## Discrepancy

ENROUTE, THE PILOT REPORTED A LIGHTNING STRIKE AND LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER.  THE PILOT CONTACTED ATC, DECLARED AN EMERGENCY AND LANDED AT THE NEAREST AIRPORT WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE INSPECTED THE ACFT, ENGINES AND PROPELLERS NO EVIDENCE OF LIGHTNING STRIKE WAS FOUND.  THE ACFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.
