Preventing lightning damage in advance with a "lightning prevention mechanism" that differs from conventional lightning rods. Compliant with JIS A 4201/JIS Z 9290. *Case study collection available.
We are currently offering "manga" and "case materials" that introduce the benefits of the PDCE lightning ball! Please check them out from the <download> link. Conventional lightning rods attract lightning, which poses a risk of equipment failure due to lightning currents flowing through buildings. Our "PDCE lightning ball" is a lightning rod with a reverse-thinking mechanism designed to "avoid lightning strikes themselves." It gathers the same charge as lightning at the top of the lightning rod, preventing the generation of "welcoming discharges" that would attract lightning, thus avoiding strikes. 【Over 100 units used in the Tokyo Olympics - More than 4,000 units nationwide】 Used by major railways, highways, the Self-Defense Forces, chemical complexes, data centers, broadcasting stations, mobile base stations, renewable energy power plants, fire stations, disaster prevention facilities, outdoor sports facilities, golf courses, temples and shrines, schools, outdoor live venues, outdoor digital signage, condominiums, single-family homes, and more. 【Features of the PDCE lightning ball】 ■ Can be used as a "receiving part" under the Building Standards Act ■ Can be installed by replacing conventional pointed lightning rods with PDCE lightning balls ■ Domestic dedicated factory - Quick response to options based on needs ■ If damaged by a direct lightning strike, free replacement for up to 10 years from installation.

PDC E Lightning Rod vs. Standard Lightning Rod [PDC E News No. 6 May 2018 Announcement]
A field test was conducted over six years in Fukura Town, Aomori Prefecture, to investigate how much less likely PDCE lightning rods are to be struck by lightning compared to conventional lightning rods. The result was "11 to 0." The conventional lightning rod was struck by lightning 11 times and its tip melted, while the PDCE remained unscathed. Indoor discharge experiments according to French standards were conducted multiple times, confirming a clear difference, but this time the test was conducted on a mountain facing the Sea of Japan, where there are strong winter lightning strikes.
