This community service program aimed to improve electrical safety literacy among older adults through education on lightning risk and household grounding systems. The program used a participatory educational method consisting of partner needs identification, preparation of learning materials and instruments, pre-test, visual education, grounding system explanation, interactive discussion, post-test, and follow-up reflection. The materials covered misconceptions about smartphones and lightning, the function of grounding, household electrical safety, circuit breakers, and safe actions during thunderstorms. Evaluation was conducted using five indicators. The results showed improvements across all indicators: understanding of lightning misconceptions increased from 40% to 90%, grounding function from 35% to 88%, electrical safety from 50% to 92%, actions during lightning from 45% to 85%, and household installation understanding from 30% to 80%. The average increase reached 47%. These results indicate that simple, visual, and contextual education can improve older adults' understanding of grounding and lightning safety. The program supports community-based electrical safety literacy and encourages families to check household electrical installations with qualified technicians.
