When the power goes out at a hospital, the generator has seconds to pick up the load.

The risk people miss is that the same storm that dropped the utility feed can also put a surge through the transfer switch and generator controls. Emergency power fails at the moment it is needed most.

Proper surge protection at the service entrance and the branch panels is what prevents it. All South has completed 16 hospital projects across Florida.

Florida's hurricane season peaks in September, and a hospital does not get to pause during it.

Emergency power, transfer equipment, imaging, and life-safety systems all depend on a lightning protection and surge scheme that has been verified recently rather than assumed.

All South Lightning Protection inspects and upgrades certified systems for Florida healthcare facilities. Contact our team to schedule before peak season.

Florida records more lightning activity than any other state in the continental U.S., and most of the damage homeowners see is not from a direct hit.

Side flash, ground current, and surge arriving through utility service account for a large share of real losses. That is why a complete system pairs air terminals and conductors with bonding and surge protection at the service entrance.

NFPA 780 has been revised several times over the years, so an older residential system can be intact and still fall short of the current standard.

The common gaps are predictable: grounding electrodes that no longer meet requirements, missing bonding to metal systems, damaged or disconnected conductors, and no surge protection at the service entrance.

All South Lightning Protection inspects existing residential systems and provides a clear upgrade path where one is needed. Contact our team to arrange an inspection.

When a certified residential system takes a strike, the energy goes where the designer intended: into the air terminals, down the conductors, and into the grounding electrodes.

What it does not do is find its own path through the roof structure, the wiring, or the plumbing. That difference is the whole point of an NFPA 780 design, and it is why bonding and surge protection are part of the system rather than add-ons.

September is the peak of Florida's storm season. A lightning protection system should be inspected before it, not after.

An inspection confirms grounding integrity, verifies surge protective devices are still functional, and checks that bonding has not been compromised by roof work or equipment changes since the last review.

All South Lightning Protection performs pre-season inspections, testing, and upgrades for healthcare facilities across Florida. Contact our team to get on the schedule.

Lightning does not have to hit your building to affect it. Strike energy travels through electrical service, data lines, and bonded metal, which is why equipment can fail when the strike lands blocks away.

That is the reason a protected facility is designed as a whole path: air terminals and down conductors for the direct hit, bonding and surge protection for everything that arrives through the wires.

All South Lightning Protection works with Florida healthcare facilities to keep that path intact. Contact our team to schedule an inspection.

A hospital's lightning protection system is a compliance asset as much as a safety one. NFPA 780 and UL 96A are the standards inspectors, insurers, and risk managers look for.

A strike that reaches the electrical system can take down imaging equipment, corrupt records, and interrupt patient care. Air terminals, down conductors, bonding, and surge protection have to work as one system.

After a strike, the first question is always the same: what actually got hit?

Sometimes it is obvious. More often the damage is a blown surge device, a burned bond, a conductor that took the hit and needs replacing before the next storm. The system may have done its job perfectly and still need service before it can do it again.

We keep lift equipment and crews staged across Florida for exactly this. Fast assessment, documented repair, system back to full NFPA 780 compliance.

Most of a lightning protection system is the part nobody ever sees.

Air terminals get the attention, but they only catch the strike. What actually decides whether that energy leaves the building safely is everything below grade — the ground ring, the rods, the bonding back to the electrical service. Get that wrong and the current goes looking for another way down, usually through something expensive.

This is a ground ring going in on a commercial property. Trenched, bonded, tested, documented to NFPA 780. It is the least photogenic part of the job and the part that carries the whole system.
