Carnival Cruise Lines, one of the world’s leading cruise operators, prioritizes the safety and security of its passengers and crew. Operating on vast open waters, their ships are exposed to extreme weather conditions, including the ever-present risk of lightning strikes. That’s why Carnival Cruise Lines has chosen CMCE Lightning Suppression to protect their premier vessels: Carnival Mardi Gras and Carnival Valor


The Risk of Lightning Strikes at Sea 


Unlike land-based structures, cruise ships stand isolated on the open ocean, making them a prime target for lightning strikes. Their towering structures, communication masts, and expansive decks create multiple conductive points that can attract lightning. A direct strike can result in significant electrical damage, navigation system disruptions, and potential safety hazards for passengers and crew. 


With thousands of passengers on board at any given time, Carnival Cruise Lines sought a solution that would not only eliminate the risk of lightning strikes but also ensure long-term reliability and ease of maintenance. The CMCE Marine Lightning Suppressor emerged as the superior choice. 


Why Carnival Chose CMCE 


Carnival Cruise Lines opted for CMCE technology due to its unique ability to prevent the formation of lightning strikes in the first place. Unlike traditional lightning rods that attract lightning, the CMCE Lightning Suppressor drains the electrical charges from the atmosphere. This proactive approach eliminates the possibility of strike formation, removing the risk of onboard electrical damage. 


The CMCE system offers key advantages: 


  • Minimal Maintenance: Unlike conventional lightning rod systems that require frequent inspections and component replacements, CMCE units are designed for long-term durability with minimal upkeep. 
  • Enhanced Safety: By preventing lightning formation, CMCE technology ensures a safer environment for passengers and crew, minimizing the risk of electrical damage and system failures. 
  • Reliable Performance: The marine environment presents unique challenges, but the CMCE is built to withstand harsh oceanic conditions, ensuring continuous protection year-round. 


We are proud to partner with industry leaders like Carnival Cruise Lines to provide innovative solutions that redefine safety standards in the maritime industry. As we continue to expand our presence in marine lightning protection, our commitment remains the same — delivering cutting-edge technology that prevents lightning before it strikes.
