Question

Why is the upper end of a lightning conductor fragmented into several strips​

Answer 1

Answer:

HEY MATE,

HERE'S YOUR ANSWER.

=> There are two metallic strips at the bottom of the wire. The upper end of the wire is connected to a metal disc. A body that is positively charged is touched to the metal disc, so that the charge is transferred to the metal strips through the wire, and they diverge from each other on gaining a like charge.
