Power surges, black-outs and lightning strikes are a common event, especially in northern Australia. Darwin, the 'Storm Capital of the Top End', is subjected annually to fierce storms and the subsequent power disruptions that can result.

Sensitive (and expensive) electronic and communications equipment is particularly prone to damage from power surges or lightning strikes. A direct lightning strike can wipe out a building's electronics in a micro-second.

Lightning and Surge protection devices should be regarded as an essential part of every organisation's asset protection and risk management strategies. Delivering the right solution for your particular situation requires expert advice, helping ensure that your organisation's sensitive equipment is "always on, always available" allowing you to keep operating and maintain profitability.

Delta Electrics are the recognised experts in Lightning and Surge Protection solutions for the Northern Territory. We design, supply, install and maintain a wide range of technologies from leading brands such as Lightning Protection International and Eaton.
