Wowser! Lightning strike two nights ago shook our house and sent our puppy (briefly) into hiding. Our son lives about 1/2 mi. away as the crow flies; the hit turned off some of his breakers. His across-the-street neighbor got interior damage (pin-hole leaks) in his baseboard heating system.
If lightning trips some breakers, seems to me that it also damages wiring. No appliances damaged at son's place. After his heart restarted, he turned off main breaker, looked around, turned back on and all seems to be okay. Suggestions? Have electrician in to check it out?
