      It is safe inside a metal container..their is no electric field inside metal enclosed objects.but it conducts electricity on its surface.🙂

    If lightning runs into your home I highly recommend that you call a licensed electrical contractor that specializes in lightning remediation. Many times we find a lot of hidden dangerous damage to homes electrical wiring systems. Homes aren’t designed for very high voltage.

    Most electronics are protected from lightning like fuses In your houses, but make sure you change your fuses after lightning takes one out

    • @weeardguy
      @weeardguy 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That's bullshit. If lightning reaches an appliance, you're already too late. A fuse is too slow BY FAR to protect against lightning. And, most lightning will most likely enter your home as a power surge: if you're lucky, the surge protector in an extension cord will do it's job and cause a short, which will cause the main circuit breaker to trip. But there is almost nothing you can do against a direct strike: wires will just vaporize, fuses could even stay healthy as the voltage just arcs over the terminals on the PCB.

    Only metal vehicles with metal roofs will protect you from lightning: fiberglass vehicles, like Corvettes, and golf carts with no metal roofs will NOT protect you from lightning! It is not the rubber tires that protect you from lightning; it is having a metal enclosure around you that protects you. If lightning strikes an all-metal vehicle, the charge will jump from the wheel's metal rim to the ground below it after it passes through all the metal on the vehicle.

    What is the punishment for class E felony in NY?
    A Class E felony charge is considered more serious than a misdemeanor charge, and as such carries a potentially longer jail sentence. While a Class A misdemeanor in New York carries a sentence of up to 364 days, a Class E felony can result in a sentence of between one year and five years.Apr 21, 2022

    Just do it like what NASA does. Make a highrise earthed lightning rods around your house, and it will strike the rod, instead of your house.

    • @normalstranger
      @normalstranger 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      But would that attract lighting? Like would you have more lighting around you with those rods than without?
