WRF-ELEC problems

I'm trying to use WRF - ELEC to simulate the lightning initiation and discharge processes within a region under a two - layer nested grid. The data is sourced from ERA5 reanalysis data. I've successfully run the entire process and finally generated the wrfout file.

However, although I've enabled the parameter settings related to lightning initiation and discharge in the NSSL microphysics scheme, all the physical parameters related to electricity in the final results are zero. This includes things like charge mixing ratio, inductive/non - inductive lightning initiation amount, etc. It seems that the electrical processes didn't actually run.

Can you give me some suggestions? I'm using the WRF 4.6.1 version and the WPS 4.3 version.

Just to add, this is an RSL file, from which it can be seen that there is absolutely no output of electrical - related physical quantities during the process.
