Hi @ all,
I absolutely love thunderstorms & lightning and I'm used to go out on my balcony to watch them. Our (11-storey) house is equipped with a lightning rod, which, as I noticed today, is attached to the metal railing of my balcony (on the 5th floor).
My question now is: What happens when a lightning strikes our house at the top while I'm having my hand on the metal railing of my balcony? Is there a danger of being electrocuted by the current which discharge through the lightning rod?
Greetings
