 Ways to Avoid Electric Shock During Rainy Seasons Rainy seasons dramatically increase the risk of electrical fatalities across India and the world. Wet surfaces, flooding, leaking equipment, and compromised insulation transform ordinary electrical systems into life-threatening hazards. As a professional electrical engineer, I’ve often witnessed how a neglected junction box or an exposed conductor becomes dangerous when rainwater seeps in. This article comprehensively explains ways to avoid electric shock during rainy seasons , the major threats during rainfall , and five-year data of fatal electric shock incidents , with engineering insights, historical case studies, and preventive methods. “Electricity is really just organized lightning.” — George Carlin “The scientist is not a person who gives the right answers, he is one who asks the right questions.” — Claude Lévi-Strauss “Safety isn't expensive, it's priceless.” — Unknown 1.
