My son is a qualified electrician but was posed a question by a customer and he was stumped.
What is the risk to him if he is working on a house (eg rewiring a kitchen) during a thunderstorm?
He didn’t know where to ask the question and get people who do really know what they are talking about.
Singletrack hive this is for you!
Thanks
Mother in Law's house got struck a couple of years back and a few appliances got fritzed. I guess anyone working on them or the circuits they were on wound have got a tingle.
As a telephone engineer, we are told to stop work as soon as thunder or lightning is heard/seen.
Particularly important if the power network is overhead I reckon.
Minimal risk, assuming he's isolated the supply before starting.
TBH it would depend on the house, with all it should be minimal, but some have earthing conductors making them safer etc
slightly off piste, but have you seen this on the BBC website -
