The research is relevant because it is important to record information about telluric currents flowing in the Earth and study them. When analyzing the results of the study of telluric currents, it is determined that abrupt changes occur in the telluric field before earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, or tsunamis. This suggests that the observation of telluric currents is a fairly weighty basis for their further study in terms of predicting upcoming natural phenomena. The volume of the research is significant because it has the potential to revolutionize the way we predict natural disasters. By studying telluric currents, we can gain a better understanding of how the Earth’s crust behaves before and during these events. This information could be used to develop early warning systems that could save lives. The paper provides an overview of scientific and technical information about telluric currents flowing in the Earth, the nature of their manifestations, registration methods, and interpretation methods. An overview of scientific and historical materials on the study of telluric currents is given. The technology for performing the work is given from modern textbooks and scientific articles. A microprocessor device for recording information about telluric currents has been developed. A scientific experiment was conducted to confirm the operability of this device. The direction of telluric current flow was determined in an open area. Based on the results obtained, graphs of the dependences of signals from grounding conductors on time were constructed. An analysis of the numerical component of the graphs was conducted.By developing a device that can record telluric currents, scientists can gain a better understanding of how the Earth’s crust behaves before and during these events. This information could be used to develop early warning systems that could save lives.
Key words: microprocessor device, telluric currents, grounding, earthquake.
