Smells kinda dry and vaguely fishy/metallic. It’s very distinct, you know it when you smell it.
Should be noted however that it’s not very healthy to breathe it in and large and/or repeated exposures can cause respiratory damage. Some static electricity is probably fine but I don’t want to encourage someone to go out there and learn what it smells like first hand
When I first started learning how to weld, I always wore a respirator because a lot of the fumes can be dangerous. So anyway, we come back to the shop after our lunch break and my first thought was damn, what’s that smell?
Ozone is the smell of an electrical fire
Or poliester fleece or blanket when you hear little sparks.
Some will remember playing with a CRT TV screen 👀
I remember the feeling and the sound, but not scent.
