Al2—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 14,1983 Now is the Time 'Continued from Page AID) To Inspect Lightning Rod System The thunderstorm season is at hand and buildings that have rods should be protected; that is, if the rods are connected and free of obstructions. We urge owners of rodded buildings, especially barns, to inspect them closely and remove all items that will stop the flow of the electrical bolt. In many cases straw, hay, bags, or bird nests might be between the rod and the building and cause a fire. Also, be sure the rods go into moist soil and are well grounded. A close in spection of the rod systems will assure the protection that is needed.
