Lightning Protection Safety by TheSafetyMaster™

 A lightning protection system is designed to protect a structure from damage due to lightning strikes by intercepting such strikes and safely passing their extremely high currents to the ground.

A lightning protection system included a network of air terminals, bonding conductors, and ground electrodes designed to provide a low impedance path to the ground for potential strikes.

Components of Lightning Protection System

Air Terminal:- A type of strike termination device intentionally installed for the purpose of Intercepting lightning flashes. These items are sometimes referred to as lightning rods.

Ground Terminal:- A rod that is driven into the ground to provide electrical connection to the ground to carry current safely away from a circuit in the event of an electrical surge

Conductors:- The air terminals are typically arranged at or along the upper points of a roof structure and are electrically bonded together by bonding conductors (called “down conductors” or “downleads”)

External Lightning Protection System

An external lightning protection system covers the structure of the building and people against direct lightning strikes.

1. The Air terminals fixed to the structures will intercept the lightning strike

2. The intercepted strike will then be discharged to the ground using the down conductor system.

3. The discharged lightning current will be distributed to the ground using the Earth Terminals

Internal Lightning Protection System

An Internal lightning protection system is a surge protection system that helps in guarding the equipment connected to electricity against lightning.

1. Surges caused by lightning and switching operations are responsible for a large number of occurrences of damage to electronic equipment.

2. In general, overvoltages first damage the most sensitive section of an electronic system.

3. In the case of a network, the most probable areas to experience damage are the network interface units of servers, workstations, and PC stations.

Installing Guidelines as per IS 2309

As per IS  - 2309:1989 following points to be taken under consideration while installing lightning Arrester:

1. Use to which the structure is put

2. Nature of its construction

3. Value of its contents or consequential effects

4. The locations of the structure and the height of the structure

5. The probability of a structure or building being struck by lightning in any one years is the product of the “Lightning Flash Density” and the “effective collection area” of the structure.

Pre-Startup Safety Review by TheSafetyMaster™

Management of Change and Pre-startup Safety Review (PSSR) Management of Change is the element for which all other foundation elements of Process Safety Management (PSM) are implemented. It is the PSM element that controls the introduction of new risk. Recognizing change, analyzing the danger of every change, and doing small changes efficiently are just a few of the hurdles that managers face with MOC implementation.

The aim of a pre-startup safety review is to assist make sure that proper safety measures are taken and are operational before a new chemical is placed or the current chemical plant is modified. The pre-startup review confirms that before the introduction of a modified chemical or a modification to the current hazardous chemical inventory:

·         Construction of equipment is in conformity with design specifications;

·         Safety, maintenance, operating, and emergency procedures are in their proper place and correct;

·         For new chemicals, a PHA has been performed and recommendations have been resolved or implemented before the chemical arrives on the site;

·         For changed processes, the Management of Change requirements have been met; and

·         Training of each employee involved in handling the dangerous chemical has been completed.

The Pre- Startup Safety Review is a safety review conducted before the startup of a modified or new manufacturing factory or facility to make sure that installations meet the first design, to catch and re-assess any potential hazard from the changes during the detailed construction and engineering phase of the project. In other words, it makes sure the status of the processing facility.

The Main Activities in the PSSR of a Project

Following activities are administered during a PSSR with coordination between Contractor and Owner of the plant/facilities:

·         Do PSSR participation from the authorized Contractor and Owner personnel

·         Do Technical and HSE reviews of documentation

·         Verify all construction and equipment is in conformity with safety, environmental and health regulation, and standards.

·         Complete all corrective action items raised within the PSSR.

·         Complete Post- Start-up corrective action items.

·         The representative of the Project Owner signs the PSSR checklists for approval of the commissioning/start-up of the plant.

·         Documentation of PSSR.

How TheSafetyMaster can Help:

HAZOP Study a Great Tool for Hazardous Industry to Identify Process Hazard by TheSafetyMaster

A hazard and operability study (HAZOP) is very important for identifying and evaluating problems that may represent risks to personnel or equipment within complex processes and operations. Multi-disciplinary teams are required to carry out a HAZOP, some of which may not have experience in the area before, or may need a guideline for best practice. TheSafetyMaster provides Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Training Programme.

There are some ways to assess a process or workplace for hazards, and every approach has strengths and weaknesses. For example, the worker-focused Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) is especially effective for the protection of workers, because it considers each task that a worker must perform. The technique includes an in-depth examination of the method and engineering intention of the latest or existing facilities to assess the hazard potential of operation outside the planning intention or malfunction of individual items of kit and their consequential effects on the facility.

