the current which flows during lightening is ac or
dc,,,,,,,,,,, WHY
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / prabal roy
the current is neither ac nor dc....it is impulse current
of very high amplitude..

Answer / aslam ali
It's not DC because DC doesn't have any induction effect.It
is an impulse
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 0 No |
No dude ..its DC. when cloud is positively charged current
flows from cloud to earth as earth is at 0 potential. so
its unidirectional. sometimes when cloud is negatively
charged, current flows from earth to cloud. But its not
possible that same times same clouds gets + and - charged.
So at any instant current is from either cloud to earth or
earth to cloud. that is unidirectional. it does not changes
direction continuously for particular lightning.

Answer / saroj kayastha
I think DC current flows because, lightening occurs due to collides of positive cloud charges and Negative cloud charges
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 6 No |
its AC
IF ITS dc Then we can store itbecause DC can be store but
not possible for AC.
other reason its magnitude is changed which possible for AC

1)we r having one problem .one dry type transformer(6.6KV/433V)is taking high magnetizing current on delta connected HV side of "U" phase when compared to other two phases.could any body tell the reason why it is happening? 2)why CT secondary side protection core has got higher winding resistance when compared to that of metering core of same CT?

How to calculate voltage drop in copper and aluminium cable? I have laid 240Sq.mm Aluminium cable for the length of 600 Mtrs in 1 Mtrs underground. Normal load is 150A. Transformer is 630KVA, 6.KV/433V. But, I am getting only 395 Volts when load. How to calculate voltage drop and what is the permissible voltge drop for this circuit?
what does vector group Dyn11 tell us? also tell me how will u differentiate between phase lead and phase lag thru this vector group
Is there a possibility to use such a treshold voltage for the NMOS part of a CMOS circuit that during the switching it will start conducting only after the PMOS part will be already closed, by this eliminating the leakedge current? Please note, I'm not asking about the well bias in standby mode, but about the "antileakedge" measures during normal operation.
