Which device is used to provide both lightning and surge protection for pipeline fittings?

The device used to provide both lightning and surge protection for pipeline fittings is grounding cells. Grounding cells act as a connection point allowing for the safe dissipation of electrical surges caused by lightning strikes or electrical faults. By effectively grounding the fittings, these devices minimize the risk of damage to the pipeline system, ensure safety, and enhance the reliability of the infrastructure.

In addition to protecting against electrical surges, grounding cells are essential for maintaining the integrity of the pipeline's integrity against corrosion caused by electrical activity. They offer a critical function in the overall corrosion control strategy, making them indispensable for pipeline safety and longevity.
