A SINGLE LIGHTNING STRIKE
CAN COST MORE THAN
THE ENTIRE
PROTECTION SYSTEM
Rural properties, industries, and homes without proper SPDA are exposed to irreversible losses — cattle, machinery, electrical boards, and lives. And without the technical report, the insurance company has grounds to deny the claim.
THE CONSEQUENCES
OF UNPROTECTED LIGHTNING STRIKES
Livestock and Rural Machinery Destroyed
Rural producers can lose entire herds electrocuted in the pasture, or see irrigation pivots, milking machines, and tractors burned — halting production for weeks.
Factory Stopped by Indirect Discharge
Lightning does not need to hit the structure directly to burn PLCs, frequency inverters, and industrial automation boards. Electromagnetic induction travels through miles of wiring.
Fire in Hard-to-Reach Areas
In isolated rural properties and industrial warehouses, the fire department takes time to arrive. A lightning strike hitting wiring or the roof can turn into a catastrophic fire with no possible control.
Insurance Denies the Compensation
If the insurance inspector finds that the SPDA was absent, expired, or installed outside the NBR 5419 standard, the company has a legal basis to refuse payment — regardless of the policy amount.
NBR 5419 Risk Analysis
Technical calculation of the lightning strike risk for your specific structure, defining the required protection level (LPL I to IV) and the exact system scope.
Residential SPDA
Design and installation for homes on open grounds, country houses, and gated communities, protecting the family, electronic equipment, and internal wiring.
Rural SPDA — Agribusiness
Systems for farms with protection of warehouses, irrigation pivots, silos, corrals, and milking facilities — where lightning exposure is maximum and losses can be irreversible.
Industrial and Commercial SPDA
Protection of industrial plants, logistics warehouses, and substations with integrated SPD (Surge Protection Devices) to shield automation equipment and electrical boards.

SOME FREQUENT
QUESTIONS
Insurance only pays if you prove you adopted all the prevention measures required in the contract. If the insurance inspector finds that the SPDA was absent or outside the NBR 5419 standard, they have a legal basis to completely deny the claim payment — no matter how high the insured amount is.
The cost of an engineering-designed SPDA is a minimal fraction of the value of a burned cattle herd, irrigation pivot, or industrial automation panel. Our risk analysis designs exactly what your structure needs — without excesses or shortages.
A Franklin-type lightning rod installed without calculation may even attract the lightning strike but will not protect sensitive electronic equipment connected to the grid. A modern SPDA requires a calculated grounding grid, SPDs (Surge Protection Devices), and an ART signed by a licensed Engineer.
