I noticed that the term stepped leader has been introduced in this field , my thesis was in 1968/69 so please excuse me from the terminology in my day they were refered to as a spur ! the " plasma" that you refer to is actually ionisation of the local gasses which is a plasma stream but with out selected gasses every gas gets the treatment especially oxygen and nitrogen the oxygen turns into ozone ,ie o3 which you can smell after a lightening event .YT has some vids on it google slow motion lightening which may help the mind

I won't enter into this discussion....it's way above my pay grade.
But thought these couple of links might be interesting:
Why does lightning strike from the ground-up?
Protection Against Dangerous Lightning Strikes and Their Secondary Effects
I cant read and adsorb it after the 3 rd Stroke. I Find reading very extremely difficult some times because my Brain wont adsorb it and if it very complicated I defiantly wont adsorb it but I am still very good thinking out of the square to a point that I can built a complicated Computer with twin 1080's GPU for ????????. My doctor and specialist said to me not to torment yourself, but at the same time I wont sit there staring out the window looking the TV.
I say this to everyone I wish for one hour the Issue I have other people have it and see what I going through My Friend I will never give up, I'm extremely stubborn and will never give up even if it take 6 times the time to do something.
All I need is some to be written in Point Formation 'EG"

1/ Earth all you dishes via a single rod to each as close as possible with 6mm cable with NO BENDS on the Cable.
2/ Use So and son on this and that.
3/ also do this and that
Yeah my Brain like it like this!!! and has massive issue in comprehensions things (thank God for spell checker)
Cant help the way my Brain is but I can go with it or go around this issue and this is way I always have my daughter involved with anything to do beside she learns
Anyhow Back on topic and the topic is What does one room TV gets effected when there is a Bad Storm yes all the other room TV's are OK and my Main TV room with a 75 inch Tv + 8 24 inch monitors + Plenty of Sat Boxes + at least 6 Amps and one Amp Processor (pre outs) are not effected at all in 10 years
ps: i'm thinking out of the square, I want to see if the eat room is on the same Phase as the Main TV room or I might run a extension lead from the main tv room from spare P/P on the same point and run it to the eat Room.

I have two Multi Meters one is a FLUKE and measures in I think both read RMS. Yes ENERGEX last Summer had 4 monitors put in the Extended Pillar boxes for a full week around the streets but the week was colder (typical) so they can Monitor the 3Phases and they found that the last two houses on the end of the cul-de-sac (our Pillar) which one is us have a extreme low voltage on very hot days around 212 or 214V AC per from phase to neutral. Trust Me I have a 3M temperature thingy the ones the V'8 Supercars use to measure the track temperature so I went around the street to see if one of the pillars have a hot spot in it but I found none. Anyhow this summer is Coming but this time I will be ready and waiting and this OLD MAN Wont give up until this issue is fixed by Energex. By the way Energex white Paper says the Min Voltage to you house is 206V not 216 V as most know. Yes I have a Copy of it. I suspect from the last Pillar to our pillar where the two house are and one of them is us has underground 3 Phase @ 16 MM not 32 MMMM for the two house and one of them have a LARGE AIR CON. Will find out soon (the main street has 120MM the Cul de sacs with limited houses has 32 mm but our one because we have two Houses with Larger Blocks only has one pillar shared by the two of us and it should be 32mm not 16 mm. Will find out soon nought but this is another issue and possible, yes possible not to do with a stormy day and one tv room that is effected
After the RCD is a lot more complicated but a mile. No one has on the lounge room wall a Solar Hot water Monitoring System designed by me and 2 inched away have a panel that tells me how much water is in the water tanks that feed the Toilets to save water, Yes this was though out and done by me after the third stroke , It make me happy to see my brain is still thinking, I''' see If I can stick pic on the Forum.

That microwave journal article is promoting ESE devices - a well understood scam. For example, the ESE industry tried to get their device listed in the National Electrical Code. It was roundly rejected. ESE manufacturers then tried to bankrupt the non-profit NFPA (publishers of the NEC) by suing. The Bryan Panel Report resulted:Clearly noted was that ESE manufacturers spend massively promoting devices that will magically discharge the air. And not one science based study could be found that proves / justifies the myth. The report said the industry should do at least one research study to justify their product. None exist.The ESE lightning protection technology as currently developed in the installation of complete systems does not appear to be scientifically and technically sound in relation to the claimed areas of protection or the essentials of the grounding system.
Just as a note. Last Summer when out NEW (under warranty) Eat room TV shi.t itself (HDMI Board) there repair man told me he had replace at least 10 boards either HDMI or the complete board and in each case all customers has Foxtel Now Foxtel have their dish on the Room now I dont have Foxtel but have plenty of Dishes but all of them are on the ground and because of this you can see how vicious lightning is and considering I have dishes from 2.3M to 80 CM I have plenty of area to attract static-induced discharge .

Well Energex just finished replacing out Underground Mains that were 90 M long and the original ones were 16MM 3 phase. also they noted on my Pillar we had no earth electrode so now we have 70MM underground mains not 16MM plus we have a New earth electrode as they said the earth was a border line of not being good at our pillar. I also spoke about earthing my 9 dishes and he recommend to earth them with 16 MM cable and show me the lug that you can buy for a 16mm cable for standard 2.4MM earth rod
