YILKOMER (LIGHTNING PROTECTION CENTER)

The foundations of the Lightning Protection Center were laid in 2010 by Electrical Engineer Serdar Aksoy, and since then, it has protected thousands of facilities across the country against lightning strikes and sudden overvoltage surges. YILKOMER has been involved in some of the most strategic projects in our country. Its main area of expertise is LIGHTNING PROTECTION Systems, and if a facility is protected by YILKOMER, it should feel 100% secure against lightning strikes.

Our company, which has focused all its knowledge on lightning protection and successfully provides protection in the most challenging environments, has adopted as its principle to offer the most accurate solutions to its customers against the increasing threat of lightning.

YILKOMER (Lightning Protection Center) aims to eliminate technical deficiencies in lightning and surge protection in Turkey and to establish systems entirely based on standards and engineering calculations. By providing our customers with accurate technical information, and combining this with site surveys, project design, and implementation, we function as a comprehensive center. Our main goal is to ensure your investments are reliably managed by preventing damage to your facility—from energy panels to the most sensitive PLC systems—through our expertise in low-voltage protection products.

The Lightning Protection Center uses products from many international companies in lightning and surge protection systems.

Lightning protection is a whole system; in Turkey, as elsewhere, protection cannot be achieved by simply installing a lightning rod. It requires serious engineering work, including surge arrester, grounding, and equipotential system integration. YILKOMER’s expert engineering team will protect your facility and living spaces in the most effective way.