HAZOP is led by an experienced facilitator. For an oil & gas project, a specific team would require a person from Machines, Project Engineering, Process, Instruments, and Operations, and it’d require the involvement of process technologists, environmental specialists and company Health & Safety and Environment (HSE) staff for few parts of the work.

HAZOP studies provide a particular method to enhance plant safety by taking consideration of technical and organizational hazards, human error and external influences. In addition to determining which safety measures provide genuine benefits, HAZOP studies also can help identify the qualitative solutions for functional safety assets of process control. The results can be used to reduce the likelihood of costly and time-consuming malfunctions while increasing operational safety and availability.

By the end of the Hazop training, employees will be able to:
• Make a successful HAZOP study that clearly identifies the scope and timeframes
• Select and motivate the HAZOP team to finish the study on time and with results
• Guide productive HAZOP study meetings to succeed in positive outcomes
• Identify and solve problems that occur during HAZOP studies
• Create effective and user-friendly HAZOP study reports
• Analyze HAZOP study results and form the organization’s improvement recommendations

This Training will benefit:
• All key persons in the organization, who by their discipline and/or position are likely to be called on to plan, organize or manage a HAZOP study.
• All who have responsibility for the management of process plant safety assessments using the HAZOP technique including but not limited to Senior Management, Plant Managers, Process and Maintenance engineers (all disciplines), Safety Specialists, and Process Training Instructors.

How Can We Help
TheSafetyMaster has conducted numerous HAZID’s/HAZOP studies for many clients. Our practical approach helps clients to correctly identify the hazards and implement cost-effective solutions. The focus on the Human Factor approach to HAZOP studies assists the client to identify potential hazards that may not be spotted in a regular HAZOP study.

Process Safety Management for Hazardous Industry TheSafetyMaster™

Process Safety Management is one of the most important functions of the management of any of the industries that are within the Oil & Gas, Pharmaceutical, Chemical, Petrochemical, fuel-based Power Generation, and similar domains. This is because these industries generally handle tons of hazardous materials, that have the danger of fireside, explosion, damage to have assets, adverse effects on people, toxic leaks and environmental destruction. It has played an important role within the chemical processing industries in order to handle flammable liquids and gases could proceed without undesirable consequences.

The process design and technology, changes within the method, materials, and changes in materials, operations, and maintenance practices and procedures, training, emergency preparedness and other elements affecting the tactics must all be considered within the systematic identification and evaluation of hazards so on to determine whether or not they need the potential to steer to a catastrophe within the workplace and surrounding community.

Process safety management is an integral part of the chemical processing facility safety program. An effective process safety management program requires the leadership, support, and involvement of top management, facility management, supervisors, employees, contractors and contractor employees.

The PSM standard targets highly hazardous chemicals that have the potential to cause a catastrophic incident. The purpose of the quality as an entire is to assist employers in their efforts to stop or mitigate episodic chemical releases that would cause a catastrophe in the workplace and possibly in the surrounding community. Organizations need to develop the specified experience, expertise, judgment, and initiative within their workforce to properly implement and maintain an efficient PSM program and to prevent these sorts of hazards.

Even a robust process safety management program is subject to wear and tear if not properly maintained. In order to maintain the optimal performance of your PSM program, it’s very important that you continually review your plan that can support its integrity. This requires ongoing support from organization leadership, keeping your employees engaged and informed, and helping your team feel fulfilled, committed, and motivated across the board.

·         Conduct Awareness Programmes to all personnel working for and on behalf of the organization

·         Make good the infrastructure free from any opportunities for an unsafe act

·         Introduce proactive measures in operational control & HSEQ procedures to regulate operations in a safe manner

·         Focus more on eliminating the causes

·         Prevention of Unsafe Work Conditions

·         Risk-based job planning & execution

·         Identify behavioral issues and provide counseling for correction

·         Focus on the prevention of unsafe conditions at an organization through every action by proper work outlet.

·         Execute and maintain the procedure.

The Safety Perception Survey

Some employers are beginning to involve employees more directly within the planning and development of their safety programs. A powerful tool that employers can utilize to interact with their employees is that the safety perception survey. A safety perception survey provides a quantitative measure of how employees feel about current safety policies and procedures and give them a chance to share their recommendations for improvement.
