I have two lightning rods. One is at the highest point on my roof and has a pointed tip and is attached to a thick piece of copper that goes 8 feet into the ground. That one makes me feel safe.
But the one attached to my solar array is horizontal in a 14 inch deep trench in the ground... right where the run off from the roof is.
It worries me. What if someone were walking over that area during a lightning storm and lightning struck... wouldn't the water sizzle the person...?
This may be a more theoretical forum, than applied.
I just would really like to know. I've asked at several different forums and haven't gotten much in the way of definitive answers.
