What happens when it thunders and turns on the air conditioner? Does it matter if it thunders and turns on the air conditioner?

Now it's summer, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and people are starting to turn on air conditioners one after another, but the weather is always changing. Sometimes it's still very hot, and when the air conditioner is turned on, it will suddenly flash and thunder, even scary. Can you turn on the air conditioner when it thunders? What happens when it thunders and turns on the air conditioner? Does it matter if it thunders and turns on the air conditioner? Let's take a look.

1, the impact of thunder on air conditioning

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, it is risky, 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.

2, lightning weather precautions

1. Stay indoors and close the doors and windows. People who work outdoors should hide in buildings.

2. TV, audio and other electrical appliances without lightning protection measures or insufficient lightning protection measures should not be used, and faucets should not be used.

3. Don't touch antennas, water pipes, barbed wire, metal doors and windows, external walls of buildings, and stay away from live equipment such as wires or other similar metal devices.

4. Reduce the use of telephones and mobile phones.

5. Don't swim or engage in other water sports or activities, and it is not suitable for outdoor ball games. In case of lightning, you should leave the water surface and other open places immediately to find shelter.

6. Don't stand on the top of the mountain, on the roof or near objects with high conductivity.

7. Don't handle flammable items in open containers.

8. When you can't hide in a building with lightning protection facilities in the wilderness, stay away from trees and masts.

9. It is not advisable to open an umbrella in the wild, nor to carry hoes, shovels, badminton rackets, golf clubs, etc. On your shoulder.

10, which is not suitable for entering temporary shacks, sentry boxes or low-rise buildings without lightning protection facilities.

1 1, not suitable for driving a motorcycle or riding a bike.
