Ground Potential Rise

This is one of the more elusive problems to resolve and requires in depth knowledge of equipment, power and grounding systems to mitigate.

GPR or Ground Potential Rise causes severe electronic circuit board damage even when you have surge protection of the first order on your site.  This occurs normally during lightning strike or ground fault conditions and / or near power utility sub-stations.  Generally, someone has not done their recommended installation procedures on facilities.

We have the experience, expertise and tools to calculate your GPR potentials and guide you into identifying and resolving this serious problem.
