3. Explain how a lightning conductor works.
Answers
Answer:
The lightning conductor works on the principle of induction. When a fully charged cloud passes by the building, the conductor gets charged oppositely through the process of induction and this acquired charge moves to the earth through the earthing system.

Explanation :
A lightning conductor is a device used to protect buildings from the damaging effect of the lightning. ... The lightning conductor works on the principle of induction, such that when a charged cloud passes by the building, the conductor gets charge X opposite to that of the cloud through the process of induction.
A lightning conductor consists of a number of pointed conductors fixed to the top of a building and connected to a thick copper wire. ... When a negatively charged cloud passes over the building, it induces a positive charge on the pointed ends of the lightning conductor and an equal negative charge at the metal plate.
