Can you watch TV with thunder and lightning, can you watch TV with thunder

If your home is in a relatively empty village, or in a relatively tall building, or in the mountains, it is recommended not to look at it, otherwise it may be struck by lightning.

I suggest you don't read it, but Lei Xiao can.

You have to see if there is a lightning rod on the roof, and if there is, don't be afraid.

You can watch TV when thunder strikes in a city with a lightning rod, but you can't watch TV if you watch TV with a wireless device used in the suburbs. Because lightning is very unstable, it can hit anything on the ground, as long as it hits any position on the line, the strong current can damage the TV; When thunder, try to turn off the electrical appliances and unplug the power of the electrical appliances to avoid the bad impact of lightning on the electrical appliances.

If the lightning is relatively large, it is recommended to unplug the indoor power supply, although some electrical appliances and communities are equipped with lightning protection devices, but as the saying goes, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, for the safety of life, it is best to cut off the power supply.

Precautions for thunder.

Don't go out to play when thunder, summer is the season of thunder and lightning, in case of thunderstorms, try to go home when the thunderstorm is small, if you encounter a thunderstorm, it is recommended to find a house or a shopping mall to take refuge. If you are at home, it is advisable to close the doors and windows, as there is a chance that lightning can enter the room through the windows. In addition, most of the incidents hit by falling lightning occurred in heavily minerated areas, such as the Leizhou area of Fujian Province.

Of course, if you are not in a heavy minefield, you should also pay attention, after all, life safety is the most important.

It is recommended not to watch.

With the current lightning protection technology, as long as the TV is not connected to an external outdoor antenna, the TV can be used indoors normally. In the early days, the TV received the signal by relying on the antenna equipment outside the house, which was generally made of metal, and it was easy to become a lightning guide in thunderstorms, so the TV had to be turned off and the socket must be unplugged during thunderstorms.

But now with the advancement of technology,Most of the homes are using digital TV or smart TV,The possibility of lightning detonating the TV with the antenna is greatly reduced,Therefore, users can rest assured**TV in thunderstorms。

However, during a thunderstorm, the voltage may vary dramatically. If a transmission line fails, the power supply voltage rises instantaneously. This high voltage is not withstood by the internal components of the TV.

Therefore, it is best to stop watching unless there is a special need.

If the TV is set up with an outdoor antenna and is not equipped with a good lightning protection device, the watch should be stopped immediately at the early day of the thunderstorm socks, and the power supply and antenna should be unplugged to avoid damage to the TV and prevent personal **.

Thunderstorm avoidance measures

1.Stay indoors. People who work outdoors should take refuge in buildings.

2.Never swim or engage in other water sports. Get out of the water and find a place to hide.

3.Avoid using ** or other electrical appliances with plugs, including computers, etc.

4.Never touch antennas, faucets, water pipes, barbed wire, or other similar metal devices.

5.Avoid showering with rain falls.

6.Do not dispose of flammable materials in open containers. Do not stand on the top of a mountain or near objects with high electrical conductivity.

Trees or masts are susceptible to lightning strikes and should be kept away as much as possible. When lightning strikes an object, the current spreads through the ground, so don't lie on the ground, which is especially dangerous on wet ground. Squatting should be done and the area in contact with the ground should be minimized.

7.Hikers and other outdoor activities are advised to carry a radio and chopsticks with them and keep abreast of the latest weather news issued by the Meteorological Observatory.

8.Be aware that heavy rains may occur at any time, and do not stay in rivers, streams or low-lying areas.

9.Motorists should beware of strong gusts of wind if they are driving on highways or flyovers.

10.Boats at sea should be cautious of strong winds or waterspouts.

11.In the event of a tornado, take shelter in a sturdy building immediately. Stay away from windows, crouch on the ground, and protect your head with your hands or a thick pad. If you are outdoors, stay away from trees, cars or other objects that can be blown up by tornadoes.

The high voltage generated by the strong movement of the atmosphere can be instantaneously discharged through the power line or antenna (mainly long wire) of electrical equipment, resulting in internal breakdown (high-voltage damage) or melting (power damage) of electronic components in electrical equipment, and finally causing permanent damage to electrical equipment

And the strong magnetic field caused by this high voltage and strong discharge sometimes produces high voltage in the transformer of some electrical appliances, burning electronic components Good electrical appliance manufacturers will do the corresponding lightning protection measures when designing circuits and designing printed circuit boards, high-rise buildings must be equipped with lightning rods, and do not use electrical appliances when thundering

TV: When watching TV during thunder, the image is very unstable, the interference is large, and the mood is always a little scared, worried about the plane crashing and dying, is this possible?

In fact, as long as the outdoor antenna is not connected, the TV is used indoors, and there is generally no need to be frightened, because although the thunder and lightning are powerful, before entering the room, the thunderstorm clouds have already discharged with the earth. In the short discharge process, most of its huge energy is converted into heat, light and other energy, so it will not cause harm.

Usually when lightning strikes, when watching TV during the event, most of the interference on the screen and in the accompanying sound is the radiant energy of lightning, not the energy of induction or discharge. This kind of radiant energy generally does not damage the TV.

However, it must be emphasized that it is dangerous to use an outdoor antenna or to watch television outdoors during a thunderstorm, and lightning protection measures must be taken if it is monitored.

Electric light: When thunder, the voltage becomes very large instantly, which will cause the electric light to ignite and cause a disaster. But there is usually no need to turn off the lights, because the voltage increases, and the work of the substation is suspended at the same time, that is, the power is out, so the lights at home will automatically turn off the power even if they are not turned off, which is safe.

Computer: The voltage of the powerful lightning will cause the semiconductor integrated circuit to be instantly broken down and lose its original polarity, so the integrated circuit will be damaged, the computer is composed of a large number of integrated circuits, and the integrated circuit will be broken, and the computer will be broken.

In addition, the voltage of thunder is very high, and the instantaneous high-voltage discharge will cause the nitrogen in the air to be broken down and burned, which is to release a lot of heat, and it will also burn the computer.

Furthermore, the type of lightning belongs to static electricity, and those who know the circuit know that static electricity is the first killer of integrated circuits.

Thunder has the opportunity to cause the wire to produce instantaneous high voltage At this time, the high voltage may break through the electrical components, and the serious one may cause **, and the slight one will also burn the fuse tube So if it is an area with more serious thunder, sometimes even the electric lights must be turned off, because it may suddenly burst on, hurting people nearby Of course, if the clouds are very high, it will have no effect Generally, those thunders that sound more scary, the clouds are low, and they must be turned off at this time!
