Does static electricity give light to your house?

No, static electricity does not light your home. Electric power plants send electricity to your house via the power grid, all of which works on an alternating current or AC. At the generating plant, this alternating current is stepped up to high voltages to distribute it, and it is then stepped down on the delivery end. The electricity is distributed to everyone on the power grid, and your house applies the AC to power up the lights and the electrical appliances.Static electricity, which is generated in tiny amounts around us all the time, is not a "stable" or "reliable" source of power. We haven't yet been successful in harnessing lightning, the most powerful of earth's static electric sources, to apply it to useful purposes on anything buy an experimental scale. We don't use static electricity for residential purposes.
