lightning rod
a lightning rod as spelled in us and australia or lightning conductor in uk is a metal rod or metallic object mounted on top of a building, electrically bonded using a wire or electrical conductor to interface with ground earth through an electrode, engineered to protect the building in the event of lightning strike. If lightning targets the building it will preferentially strike the rod and be conducted to ground through the wire instead of passing through the building where it could start a fire or cause electrocution.
a lightning rod is a single component in a lightning protection system. Lightning rods are also called air terminals or strike termination devices. The lighting rod requires a connection to earth to perform its protective function. Lightning rods come in many different forms, including hollow, solid, pointed, rounded, flat strips or even bristle brush-like: copper or aluminium. The main attribute of all lightning rods is they are conductive.
lightning protection systems
a lightning protection system is designed to protect a structure from damage due to lightning strikes by intercepting such strikes and safely passing their extremely high voltage currents to the ground earth. A lightning protection system includes a network of air terminals, bonding conductors, and ground electrodes which are designed to provide a low impedance path to ground for potential strikes.
lightning protection systems are used to prevent or lessen damage to structures done by lightning strikes. It mitigates the fire hazard which lightning strikes pose to structures. A lightning protection system provides a low-impedance path for the lightning current to lessen the heating effect of current flowing through flammable structural materials. If lightning travels through porous and water-saturated materials,these parts of a building may literally explode if their water content is flashed to steam by heat produced from lightning current.
because of the high energy and current levels associated with lightning ,currents can be in excess of 150,000 amps and the very rapid rise time of a lightning strike, no lightning protection system can guarantee absolute safety from lightning. Lightning current will divide to follow every conductive path to ground, and even the divided current can cause damage. Secondary "side-flashes" can be enough to ignite a fire, blow apart brick, stone, or concrete, or injure occupants within a structure or building. However, the benefits of basic lightning protection systems have been evident for well over a century.
the parts of a lightning protection system are air terminals lightning rods or strike termination devices, bonding conductors, ground terminals also known as ‘’ground’ or "earthing" rods, plates, or mesh), and all of the connectors and supports to complete the system. The air terminals are typically arranged at or along the upper points of a roof structure, and are electrically bonded together by bonding conductors (called "down conductors" or "down leads"), which are connected by the most direct route to one or more grounding or earthing terminals.
connections to the earth electrodes must not only have low resistance, but must have low self-inductance. An example of a structure vulnerable to lightning is a wooden barn. When lightning strikes the barn, the wooden structure and its contents, may be ignited by the heat generated by lightning current conducted through parts of the structure. A basic lightning protection system would provide a conductive path between an air terminal and earth, so that most of the lightning's current will follow the path of the lightning protection system, with substantially less current travelling through flammable materials.
the majority of lightning protection systems in use today are of the traditional franklin design. The fundamental principle used in franklin-type lightning protections systems is to provide a sufficiently low impedance path for the lightning so that it travels through to reach ground without damaging the building. This is accomplished by surrounding the building in a kind of faraday cage. A system of lightning protection conductors and lightning rods are installed on the roof of the building to intercept any lightning before it strikes the building.
