Chinese term

电力风暴

Chinese to English Tech/Engineering Engineering (general)
“不要在有电力风暴、潮湿天气或雷雨天气使用本产品” (the device is 线缆寻线仪). Is the "电力风暴" only a more complex way to say "雷暴" (thunderstorm)?

Thanks,
Paul

Yes, you are right - simply a thunderstorm Anyway, a thunderstorm is also known as an electrical storm:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunderstorm
"A thunderstorm, also known as an electrical storm, a lightning storm, or a thundershower, is a type of storm characterized by the presence of lightning and its acoustic effect on the Earth's atmosphere known as thunder."

Electric Storm

Думаю, что это синонимы, только данное слово более "техническое" и в-основном переводится как electric storm.
