As evidenced during the current and past lightning seasons, the availability of effective lightning protection and earthing solutions for infrastructure and industry is of critical importance". This was noted by Ian McKechnie, MD of Innopro, specialist consultants and solution providers in industrial electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), earthing and lightning protection. With this in mind, speciality leader Innopro is presenting a half-day industry-briefing seminar on 'Best practices in lightning protection and earthing of structures and systems'. This seminar, to be held in conveniently-located Centurion (Gauteng) on 31 August 2004, will take the form of a morning seminar including a breakfast, and will end at 12h00 allowing delegates to still return to the workplace in the afternoon.
McKechnie noted that the briefing seminar is aimed at industry practitioners at all levels and will be beneficial to all persons involved in the design, management, insurance, risk assessment and/or maintenance of infrastructure and systems that can be affected or influenced by lightning and related electromagnetic interference. He added that a technical qualification is not a prerequisite for attendance or for gaining benefit from the seminar. He noted that limited space was available at the seminar and that pre-booking was essential. Registration forms are also available for downloading from the company website.
