Can I turn on the air conditioner when it thunders?

Yes, but you'd better not.

When designing the air conditioner, a "lightning protection" board is designed on the main control board, and the signal communication lines between indoor and outdoor units of the air conditioner are mostly shielded signal lines, and the air conditioner has good grounding. These are all to ensure that the air conditioner can work normally in thunderstorm weather, when the power supply voltage fluctuates or when there is electromagnetic interference beside the air conditioner.

However, in thunderstorm weather, due to the existence of lightning, it is easy to cause the power supply voltage of air conditioning to fluctuate greatly in an instant. If lightning causes excessive fluctuation of air conditioning power supply, it may lead to abnormal situations such as burning of air conditioning electronic control components. If possible, it is best to stop using the air conditioner in thunderstorm weather and cut off the power supply of the air conditioner. If you insist on continuing to use it, there is a risk, but the risk is not great.

It is also suggested that the power supply should be cut off when the air conditioner is not used for a long time to prevent the air conditioner from being damaged by thunderstorm weather.

Precautions for using air conditioner:

1 and 26℃ are most suitable. The indoor temperature should not be adjusted too low, and the difference with the outdoor temperature should not exceed 8 degrees. Generally speaking, it is most appropriate to adjust the air conditioning temperature to about 26℃, because the most suitable temperature for people in air-conditioned rooms is 25-26 degrees Celsius. For people with weak constitution, the air conditioning temperature should be raised by about 2 degrees.

2. The air conditioner blows upward. When you turn on the air conditioner, you'd better turn the air conditioner to blow upward to avoid cold air blowing directly on people and causing people to catch a cold. If you sit close to the air conditioner, don't turn your back to the air conditioner, because the cold air blowing from behind will do harm to people's back and waist.

3. Turn on the air conditioner 10 minutes after entering the house. Some people turn on the air conditioner when they get home. In fact, this is not appropriate. They should have a rest first, and then turn on the air conditioner when their temperature drops. It is recommended to turn on the air conditioner after entering the house 10 minutes.
