Frequently asked questions

Which standard do you follow?

SS 555, Singapore’s code of practice for lightning protection.

Can you test an existing system someone else installed?

Yes. We test it, report faults, and repair them if you want.

Do you install surge protection too?

Yes. Lightning protection on the roof and surge protection on the switchboards go together.

How much does it cost?

Every building is different, so we survey the site and the existing setup first, then give a fixed quotation.
