There is one thing you must unplug every time it rains or thunders.
Who hasn’t bounced when they heard lightning streak across the sky, followed by a deafening roar? When lightning strikes near your home, it’s not just the weather that becomes electric, but also your equipment… and sometimes with terrible consequences. Let’s explore together the crucial steps you need to know.
Why unplugging your devices is crucial
Although most modern homes are attached with circuit breakers and sometimes flow protectors, these devices do not assure complete protection. In France, as elsewhere, lightning can directly strike a building, a nearby tree, or, more often, power or telephone lines from a distance. The electricity generated can then travel along the cables to your meter and connected appliances.
Every year, many families suffer accidents: broken televisions, damaged refrigerators, and fried computers, often because of power surges caused by thunderstorms.
