Typhoon · Lightning · Short Circuits – 3 Tips to Get Through the Rainy Season Safely!

01 | Lightning Protection: Build a Strong Electrical Defense

• Impact grounding resistance
  Strictly control resistance to ≤1Ω for efficient lightning current dispersion.

• Equipotential bonding loop
  Connect with braided copper tape to instantly balance potential differences.
  Install surge protection devices in the power distribution cabinet for added safety.

• Pre-warning power cut
  Upon a thunderstorm warning, disconnect external power supply in advance.

02 | Heavy Rain Defense: Prevent Water Accumulation and Short Circuits

• IPX5-rated protection
  Highly sealed cabinets with breather valves to block moisture ingress.

• Scientific drainage design
  Reserve a 5°–10° tilt angle and keep the bottom at least 30 cm above ground.

• Post-rain inspection and clearing
  Clear drainage holes and remove nearby loose debris.

03 | Typhoon Preparedness: Ensure Structural Integrity

• Wind-resistant steel structure
  High-strength bracket design capable of withstanding typhoons up to Force 12.

• Proper restart procedure
  Follow the "power on first, then display on" sequence with an interval of >5 minutes.

• Avoid full-load operation
  Do not play all‑red or all‑white content at 100% brightness for extended periods.

• Prevent current overload
