Thunder and lightning go hand in hand and basically it is the same arrester that works for both. Yes. Thunder lightning arrester and thunder arrested are the same.
you are probably hearing the thunder from a different lightning strike.
A thunder arrestor, also known as a lightning arrester, is a device used to protect electrical equipment from damage caused by lightning strikes. It works by providing a low-impedance path for the lightning to follow, directing the electrical surge safely to the ground. Thunder arrestors are commonly installed on buildings, power lines, and telecommunication towers to prevent costly equipment damage and ensure safety.
No. Lightning is caused by electrical charges travelling from clouds to the earth, earth to clouds or cloud to cloud. Thunder is caused by lightning.
Actually, thunder and lightning DO happen at the same time, but unless you are within the immediate proximity of the lightning strike, the observer usually sees the flash before hearing the thunder because light travels much faster (~11,000,000 mph) than sound (~750 mph).
Thunder is the sound caused by lightning, there is always thunder with lightning. If you cannot hear thunder maybe that is because you are too far away from the storm.
Lightning arrester or lightning rod is a rod paired with a conductor. The lightning arrester was invented by Benjamin Franklin in the late 1749.
The MCOV (Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage) rating for a lightning arrester is the maximum voltage that the arrester can continuously withstand without failing. It is important to select a lightning arrester with an appropriate MCOV rating to ensure that it can effectively protect against overvoltage events without being damaged.
Thunder and lightning occur roughly at the same time during a thunderstorm, but they are different things. Typically you see the lightning first and then you hear the thunder.
To change a lightning arrester to iridium, you would need to replace the existing lightning arrester component with one made from iridium material. This may involve removing the old lightning arrester and installing a new one that is designed with iridium. It is crucial to ensure that the replacement arrester is compatible with the existing system and meets the necessary safety standards. Consulting a professional electrician or engineer for guidance is recommended.

well.....there is a thunder god, so i can safely assume that the thunder and lightning god are the same. he is THOR
A lightning arrester (or lightning rod) works by providing a low resistance path to earth. This directs a lightning strike down the side of a building instead of it spreading through the electrical system.

Thunder and lightning occur simultaneously because they are both produced by the same atmospheric phenomenon: a lightning strike. When lightning flashes, it superheats the air around it causing it to rapidly expand and create a shock wave that we hear as thunder, which is why we perceive the two events as happening at the same time.
No, the two are quite different. The main difference is lightning is light, thunder is sound. Lightning is an electric charge that can come from a cloud for various reasons. Thunder is the sound made by lightning. Since sound travels slower than light, lightning comes first, thunder second.
Thunder and lightning are not the same. Lightning is a natural discharge of static electricity that occurs in the atmosphere during a thunderstorm, while thunder is the sound produced by the rapidly expanding and contracting air surrounding a lightning bolt. Both thunder and lightning are indeed related to electricity.
If you hear the thunder almost at the same time as the lightning flash - the storm is directly overhead. Usually - the sound of thunder arrives a few seconds after the lightning, because light travels much faster than sound.
