MCQ
Which one of the following is a safe place during lightning?
  • A
    Under a tree
  • B
    Under a light post
  • House with lightning arrester
  • D
    High wall

Answer

Correct option: C.
House with lightning arrester

Lightning arrester arrests lightning and allows a safe path of electricity to ground. Thus it is a safe place inside a house that has a lightning arrester on the top of it. Else, electricity finds a high tower or tree or wall and travels through them to ground. Therefore these are not safe places to take shelter during lightning.
