3. Lightning effects
As an electrical phenomenon, lightning can have the same consequences as any other current flowing in an electrical conductor, or any current flowing through a poor conductor or insulator. Consequently, the following effects can be expected:
thermal effects (melting and heat release) ;
electrodynamic effects (forces between conductors) ;
electrochemical effects (galvanic decomposition) ;
acoustic effects (thunder).
Of these four types of effect, only the first two play a significant role in practice.
