I would check the fuse holder, if you can get access to the back side of the fuse panel.  Maybe you'll find a burned wire or bad connector.  I don't know about hondas but ford and gm have fusable links to handle high amperage connections. 

And remember..

Don't let the smoke out of your equiptment..it doesn't go back in.

You might try posting your problem on these Honda Forums.  There are alot of people on these sites that know their Hondas inside and out.

first of all, get your hands on a battery charger and connect it to the battery. it sounds like you have a weak battery to begin with, so going around trying to trouble shoot with a battery below proper voltage won't help you. if a battery charger is unavailable to you, find another car and hook up jumper cables as if you were going to jump start the car.
then turn your ignition on (not necessarily start the car) and go check ALL your fuses.....left and right side fuse panels, and any fusible link you can find under the hood. use a test light (yes, really....you won't hurt anything) to check every last fuse you can find. if everything's good, there's no reason why you should not be able to start your car with your key unless your ignition barrel is faulty, or your ignition harness wires are cut (ie. check to see if you there's a starter disable of some form still in there).
the only remaining possibilities are that your factory immobilizer is not recognizing your key (unlikely, but who knows?), or there's something wrong with your car that is not alarm related. good luck!
all problems can be resolved with a hammer

I got all the accessories to power back up..the battery is reading 11.30 volts..and it is not starting. I'm thinking the battery may be trash because I've been having trouble with it for a few weeks now. When I try to crank it-it drops down to 10 volts.

When you try to crank the car over, does it make a click, click click or is there nothing at all ? If there's nothing at all it sounds like the ICM in the distributor ( Ignition Control Module ). If it clicks and no start, it's battery related. I've had many Accord's that have had the ICM go and with the electrical surge you had, it may have damaged the ICM.

No it tries to start..but it is not enough juice...then after a few tries of that it clicks and it doesn't start. Right now the battery is at 11.3 volts. I was going to try and have it jumped..but i think the battery is gone because I've been having problems with it for a while now.

I haven't got the new fuse yet..there are wires all of my driver side dash preventing me from driving safely...I'm going to get the fuse today though. The car is working properly though..So thanks for all the help y'all.
