Compact knowledge for operators

Safe and punctual transport of people and goods

Equipment and systems must be reliable, because nobody wants to run the risk of lightning damaging or interrupting signalling and control systems. Only the seamless protection of, for example, level crossing safety systems or point heaters guarantees smooth operation.

And, as digitalisation progresses, the more important surge protection becomes.

A professional lightning and surge protection concept comprises an earthing system, external lightning protection and surge protective devices.

With a comprehensive protection concept, you can rest assured that you are

providing proper protection for travellers and employees
operating equipment and systems so that they are safe and highly available
fulfilling the requirements of laws, standards and regulations.
