Avoid this situation with robust earth shunts using RGA's - Retractable Ground Assemblies supplied from EES.
A recent study has shown that at least 31% of all floating roof tank fires are caused by lightning. Floating roof tanks are uniquely vulnerable when lightning strikes nearby. The shell typically discharges its electrical charge more rapidly than the floating roof. This difference in electrical potential, increases the risk of sustained arcing, which can cause a shower of sparks at the roofshell interface.
