Cyprus would appear to be a magnet for dramatic thunder storms, could this be literally true?  Cyprus derives its current name from Kupros, The ancient name for copper. Copper was first mined and worked in the forth millennium B.C by the Cypriot people and in some areas is still mined today. Could this possibly lead to a theory that the Island, with its high copper content would make an extremely good electrical conductor, which in turn may attract electrical storms through the law of attraction?   The Attraction of negatively charged clouds to a positively charged Cyprus? It is only a thought; maybe you could mail me your own theories on this subject.
Well whatever the reasons the fact is, we get some pretty good storms here and these storms will cause severe damage. Lightning discharges are awesome. They are claimed to have currents of up to 530,000 amps and produce voltages in the magnitude of millions of volts. It has be suggested that the energy from 1 strike could light millions of 100watt light bulbs . If lightning strike's a building without a structural lightning system. This energy would seek a path to earth through the fabric of the building, in an erratic and un-predictable manner. The building is likely to be damaged and may even catch fire.  Lightning Protection Our company is qualified to install Furse Structural lightning protection systems, ESP(Electronic Systems Protectors) and lightning barriers (for surge and spike protection).We have been protecting your homes and business properties for many years now in Cyprus with excellent results.
