Best Surge Arrestors For Lightning?

Surge Arrestors For Lightning

Best Surge Arrestors – What are the Best?

Surge Arrestors For Lightning Defence – What is the best surge arrester specification for defence against lightning strike?

A: Defence against lightning needs to incorporate surge arresters, devices that filter out big voltage and current spikes, as well as keeping strong frequencies at bay. Talk to suppliers about best specifications for use in your area.

You should be looking for devices that give isolation primary to secondary sides, have performance that’s at least 125 per cent of full load capacity. You also want high-speed, leading-edge suppression and a high-energy resistance metal oxide resistor, plus or minus 1 per cent output volts at 85 per cent load with -25 per cent to 15 per cent of nominal input volts.

Best Surge Arrestors
Best Surge Arrestors For Lightning? 9

In addition, you’d need a voltage change on load change of plus or minus 3 per cent for 3 cycles and 95 per cent correction for 2 cycles. Your surge arrestors shouldn’t just be looking after the transformer’s secondary side – add arrestors to the secondary side of sensor wiring as well.

It goes without saying that you should avoid all external wiring and you should bond your system by making physical connection of any walled conduits to system ground. It’s also important to ground the main transformer to a grounding roof or copper earth tape and connection using insulated wire – use a big gauge.

When you are protecting devices located outside requirements vary depending on whether equipment is pole mounted or building mounted. Buildings are different to remote pole mounts, which would need to be grounded independently, with devices like control boxes, comms gear, or cameras grounded to grounded poles.

A remote pole would typically be fitted with a low resistance path to ground via a lightning rod, fat cable and buried metal matrix. All sounds a bit excessive until $A20,000-plus worth of controllers, transmitters and devices get fried by a direct lightning strike.

Devices attached to buildings should be grounded to the building’s external lightning protection system if possible. If a device is not within the protected volume, then you need an air termination rod installed at the mounting pole with cabling installed inside the metal pole.

If in-pole cabling is impossible, then cable needs to be run in a metal conduit that’s electrically connected to the pole. Whether or not you need surge protectors in the cable run depends on cable length – none if the run is only a couple of metres, some if cabling is longer.

There should also be lightening equipotential bonding at the entry point for cabling as it goes from the junction box on the pole into the building. If buildings have no external lightning protection, it’s possible the lightning risk is very low and can be mitigated by installing surge protectors between the junction box and camera.

Alternatively, when creating lightning protection for external devices, buildings may need to be professionally grounded. You can learn more about forensic examination of lightning strikes for insurance purposes here – there’s more news from SEN here.

Free ANPR From CS Technologies Replaces Standalone Automatic Number Plate Recognition System.

Free ANPR From CS Technologies Replaces Standalone Automatic Number Plate Recognition System.

Free ANPR From CS Technologies – According to CS Technologies customers wanting ANPR have needed to purchase and install an independent ANPR System and camera/s, as well as an access control system.

“Now Australian-made access control brand, CS Technologies, is offering an ANPR add-on solution for free, saving installers and their customers time and money,” says Michael Carruthers, head of engineering at CS Technologies.

“The installer purchases a Milesight LPR camera then links the LPR camera to a CS Technologies’ Evolution access control system. From there, authorised user vehicles can be granted access to the facility with no independent ANPR System is required.”

The way it works is that CS Technologies’ free Evolution management software has a free built-in, high-level interface that connects directly to Milesight LPR cameras. When a number plate is read, Evolution software will process the plate, check the user database, check the user’s access group and grant/deny the user.

“CS Technologies Evolution Controllers are proven commercial solution access systems that grant access to the facility with a pin number, card or RF remote,” Carruthers says.

“Existing users can now additionally be assigned a car number plate to complement the standard access system. CS Technologies Evolution already has free integrations with most popular caravan park programs to further simplify the setup.”

CS Technologies’ free Evolution management software includes all features and is installed as a Windows-based EXE that can be run from a drive, USB, cloud drive, or virtual server. Featuring an easy setup, Evolution can generate automatic email reports and alarms, deny pass-backs, generate history reports, and create interactive floor plans. Evolution also allows integrations with high level CCTV and other third-party systems.

“While Evolution controllers don’t provide a commercial car park payment solution, their capabilities make them terrific for many other purposes such as caravan parks and other facilities with non-paid entry,” Carruthers says.

New Government Procurement Rules To Favour SMEs

New Government Procurement Rules To Favour SMEs As New Targets Set By Federal Government.

New Government Procurement Rules To Favour SMEs – Australia’s federal government has set new targets designed to ensure smaller businesses get a better chance of delivering systems and services to government departments.

The changes double the contract threshold for government departments to go director to small business to $A500,000, while procurements requiring an economic benefits assessment will go from $4 million to $1 million.

The reduction in economic benefit assessment analysis from $4 million to A$1 million means smaller deals can elevate the benefits of supporting smaller, local suppliers.

The changes come into effect on July 1 and they include the implementation of a new Commonwealth Supplier Code of Conduct will also come into effect from July, imposing an expectation that suppliers act ethically. A deep dive into this code of ethics is interesting, given the open-ended nature of its requirements.

The changes will also impact on government panel buying which has allowed departments to set up a services panel then claim a fair tender process has been undertaken if they approach 1 supplier on the panel because the creation of the original was a tender process. Government buyers will now be required to approach at least 1 SME for every request for quote.

As part of the changes around exclusive panel buying, 5 per cent of agencies’ spending on services through the MAS and People Panels may be sourced directly to First Nations businesses not on those panels through a new flexibility allowance.

The government has set a target to source 25 per cent of procurements below $1 billion, and 40 per cent of procurements below $20 million, from small and medium business. The previous target of 20 per cent overall procurement was being met according to government but was skewed by large multinationals with ABNs categorising division as Australian SMEs.

“To say you’re an Australian business if you have an ABN, to me, seems quite ridiculous, – that means Microsoft, Boeing and Fujitsu,” said Independent Senator David Pocock during Senate Estimates last month.
