Further to Mac's and Rob's comments, I know of an incident where some home
entertainment equipment was destroyed when lightning caused an intense
overvoltage condition. Fortunately, the destruction was limited to, in this
case, a then-expensive DVD recorder/player. It did not ignite the cabinet
but did cause heavy charring below the device.
All other items on that circuit survived with no damage.
It could be that an argument could be made that owners should disconnect
from shore power with signs of an approaching electrical storm (or at least
trip the AC breakers inside the coach?)
