Designed for South Texas Conditions
South Texas is one of the most lightning-prone regions in the country, and unprotected electrical and control equipment is especially vulnerable. Mercer Controls designs and installs lightning protection solutions specifically for the realities of Texas infrastructure.
Our systems help protect critical equipment from damage and costly downtime caused by lightning strikes and electrical surges.
Protecting Critical Equipment
Lightning and surge events can damage meters, instrumentation, PLCs, VFDs, radios, and other sensitive electronics. Mercer Controls installs protection measures such as:
- Lightning arresters and surge protection devices
- Equipment grounding improvements
- Protection for power, control, and communication circuits
These measures reduce the risk of equipment failure and extend system life.
