How to prevent lightning strikes on tents during thunderstorm weather:

1. Which is more attractive to lightning, aluminum pole or glass pole?

The firing of lightning first depends on the height of the conductor, and lightning will hit the conductor. As for aluminum poles and glass poles, the fabric of the tent on rainy days will be affected

Rainwater becomes a conductor, so whether it is an aluminum pole or a glass pole, it doesn't matter. On the contrary, the height determines the lightning strike.

2. How to prevent tents from being struck by lightning?

The damage of lightning mainly comes from two aspects: direct strike or high-voltage arc. To avoid direct hitting, the simple principle is not to become like this

The gao points in the region are always prone to splitting. And arc is an air discharge phenomenon caused by the high voltage of lightning. After hitting an object,

Instantaneous high voltage can form an arc near the object, causing injury. Therefore, while not becoming a high point, it is also important to avoid camping near the high point, otherwise it may lead to

It will be hit by an electric arc. So, the ideal way is to choose an overall terrain and vegetation that is relatively low in height and can maintain a certain distance from tall plants or buildings

Set up camp at the designated location.

3. If hit, which is better, aluminum pole or glass pole?

In theory, glass rods cannot share the current passing through the body due to their lack of conductivity, while aluminum rods can act as parallel conductors to assist

The body bears some electrical current. So the conclusions are as follows:

1. If there is thunder on rainy days, aluminum poles are not more dangerous than glass poles and may even be safer. Because at this point, any tent pole will become a conductor, so the key is

Who can better digest the current after a lightning strike.

2. If there is thunder on a sunny day, aluminum poles are even more dangerous. Because at this moment, only the aluminum pole tent attracts lightning strikes.

3. The selection of tent poles is only a secondary lightning protection measure, the real key is to grasp the basic principles of camp selection and take preventive measures for lightning protection.
