Electrical Grounding & Lightning Protection Reduce shock and fire risk, stabilize protective devices, and protect sensitive electronics with audit-ready, OSHA and
insurer-defensible results.

Why AMPSAFE, LLC

  • Decades of leadership: Founder Ruben Corvalan, PE, CESCP has 30+ years real life experience across facility grounding, sensitive electronics, lightning, and surge protection.
  • We train the industry: Official instructor for SKM 207 (three-day grounding course) teaching practices many firms struggle to apply consistently.
  • Proven in the field: Hundreds of successful audits from substations and services to MCCs, control rooms, server racks, and LPS interfaces.

Benefits you feel

  • Lower shock & fire risk: Verified, low-impedance fault paths and equipotential bonding minimize touch/step hazards.
  • Fewer nuisance trips & cleaner power: Proper reference grounds stabilize protective devices and improve power quality
  • Peace of mind: Accurate data collection by vetted safety engineers, with office-based QC, yields reliable results that stand up to audits and insurers.

What we do

  • Code and IEEE Standard Compliance. End-to-end grounding audits against NEC (NFPA 70), IEEE Green Book (Std 142), and IEEE Emerald Book (Std 1100).
  • Lightning & surge integration: Evaluate grounding interfaces to LPS and surge protective devices to reduce over voltage exposure.

Deliverables

  • Clear, actionable report: Photos of issues, exact NEC article citations, and prioritized recommendations for compliance, safety, and performance.
  • Defensible record: Findings organized for OSHA audits/insurers; optional executive summary for leadership.
