Lightning conductor

Explanation:

A lightning conductor is a very good conductor of electric current. It is a device usually mounted atop high buildings, so it can transfer the electric charge which hits the building due to lightening. It protects the building from the electric charge. It takes the shock before the lightning strikes the building, as it stands above it.

It is made of materials such as copper or aluminum. The upper end of the lightning conductor is made of pointed spikes. The lower end is buried in the ground to discharge the electricity.
