DESIGN
The ArcAngel kit was designed specifically with the motion picture industry in mind by accommodating the need for an on set lightning protection solution suitable to protect large outdoor generators but without requiring a costly custom installation or in any way damaging the rented equipment with a welded installation (which would be typical of an industry standard lighting protection installation). We designed the archangel kit to be a no-weld lightning protection solution that is lightweight, portable, and modular making it easy to install or uninstall around even the largest generators on your set in about 30 minutes or less. Each kit is packed into two convenient cases which are delivered to your set when you need them, followed by a scheduled pickup when you’re done.
The ArcAngel kit’s design and installation process are certified and evaluated as exceeding all lightning protection standards (NFPA 780 & LPI-175), by our consulting partner, Master Installer, Intercept Lightning Protection.

THE RIBCAGE STORY
We always wondered why sets shut down generators during 30/30 calls... and found out it's because the generators are susceptible to lightning strikes... so we made a prophylactic kit that the crew can deploy before storms occur.
Properly deployed ARCANGEL KITS allow a generator's grounding component to immediately conform to OSHA and NFPA/NEC standards, bolstering safety by alle viating the potential for deadly lightning attachments and side-flashes. With an ARCANGEL KIT, producers get a greenlight to shoot in lightning rich environments without the stress and cost of accumulating additional shoot day pile-on from loss of work due to 30/30 calls.
