The sky has been full of thunderstorms. Watching bolts get dangerously close to the house has made me wonder what I could do to protect our house.

I found the answer on a ham radio mailing list today: a site called Radio Station Grounding. It is the most thorough, practical resource I’ve ever seen to describe the destructive effects of lightning and how they can be mitigated through grounding and bonding.

It’s loads of technical information, but you’ll learn something even if you’re not a radio operator. It’s truly fascinating stuff!
