INNOVATE & EDUCATION<br />
The Lightning Innovation and Research Institute is an integrated department of <strong>INDELEC</strong>,<br />
100% dedicated to innovation. This forward-looking research team of highly skilled engineers<br />
provides <strong>INDELEC</strong> with undisputed R&D abilities and both internal and external training<br />
capabilities on lightning protection management and safety equipment installation.<br />
High voltage laboratory<br />
The Lightning Innovation and Research Institute LiRi operates<br />
a unique equipment: the 1.6 million volts High Voltage Laboratory<br />
generates giant electrical arcing of several metres in a highly-secured<br />
environment. The lightning conductors triggering times in<br />
micro-seconds are recorded and compared to a reference single rod<br />
air terminal. The gain measured qualifi es the air terminal performance<br />
and its compliance to the French and international standards.<br />
Scientific research key player<br />
Besides its future technologies engineering and<br />
development projects, the Lightning Innovation and Research Institute LiRi<br />
is a key player of the international lightning scientific community. The LiRI<br />
scientists regularly release innovative articles during major lightning International<br />
Conferences, especially on real lightning test campaign fi ndings, another<br />
<strong>INDELEC</strong> Group unique approach since 1993.<br />
Educational programs<br />
To address the complexity of the lightning phenomenon, the LiRI has built several training<br />
and certification programs. It ranges from the educational program for general public to highly<br />
technical engineering courses for construction experts. The Lightning Innovation and Research<br />
Institute LiRi is also involved in French, European and international standard committees, sharing<br />
its expertise to keep on improving lightning protection systems safety and performances.<br />

HISTORY<br />
More than 60 years<br />
of experience<br />
<strong>INDELEC</strong> is a family-owned group<br />
of performance-driven SME, dedicated<br />
to lightning risk management as well as<br />
safety at height.<br />
In-telligence<br />
by Indelec<br />
Since 1955, the Group has maintained<br />
its production process in France and<br />
built up a network of regional subsidiaries<br />
offering a complete range of products and<br />
services.<br />
French and international<br />
development<br />
<strong>INDELEC</strong> also expanded quickly on Export markets:<br />
75% of the equipment it manufactures is exported to<br />
qualifi ed partners in more than 80 countries. <strong>INDELEC</strong><br />
Group holds leading market positions in France and abroad.<br />
Its 200 passionate employees are mobilized to deliver<br />
cost effective high quality solutions to its clients,<br />
whatever is the projects’ complexity.<br />

CONTINUOUS IN-SERVICE<br />
TRAINING<br />
Lightning is an extremely complex<br />
and potentially harmful phenomenon.<br />
Lightning risk management and<br />
Safety at Height businesses do not<br />
leave any room for improvisation.<br />
Technicians and engineers are<br />
continuously trained to upgrade<br />
their capability to customize<br />
lightning protection systems to<br />
the client’s requirements as well<br />
as their on-site installation skills.<br />
This quest for excellence to exceed<br />
customer expectations is based<br />
on the Lightning Innovation and<br />
Research Institute training programs<br />
as well as the continuous quality and<br />
safety improvement processes.<br />
HISTORICAL EXPERTISE<br />
TO GUARANTEE<br />
100% RELIABILITY<br />
Lightning solutions developed and<br />
manufactured by <strong>INDELEC</strong> are designed to<br />
withstand the worst environmental and climatic<br />
conditions. From 1998 to 2000, in Japan,<br />
scientists have recorded lightning discharges of<br />
240,000 amperes on a Prevectron air terminal,<br />
ie. power usage of a 30,000 inhabitants city !<br />
Such challenging conditions require<br />
permanent product quality improvement<br />
processes: components, design, manufacturing<br />
process or on-site installation are<br />
under permanent review to guarantee reliable<br />
and performing lightning protection solutions.<br />

INNOVATION IS INSTRUMENTAL<br />
<strong>INDELEC</strong> DEVELOPMENT<br />
Innovation is part of <strong>INDELEC</strong> DNA: specialized since 1955 in<br />
manufacturing and installing lightning protection systems, the company<br />
introduced in the early 80’s a revolutionary technology: the Early<br />
Streamer Emission Prevectron® air terminals. It became the main<br />
lightning protection technology alongside the common “Meshed Cages”<br />
design. <strong>INDELEC</strong> fi les several patent applications every year and it is now<br />
pioneering the integration of new communication<br />
technologies into lightning protection systems.<br />
UNIQUE IN SITU<br />
LIGHTNING TEST CAMPAIGNS<br />
In-novation<br />
by Indelec<br />
Thanks to this ongoing research process, <strong>INDELEC</strong> has<br />
developed the most reliable and safest range of lightning air<br />
terminals. Besides its unique High Voltage Laboratory,<br />
<strong>INDELEC</strong> has been heavily investing into real lightning<br />
test campaigns since 1993. Following campaigns in Florida,<br />
Japan, or Brazil, the Lightning Innovation and Research Institute<br />
LiRi team have set up a new test site in Indonesia, a major<br />
lighting prone area in the world. Each and every <strong>INDELEC</strong><br />
product development benefi ts from these research equipment<br />
and in situ validation, for optimum performance.<br />
06
FULLY CERTIFIED<br />
PRODUCTS<br />
The full range of products is certified either by independent third<br />
party auditor : Bureau Veritas for the Quality Certifi cate ISO 9001 and<br />
the lightning air terminals tests in compliance with the NF C 17 102 : 2011<br />
Annex C. These review and certifi cation processes guarantee the quality<br />
of the manufacture and installation of <strong>INDELEC</strong> Lightning Protection<br />
Systems as well as their full compliance to standard requirements.<br />
The products have also been tested in several other countries : European<br />
marking CE, USA (UL), Russia (RTN), India (CPRI), Indonesia (ITB),<br />
South Korea (KERI) etc…<br />

QUALIFIED<br />
EXPERTS<br />
State of the art installation by qualifi ed experts is required to achieve highest<br />
levels of performance and safety. Depending on the site requirements (limited<br />
access, chemical, nuclear, electrical risks…), each step of the project is<br />
supervised by skilled engineers and technicians following regularly<br />
audited and certified processes (ISO 9001, MASE, Qualifoudre,<br />
Qualifelec, Qualibat…)<br />

RISK ASSESSMENT<br />
AND TECHNICAL SURVEY<br />
According to the site location, specifi cations and dimensions, the Risk<br />
Assessment evaluates the required protection level.<br />
Based on the Risk Assessment calculations and conclusions, a qualifi ed<br />
engineer conducts a Technical Survey that defi nes the protection<br />
measures – direct and indirect protection systems, equipotential<br />
bondings, etc - and the lightning protection system types and locations.<br />
The survey also details the commissioning and maintenance requirements.<br />

INSTALLATION<br />
<strong>INDELEC</strong> Group is the major French installation<br />
services network with eight subsidiaries.<br />
Our technicians are frequently following training programs for<br />
safety at height, electrical qualifi cations, and authorizations for<br />
driving handling equipment or excavators. They are qualifi ed<br />
to operate in hazardous areas as well as nuclear sites.<br />
