Anyway, I've just sent an email to Sime Darby few days ago to complain the lack of proper lightning protection and haven't got any reply till date. I hope more residents are aware of this problem and together we can get it solved:

It came to my attention recently that the surge & lightning protection of my Bandar Bukit Raja property (Saron 2) is insufficient as per both Malaysian & international IEC standards (Part 1 to 4 of IEC 62305). The risk is high as it involves the safety of house occupants as well as damage to costly electrical items. The number of affected residents is large, as it might involve both Saron & Nobat residents as well.

The reason why this is insufficient is due to the fact that the property was installed with a “Lightning Protection System” (LPS) which in this case is a lightning rod (external air terminal). According to IEC 62305, a Class 1/Type 1 SPD will be essential to protect against damage due to direct lightning striking the property. However only a Class 2/Type 2 SPD was installed and this is deemed unacceptable.

I’m rather disappointed that this fact was overlooked by your M&E consultant and would like to strongly request to replace the ABB Type 2 SPD with a Type 1+2 & Type 1 N SPD as suggested by ABB. Otherwise other manufacturers such as DEHN Type 1+2 DSH TT 2P 255 is also acceptable.

Full report with pictures are as attached as well as how lightning strikes could damage your house. Please give your comments.

P/S: Nobat residents if you could be so kind to share whether your DB has SPD Class 1 or Class 2 protection.

thanks for the effort sir.

I agreed, there are many loopholes. looking at the massive renovation on some of the houses, confirmed household income more than 8k.

sometimes when I use the main bathroom, there is a loud sound from the ceiling on top of me. not sure what is it, maybe from the water tank.

shud be extra careful, scared got burglar. my one sounded like water pump, loud.. they came last weekend and found no problem. but now no sound dy.

guys, usually when you wanna do renovation, and got neighbors beside your house, do you ask permission from them? or inform them? for eg, want to remove the steel gate (porch)?

sure gonna be super jam..

guys, saron no internet yet right? I mean from TM.

unifi or streamyx.

really ar? suppose it is the same right with streamyx?

last week TM people call, said saron still not yet being covered.

out of my budget sir. max usage only on weekend. unifi is overkill.

thanks bro.

then I should proceed with digi broadband.

guys, just want to ask regarding mobile phone lines in Saron, anyone using digi or umobile?

umobile totally out if downstairs. the rest still okay, not the best. bcoz currently I use umobile broadband..
