Technology That Protects What Matters Most
CMCE Lightning Suppression
System Advantages
Step inside the innovation that
eliminates lightning before it becomes a threat
The CMCE Lightning Suppressor is a Variable Electromagnetic Field Balancer (VEB). Designed using Nikola Tesla patent technology, the CMCE uses a process called deionization to drain the atmosphere of the excess positive and negative ionic charges that build up during a thunderstorm. Once absorbed into the device, the CMCE internally rearranges the charges, turns them into harmless milliamperes, and grounds them through a ground wire. This process eliminates upward streamers by balancing the electrical field, preventing lightning strike formation within the CMCE coverage area.
The CMCE Advantage
Active Lightning Prevention
Unlike traditional rods that attract strikes, CMCE suppresses the electrical conditions that cause lightning, reducing strike risk proactively.
Always on, No power needed
CMCE operates independently — no A/C, no batteries, no downtime.
Versatile Applications
Designed for commercial, industrial, residential, and marine environments, CMCE adapts to diverse settings with proven effectiveness.
Proven Field Performance
Over 20 years of successful deployments worldwide demonstrate CMCE’s ability to protect critical infrastructure in high-risk areas.
Turnkey Installation
Encore Land & Sea provides expert installation services, ensuring seamless integration and optimal system functionality.
Low Maintenance
With just annual maintenance and a 10-year warranty, you gain complete peace of mind.
CMCE Vs. Traditional Lightning Protection
Electrical Voltage Test
The electrical voltage of a lightning rod was laboratory tested by The Technical Institute of Energy, utilizing a pointed lightning generator placed 38 cm above the tip of the rod, and the voltage produced a fire. Subsequently, the CMCE Lightning Suppressor was tested with the same pointed lightning generator, applying the maximum amount of voltage at 140,000 volts. A fire never occurs during the CMCE test; however, there is an observation of small streams of electrical current passing through the CMCE to the grounding wire, validating efficacy compared to the traditional Franklin Lightning Rod.
Trusted Protection Backed by Real Results
"Since installing the CMCE system, our facility has experienced zero lightning-related downtime. The technology’s proactive suppression approach gives us unmatched peace of mind."

CMCE Lightning Suppression FAQs
Find clear answers to common questions about the CMCE Lightning Suppression System, its operation, and benefits for various applications.
If we did not fully answer your questions, please reach out to us. We are happy to provide clarification or additional information - no questions go unanswered.
How does CMCE Lightning Suppression Technology work?
CMCE technology prevents lightning by neutralizing the electrical conditions that cause strikes, rather than attracting them. This passive suppression deionizes the atmosphere by acting as a capacitor, constantly draining the atmosphere of the ionic charge necessary for lightning strike formation.
What is involved in the installation process?
Our certified technicians conduct a site assessment to design a tailored system. Site assessments can be conducted virtually. Installation is performed with minimal disruption, ensuring the CMCE system integrates seamlessly with your property or vessel. Typical installations can be completed within one day.
Which industries benefit most from this technology?
CMCE systems protect a wide range of sectors including commercial buildings, industrial plants, residential properties, and marine vessels, offering reliable defense against lightning-related hazards.What support services does Encore Land & Sea provide?
An annual inspection of the CMCE Lightning Suppression System is reccomended. We offer ongoing maintenance, system monitoring, and expert consultation to ensure your lightning suppression system remains effective throughout its lifespan.
How high does the CMCE need to be mounted?
For land installations, it is recommended that the CMCE be mounted 6' above the highest point of the structure. For marine installations, it is recommeded that the CMCE be mounted 1' above the highest point, excluding outriggers and antennas, which can be heat-shrink wrapped.
