Answer:

Lightning conductor is a metal rod placed on a building and connected with the ground below to protect the building from being damaged by lightning. Its purpose is to offer a low resistance path to lightening and allow it to pass to the ground without impacting the building.The lightning diversion theory states that a lighting rod protects a building by providing a conductive pathway of the charge to the Earth. ... By diverting the charge through the lightning protection system, the building is spared of the damage associated with a large quantity of electric charge passing through it.
