For fiber installations, be sure that your loops are not placed where
flashes will distract drivers or people performing potentially dangerous
activities.

Subject: [asterisk-users] interesting comment. New Physics?

While browsing about, found http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/TDM400P,
where I found this comment:

"Here's a tip passed on from an old telephone engineer. Where your copper
2-wire cable approaches the building, underground, finish with several large
loops, about a metre in diameter, laid on top of each other. Fast moving,
high energy spikes will spin off the outside of the loop as they speed into
your installation, reducing the amount of energy your spike trap has to
absorb. The coil shouldn't have enough loops to create any induction
effects."

I am grateful for this introduction to the New Physics.

Just be sure not to stand on the periphery of the loop, when lightning
strikes nearby.  <g>
