How does a Lightning Conductor Work? Explained with Different Types & Diagrams.

Lightning can cause the widespread destruction of various buildings and the loss of humans and animals. There would be more threats if the building is taller. The lightning increases the heat in the materials to high temperatures causing a fire in the building. Hence, a device called Lightning Conductor protects the building from lightning.

A metal rod placed on top of a building to protect it from a lightning strike is known as a lightning conductor. This conductor is struck first in lightning without hitting the building directly, preventing fire or electrocution. It provides a harmless and easy path for the lightning energy to pass into the ground without damaging the structure of the buildings.
