Our Expertise

With more than 100-man years of industry experience, including research and testing, GLTM employs an engineered approach when working with customers on lightning protection applications, ranging from small installations to all other specific industrial projects anywhere in Malaysia. Our team of design and engineering specialists is here to help you build a reliable, comprehensive electrical grounding system.

We take an agnostic approach to lightning protection to help customers identify the right solution for their needs. Our team of skilled engineers offers all technical support. GLTM is primarily focused on providing lightning protection products and services to the local industries. We are capable of providing an engineering-based solutions which include:

Structure Lightning Protection and Earthing Systems

LPSD Software is nVent ERICO’s proprietary computer-aided design package that is used to design custom protection for structures based on statistical parameters. It optimizes the location of air terminals on a site-by-site basis to provide the most effective lightning protection coverage. The LPSD Lightning Protection Software Designer enables ERICO engineers to provide the best possible design to various lightning protection standards around the world.

Lightning risk assessment calculation reports

Lightning Risk assessment Study is actually the measure of risk of a lightning strike and probability of damages. It assesses the lightning risks to the facility according to international standards requirements. Hence calculations are according to IEC Standard 62305-2.

Soil Resistivity Study

A comprehensive soil resistivity survey is key to creating an effective earthing system; as opposed to inadequate or erroneous soil resistivity readings, which are likely to result in a flawed design. Soil resistivity testing is the process of measuring a volume of soil to determine the conductivity of the soil. Soil resistivity testing is the single most critical factor in electrical grounding design. Every Grounding Application is Unique. We Make Safe, Reliable, Quality Solutions to Meet Your Needs. We have the experts and experience and select the ideal grounding and bonding solution for your application require. GLT site surveys take multiple accurate soil resistivity readings at various depths across the site. As these results form the basis of the whole earthing design, the experience of engineers is critical in ensuring the correct implementation of the test data.

Analysis & Earthing Design

GLT can produce detailed earth electrode and lightning protection system designs. These are created through the use of the latest computer-aided design and modelling software (CDEGS) and comply with recognised standards. Designs are also created to any complexity requirement or budgetary need. State-of-the-art software is used for full earthing analysis to determine step and touch voltages, potential rise and hot/cold classification of the site.

Surge Protection Products To Suit Any Application

Power protection products ranging from main switchboard direct lightning current protection, to 3 stage protection filters for sensitive loads, and everything in between. Signal protection products for PLC, control systems, rail applications, data networks, communications, RF coaxial, and more

Engineering

GLTM’s will recommending leading optimization strategies for each individual design project. Providing cost benefit analysis between non-optimized and optimized designs. Presenting total project budgetary capital and installation cost estimates.

Borehole Earthing Solution

GLTM’s able to provide a borehole earthing solution services. We can solve your space limitation for earthing and improves grounding effectiveness, especially in areas of poor conductivity such as rocky ground, mountain tops and sandy soil.

Project Management & Installation

Our installation team is as diverse as the strength & experience we offer, enabling us to provide installers, site supervisors, field engineers, quality professionals and more for any project. We believe that project controls are the backbone of any successful project. We’ll remain in constant communication and provide real time project status updates to ensure every project is delivered on time and within budget.

Earth Resistance Measurement

Earth resistance measurement is essential to accurately determine that the installed earthing system meets the criteria from initial design. GLT technicians ensure all measurements are correctly taken and interpreted so that the true resistance of the earthing system can be accurately determined.

Troubleshooting

No matter what’s causing the issue, troubleshooting will always be a process of trial and error. In some cases, you may need to use several approaches before you can find a solution; other problems may be easy to fix

Testing & Commisioning

The purpose of this procedure is to define the step by step method to implement the correct practices for the pre-commissioning, testing & commissioning of lightning Protection system through the guide-line contained herein so as to ensure that the job execution complies with the project requirements and serves the intended function to satisfactory level.

Step & Touch Pontential testing

This testing defines step potential as the voltage between the feet of a person standing near an energized grounded object. Touch potential is the voltage between an energized object and the feet of a person in contact with the object.

Maintenance

It is recommended that all Lightning Protection Systems be visually inspected at least once per year. In some areas where severe climatic change occurs, it might be advisable to instead visually inspect systems semi-annually, or following extreme changes in ambient temperatures.

Site Survey, Investigation, Analysis & Audit

GLTM’s offer a complete package by visit your site and do a visual inspection of the facility, survey existing lightning & surge protection and also grounding system, report findings and make recommendations for improvements or suggest a customized lightning protection system and Earthing system recommendations based on site survey, technical analysis with compliance with latest IEC standard requirements.

Protection Training/Seminars

We offer training for your group on the latest developments in lightning system, grounding solutions and surge protection and best practices for application. We have nationwide experience in application of our products and can bring this directly to your team. Contact us to find out more.
