Laptop plugged in during a storm Solved

Question

Hello, I would like to know what is recommended to do with electrical devices during a thunderstorm. If the outlet in question has a grounding system and lightning strikes the house, is the computer at risk of being damaged?
Thank you for your possible answers. :)

If you live in an apartment or a house that is less than 30 years old, you are at no risk.

Where is the surge protector located? On the circuit breaker or on the outlets?

In summary, if you want to use your phone during a storm, use it on battery and not connected to the outlet.
