Stephen is the man responsible for getting me completely hooked on tracking lightning strikes around the world!
Stephen’s curiosity and perseverance during the covid lockdown led him on journey in his career that saw him become the marine industry’s expert in lightning strike protection
This simple and reliable technology is now being adopted across many vessels thanks to Stephen’s work.
This technology works by operating as a passive sensor system that provides permanent protection by balancing and deionising the effects of atmospheric phenomena using one or more compensators. By stabilising the existing electric field in its environment, it creates a ‘shield’ that cancels the formation of the ascending tracer by draining the electric charges to the earth or surrounding water in harmless milliamperes. This eliminates the formation of lightning within the protected area.
Fascinating!
