and aged grounding systems can be ineffective in high stress situations such as a lightning event. LEC has engineered low-impedance grounding systems that provide effective grounding during high-intensity lightning strikes. All grounding is part of LEC’s Lightning Solutions line; Contact us for your Integrated Lightning Solution.

Ground Test Options

Ground systems can degrade over time; ground testing helps companies assess the integrity of the existing system and identify risk factors. LEC recommends Smart Ground tests be performed in conjunction with Consulting Surge Protection, and/or Lightning Protection.

Smart Ground Meter System

Smart Ground Testing utilizes a new type of grounding meter and data acquisition platform that collects the most precise information about the condition of the existing grounding system. Smart Ground is the next generation in testing and is able to provide accurate data, even while the facility is energized. Smart Ground is EPRI approved and is only available as a consulting service. Smart Ground can be used to test any facilities grounding system and is highly recommended for large or older facilities. Learn more about Smart Ground.

Traditional Ground Resistance Test Meters

These meters tend to be less precise then Smart Ground testing but they are also less expensive. They are recommended for small sites. Learn more about ground test meters.
