rubber will minimise the shock but will not avoid the shock

What does rubber soled shoes protect you from an electirc shocks?

It is not. Rubber is a bad conductor of electricity so it does not let an electric current pass through it.

The rubber soles of shoes or rubber tires on a car will protect you from being struck by lighting?

Rubber is a poor conductor of electricity, so wearing rubber-soled shoes or sitting in a car with rubber tires can help protect you from being struck by lightning. The rubber provides insulation, reducing the risk of electric shock in case of a lightning strike. However, it's still safest to stay indoors during a lightning storm.


How does the rubber sandal prevent electric shock?

Is it true that Rubber-soled shoes and rubber tires provide protection from lightning?

No. If the outside of the rubber is wet, the extremely high voltage electricity can be conducted around the rubber. Also, most consumer grade rubber boots or shoes do not provide enough insulation for even low household voltage protection, such as a flooded basement. Only certified and rated boots will offer any protection in such conditions. The metal body of the vehicle will protect you in case of a lightning strike. This phenomenon is called a faraday cage. The electricity will flow on the outside of a metal box, object or container.
