In my school days I had noticed that whenever the sky was overcast and lightning was seen in clouds, at the time of lightning there was a buzzing sound in a transformer close to my house and simultaneously light bulbs also became brighter although the lightning had not come to ground or any other object close to ground and took place much farther away up in the sky. I asked people but I couldn't get a satisfying answer. You have solved this age old riddle for me :-) now I understand that it happens because of a strong magnetic field around the lightning discharge bolt that can influence the electronics much farther away down on the ground in which a corresponding momentary electrical charge is produced and this surge may cause buzzing in transformers and making bulbs shine brighter.
is it possible for something electronic to be struck by a lightning surge not work but still have power going to it? specifically an electronic driveway entrance gate
Happens to me a couple of times already. Hit my PC, monitor & TV. Luckily, they weren't broken, at least materially. Now I turned them off whenever there's heavy lightning or rain, but sometimes it struck before I managed to do it.
Sir , whenever lightening strikes somewhere near the inverter in our home gets damaged. If i connect a m.c.b to the input of the inverter will it then protect the inverter from electric surges caused by lightening strike?
Actually i have looked up on the internet and found it out that surge protectors are very costly devices. So i thought of using m.c.b but as you have said it's not useful in this regard. Someone has told me to use r.c.c.b instead. Does any device other than lightening surge protector can protect inverter against lightening strike?
Hi Sir , want to find out what happen if the conductor open circuit in the middle while transferring the lightning current into the ground ? would the current backwards or how the current going to flow down to the ground ? Please advise , tq .
If the gap between two conductors is enough to pass the current in the form of spark...then it will coduct. Otherwise, High current will find other low resistance paths to ground!
@@EngineerWithin Hi Sir thanks for the replied and very happy to get the answer ...... which means the current will go upwards and downwards to find a low resistance paths to ground right ?
@@EngineerWithin Hi Sir , currently I'm handling a project which I'm trying to make use of the structural as a natural conductor , please refer to the photo the blue line is the lightning current flowing from the structural and end of the way is a cement block which is consider open circuit right , so my question is since is an open circuit on the cement block , how the lightning current to move ? backwards ? tq
Great Video clip! Excuse me for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Runayslarn Survival Manifestation (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing exclusive product for discovering how to repair your electronic items minus the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my work buddy after many years got astronomical success with it.
good explaination........ i have question so if we use mobile during thunderstorm or anyother device without contact with cable so it wont be harmed during lighnting right????
Just like a hour ago herd thunder then my internet went out, went up to restart it then saw smoke coming out of it... my router literally fried after a close lightning strike
Well lightning struck today and some stuff broke and here i am, great vid i undertand what happened now, also i cant find the vid on the lightning protection devices you mentioned

So inductive coupling is same as capacitive coupling?

Very beautifully explained . Thank you! Keep it up .
Thanks😇

No mcb does't protect against lightning

Same problem here😒

Noo...if your wire is broken...the. Current initially will follow low resistance path!
U know current can go around the global 7 times in a second!
@@EngineerWithin Noted Sir with many thanks .....

does fuse protect this?
Nice one...carry on bro for next video..
That's why we should use Surge protector
Interesting.......😇😇...
When you will upload protection video?
Maybe..after one or 2 videos

Yes it won't harm because your mobile conductors are very small..
Good... "Mikloprocesssooorl " 0:23
Can it affect electronic appliances even if the household circuits have circuit breakers (DCB, MCB) installed? If yes, then why?
Yess
Because MCB fails to protect from high voltage lightning surges!
@@EngineerWithin But why?
MCB is not made for lightning protection
You need to use other devices for that purpose
Like surge protectors
@@EngineerWithin if we cut the main supply current during lightning strike then does lightning may damage inverters and other appliances

@ritin kashyap no
@ritin kashyap i live in Pennsylvania lol
Excellent explanation

Thanks for giving useful information.
Easier to understand...suprb 😘😘
Fantastic presentation. Very helpful. thank you.
Nicely explained 👍
So that's why there is a tip switch in you house, right?
Yeah
@@EngineerWithin 👍
Very informative video
Make the search protector useless
Good video
Video nice
It just damaged my gaming pc :(
Use surge arresters!
