The Compound Air-Plasma Lightning Rejection System (CPLR) is an invention that can neutralize lightning strikes by generating and releasing high-density plasma ions into the air. It was invented by a top Chinese scientist, Professor Dr. Kun Sheng Wang, and is the first system that can extinguish lightning strikes. The CPLR works by detecting electrical fields from lightning clouds within 20km and then releasing positive and negative charges from an air plasma generator to neutralize the downward streamer from the cloud and prevent lightning formation. This protects the area under the CPLR system from both direct lightning strikes and secondary surges.

CPLR or Compound Air Plasma Lightning Rejection System is the first system ever invented in the world to extinguish the lightning strikes. Invented by the one of the top 60 scientist in China, Professor Dr Kun Sheng Wang had received several silver and gold awards in international invention fairs for this invention. The principles of the CPLR is to neutralized the downleader streamer of the lightning cloud by generating highly density plasma ion and released it to the air. Thus, will eliminate the early formation of the lightning strikes and protect the vicinities.
Why CPLR? Standard Lightning protection system either conventional or unconventional early streamer emission (ESE) will divert the high energy lightning to the ground. This will protect the building structure as well as the human life inside the building and also prevent fire. But, no matter how effective your lightning protection system, the equipment is still subject to secondary effect of lightning or transient overvoltage or commonly known as surges. By implementing the CPLR, the area under the protection radius will never experienced direct lightning strikes or surges since the formation of lightning is neutralize through the emission of the high density plasma into the air.
How CPLR Works?
The early lightning detector will detect electrical field strength of lightning cloud within the radius of 20km. Then the detector will triggers the control unit to automatically starts the air-plasma generator. The generator will release the ions when the lightning cloud is within 3km radius. The released positive charges will neutralize the not so intensified downward leader from the cloud. Meanwhile the released negative charges will neutralize the natural positive charges on the ground. This process innovatively diffuse the formation of lightning.

Typical Application of CPLR
CPLR is mostly suitable for solar farm, military radar station, ammunition depot and highly inflammable area. In solar farm for instance, it is worthy to install CPLR because of the millions initial investment incurred . A typical 2MWp system is easily cost more than RM15millions and per month sun yield is approximately RM200,000. Imagine if the system strikes by lightning and fails for weeks, losses will be millions! Geographically, Malaysia is located in one of the world's highest lightning density regions. Solar farm especially, requires direct sunlight for optimum output. The PV panels are openly at risk to lightning strikes. Investors should seriously consider CPLR as an effective solutions to protect their investment. Beside that, CPLR will also save the cost of replacing the equipment damaged by lightning. CPLR is the best choice to provide the best insurance for your investment.
