how does a lighting conductor protects a building ?

Answers

Answered by nayominimesha37

Answer:

lightning rod and its associated grounding conductors provide protection because they divert the current from nonconducting parts of the structure, allowing it to follow the path of least resistance and pass harmlessly through the rod and its cables.

Answered by riddhi5420

Answer:

The lightning diversion theory states that a lighting rod protects a building by providing a conductive pathway of the charge to the Earth. ... The lightning rod and the attached cable and ground pole provide a low resistance pathway from the region above the building to the ground below.
