Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of lightning strikes globally, with significant fatalities reported, particularly in India.
Lightning rods are essential in preventing strikes by directing them safely to the ground, but their effectiveness depends on proper installation and maintenance.
What is a Lightning Rod?
A lightning rod is an electrical conductor installed on building tops to divert lightning strikes.
Lightning prefers the path of least resistance, and the rod’s pointed shape creates a stronger electric field, ionising the air and offering a route for the current to flow.
