What this shows Lightning's Innovation Score is 46.4/100 (top 21% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Lightning?

Each dot is one of Lightning’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Lightning’s own 15.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Lightning's grants concentrate

Lightning Suppression Systems Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under H02G (Installation OF Electric Cables OR Lines, OR OF Combined Optical AND Electric Cables OR Lines). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Lightning sits between LightMachinery Inc. and Lionbridge Technologies, LLC.

Lightning's three-year grant acceleration

Lightning Suppression Systems Co., Ltd. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
