A lightning detection and protection system includes a plug for plugging the system into a mains power supply outlet socket and a number of electrical sockets for receiving plugs from electrical appliance. The system also includes a lightning detector to detect a lightning strike and to estimate the distance of the lightning strike from the detector. A communications module, responsive to the lightning detector, communicates with a user that lightning has been detected by sending an SMS or data message to the user's cell phone. Finally, a lightning protection module disconnects at least one electrical socket from the mains power electrical supply either automatically if the lightning gets too close and/or by receiving an SMS / data response from the user. |
