Design, Supply, and Installation of Lightning Protection System and Surge Protection Device for ICTSI Subic Port Gantry Crane and Administration Offices.

The picture above shows the newly installed Ellips LPS at the ICTSI gantry crane.

In 2012, ICTSI initiated a project in order to protect their gantry cranes and adjacent administration offices. This was due to an incident when lightning struck their gantry crane and damaged its electronics and thus, halting their operations.

Given that this was a laterally moving crane, part of the challenge was how to connect the Lightning Arrester Terminal to the grounding. All suppliers were tasked to submit their own design and methodology in installing the lightning protection system.

Given this, LCDC devised a plan that would include the movement of the crane to the design of the Lightning Protection System. The project was then awarded to LCDC and was completed in 2012.

As part of the design, the whole port was totally protected with the installation of 6 units Ellips Lightning Protection System and 12 units of TVSS to be located in various circuit breakers.

The total cost of the project is 4 million Php.
